San Beda fended off a fierce challenge put up by Mapua to post a 25-16, 25-15, 22-25, 20-25, 15-9 win on Friday to book at least a playoff for a Final Four berth in the women’s division of the 92nd NCAA volleyball tournament at the Filoil Flying V Arena in San Juan City.

Francesca Racraquin fired 16 hits, all of which came on kills, while Satrianni Espiritu scattered 13 points including a match-best five on blocks to help push the Red Spikers closer to barging into the Final Four with a 6-3 record.
