Determined to make a difference in next year’s UAAP when its time to play host,  National University has embarked on a massive development program for its  varsity squads, especially on its women’s basketball team.

With Ever Bilena Cosmetics Inc. joining forces with SM, Save More and Supermart  Group, the Lady Bulldogs are out to challenge perennial finalists Adamson and  Far Eastern University to raise their first-ever championship trophy in the  premier collegiate league.

The mission appears so difficult but coach Paul Du and chief backers Herbert Sy  of SM Group Companies and Ever Bilena chair Dioceldo Sy are convinced their  players have the resilience, courage and talent to win the coveted UAAP crown  next year.

For the coming UAAP season where they hope to make it to the Final Four, the  management has lined up a series of exhibition matches for the Lady Bulldogs,  including a four-game Goodwill series in Taiwan which was arranged by team  manager Mike Tan and Johnson Martines.
