There’s no stopping and denying the UAAP women’s volleyball dynasty of National University.

The NU Lady Bulldogs completed a dominant title defense with a 25-19, 25-18, 25-19 sweep of the DLSU Lady Spikers in Game 2 of the UAAP Season 87 women’s volleyball Finals on Wednesday at the Mall of Asia Arena.

With the win, NU clinched the best-of-three series, 2-0, to repeat as UAAP champions — the team's third crown in the last four seasons.

The Lady Bulldogs are the first team to win back-to-back women’s titles since La Salle’s own three-peat from Season 78 to 80.

Powered by the core trio of MVP Bella Belen, Alyssa Solomon, and Camilla Lamina — all now three-time UAAP champions — the Lady Bulldogs cemented their legacy as the faces of NU’s golden era.

NU completed a clean 8-0 sweep against fellow Final Four teams this season, including a 4-0 domination of the second-seeded Lady Spikers.

From their resurgence in Season 84 to their continued dominance in Season 87, the Lady Bulldogs have officially redefined the women’s volleyball landscape — and they may not be done yet.
