The UE Red Warriors are looking for a quick turnaround and break a two-year, 22-game losing skid in UAAP men’s volleyball, though the FEU Tamaraws stand as a tough test.
For the UE Red Warriors, the climb has been long — and the wait even longer.
Still searching for their first victory in the UAAP Season 88 men’s volleyball, the Red Warriors also look to finally halt a 22-game losing streak when they face the FEU Tamaraws on Wednesday, February 18, at the UST Quadricentennial Pavilion.
Game time is at 3:00 p.m., with live streaming available on the Pilipinas Live app. It will also be aired on the UAAP Varsity Channel.

UE came agonizingly close to breaking through in its opener but absorbed a 21-25, 25-23, 23-25, 25-23, 11-15 heartbreaker to the UP Fighting Maroons.
Raquim Aceron poured in a team-high 26 points in a losing effort, while Jan Libot added 15 markers and Xjhann Camaymayan chipped in 11.
The Red Warriors’ last victory came on March 17, 2024, when they defeated UP in five sets during Season 86.
Now with another opportunity to enter the Season 88 win column — and snap a two-year drought — UE must overcome a formidable FEU side that is coming off a dominant 25-19, 25-22, 25-19 sweep of the DLSU Green Spikers.
