SINCE Roger Gorayeb took over as San Sebastian coach in the mid-80s, the Lady Stags have never been dislodged in the Top 2 of the NCAA women’s volleyball tournament.
For the first time ever, defending champion San Sebastian is facing a ‘do or die’ situation as it takes on early semifinalist Emilio Aguinaldo College in the continuation of the elimination round today at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
The Lady Stags and the Lady Generals cross paths at 2 p.m.
“Sana ibigay ng mga bata ang lahat ng makakaya nila para makapasok kami sa semifinals,” said Gorayeb after San Sebastian dropped a 22-25, 20-25, 17-25 decision to Letran last Friday.
San Beda College seeks to formalize its second straight Final Four stint against Lyceum at 9 a.m.
The Lady Stags are in a three-way tie with the Lady Knights and the Lioness in third spot with identical 5-3 records.
San Beda hopes to rebound from a 10-25, 22-25, 22-25 loss to league-leader University of Perpetual Help System Dalta last Friday.
EAC, which is in the semis for the second consecutive season, is just hoping to improve its second-running 6-2 mark.
Whatever the result of their final elimination round game, the Lady Pirates (4-4) have already booted out of ‘Final Four’ contention. (Theodore P. Jurado)
