MANILA, Philippines — Chenie Tagaod drew inspiration from Choco Mucho’s breakthrough win over Creamline in the 2024 PVL All-Filipino Conference as she led Far Eastern University’s straight-set stunner over National University to force a decider in the UAAP Season 86 women’s volleyball Final Four on Saturday at Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Tagaod led the Lady Tamaraws’ collective effort to end the No. 1 Lady Bulldogs’ seven-game winning streak, 25-23, 25-17, 25-23, and inch a win closer to the Finals.

MANILA, Philippines — The Far Eastern University Lady Tamaraws proved that they are more than just a darkhorse contender after stunning the top-seeded National University Lady Bulldogs in straight sets to inch closer to the UAAP Season 86 women’s volleyball Finals.

FEU stayed true to its promise that it won’t be contented with just a Final Four comeback, dominating NU, 25-23, 25-17, 25-23, to force a do-or-die Final Four match on Saturday at Smart Araneta Coliseum.

MANILA, Philippines–Far Eastern University showed up with the best version of itself and never looked this good.

Running the risk of ending their season completely, the Lady Tamaraws practically outperformed themselves by downing the National University Lady Bulldogs, 25-23, 25-17, 25-23, on Saturday night to move a step closer to the UAAP Season 86 women’s volleyball finals.

MANILA, Philippines — Buds Buddin took the matter into his own hands as he unleashed a career-high 32 points including the finishing blows to secure National University’s twice-to-beat bonus after surviving gritty La Salle, 19-25, 25-21, 25-13, 21-25, 16-14, in the UAAP Season 86 men’s volleyball playoff on Saturday at Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Determined to close out the game, Buddin asked for the ball from Owa Retamar and accounted for the Bulldogs’ last three points to fend off the Green Spikers, who they will meet again in the Final Four on Wednesday at the same venue.

MANILA, Philippines–National University (NU) had made its intentions known as early as the time when it knew which team it will face in the Final Four.

The top-ranked Lady Bulldogs essentially said that they wouldn’t want their series against No. 4 Far Eastern University going the full two-game route, saying that not only because they want to, but because they have the game to back it up.
