The UST Growling Tigresses begin their road to redemption in UAAP Season 88 against the DLSU Lady Archers.
For the UST Growling Tigresses, Season 88 is about unfinished business.
A year ago, UST looked poised to defend its Season 86 crown, only to stumble against the dynastic NU Lady Bulldogs in a bruising three-game finals.
That heartbreak has since fueled head coach Haydee Ong and her squad as UST tangles with the DLSU Lady Archers in their UAAP women’s basketball tournament opener on Saturday, September 27, at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
Match time is at 7:00 p.m.

Kent Pastrana and former MVP Eka Soriano headline the redemption-seeking UST that also include reigning Girls MVP Barby Dajao, Fil-Australian guard Erinn McAlary and sophomores Karylle Sierba and Kyla Relliquette.
With a chip on their shoulders, the Growling Tigresses aim to reclaim the championship they lost last season.
