Fresh from an opening day victory, the University of the Philippines seeks to overcome an interesting test against La Salle in the premier volleyball matchup today at the PhilSports Arena.

The Lady Maroons impressed with a 25-20 25-13 25-21 win over UE, anchored on the strength of their battle-tested newcomers Isa Molde, Justine Dorog, and Diana Carlos, alongside notable veterans Nicole Tiamzon and Kathy Bersola.

Against last season's losing finalists, however, Jerry Yee is asking his squad to make adjustments to pull off the win.

Yee says, "Against La Salle, hindi puwede kaming maraming service errors and we have to execute well." 

The Lady Spikers fended off a game Far Eastern University side, 29-27 25-23 25-20, last Wednesday.

Ara Galang, in her return to competitive action after suffering a knee injury, contributed ten points and five digs to lead the Lady Spikers.

The other women's matchup sees NU attempt to bounce back from their disappointing opener against Ateneo. The Lady Bulldogs are to face an Adamson side fresh from a grueling five-set duel against UST.

On the men's side, Ateneo and FEU battle it out to determine who temporarily holds first place, followed by the matchup between Adamson and UE.
