In a game marked by long and exciting rallies and thunderous spikes, especially in the opening set, the top-seeded Dolphins proved steadier in the crunch – thanks largely to Maron Alfiler who rose to occasion each time the team needed him most.
The Dolphins will face No. 2 Lyceum of the Philippines University-Batangas in a one-game face-off for the title on Monday in the event also presented by Angel’s Pizza.
The Pirates arranged a title duel with the Dolphins after overpowering the University of Batangas Brahmans, 25-15, 25-13, 25-18, in a showdown between two premier schools of the city.
It will be an all-Batangas schools in the final of the women’s division also on Monday as UB and LPU-B bested their respective rivals in the knockout semis.
Drawing inspired game from Lovely Hernandez, the top-seeded UB Lady Brahmans demolished Philippines Women’s University, 25-15, 25-13, 25-18, while the Hazel Samonte-led Lady Pirates downed the PCU Lady Dolphins, 25-23, 24-26, 25-22, 25-21.
