FEU begins its quest for redemption in UAAP Season 88 men’s volleyball as the Tamaraws face the DLSU Green Spikers on Saturday, February 14, at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City.

 

Match time is at 11:00 a.m., with the matchup streaming on the Pilipinas Live app. It will also be shown on the UAAP Varsity Channel.

Last season, FEU came close to ending its 14-year title drought but fell short against the five-time defending NU Bulldogs in a winner-take-all Game 3 via a 16-25, 26-28, 23-25 loss. 

The Tamaraws had finished the elimination round as the top seed with a 13-2 record, taking down fourth-seeded Green Spikers before ultimately losing to National U.

This season, the Morayta-based squad  returns with key players Dryx Saavedra and Mikko Espartero leading the charge as the Tamaraws aim to rewrite their story and finally claim a championship.

FEU has also held the upper hand over DLSU, winning five straight games—including playoff showdowns—over the past two seasons.
