ATENEO de Manila gets the chance to test its real
strength against Adamson, and hopes to notch its third straight
victory to take solo lead in the Shakey’s V-League Season 5 at The
Arena in San Juan on Sunday.
After trouncing Lyceum and St.
Benilde via straight-set romps, the Lady Eagles are expected to
encounter stiff resistance from the Falcons, who dropped a tough
three-setter in their sudden death match with the Far Eastern
University (FEU) Tams for the UAAP crown recently.
Ma. Rosario Soriano, the leading
server and blocker in the early going of the league sponsored by
Shakey’s, and import Jindarat Kanchana of Thailand head Ateneo’s
bid in its 4 p.m. encounter with Adamson, which will be bannered by
guest player Neriza Bautista and mainstays Jacqueline So, Rissa
Laguilles, Angela Benting and Michelle Segodine.
Karla Bello, one of the
Ateneo’s top setters, is expected to suit up after missing the
Ateneo-St. Benilde game.
Equally interesting is the 2 p.m.
clash between FEU and Lyceum with the Lady Tams hoping to come out
better and stronger after barely thwarting a stubborn St. Benilde
side in five sets last Tuesday.
