The DLSU Lady Archers go for an upset against the undefeated Ateneo Blue Eagles in the UAAP Season 88 women's basketball tournament.
The DLSU Lady Archers will try to avoid a 0-3 start as they go up against the Ateneo Blue Eagles in UAAP Season 88 women’s basketball on Sunday, October 5.
Gametime is 7:00 p.m. at the Mall of Asia Arena.
La Salle is still hunting for its first win after suffering a heartbreaking 73-72 defeat to FEU in the last outing.
Xyla Lubrico led the charge with 16 points, while Kyla Go contributed 10 points and eight rebounds, but the Lady Archers came up just short down the stretch.
Now, the Taft-based squad faces an even tougher test against Ateneo, which has opened its campaign at 2-0 behind the dominance of two-time MVP Kacey Dela Rosa.
For La Salle, playing with urgency and relying on balanced contributions from Lubrico, Go, and the rest of the roster will be key in finally breaking through — and doing it against their biggest rival would make the victory all the more meaningful.
