REIGNING NCAA champion College of Saint Benilde tangles with Mapua, while University of Perpetual Help System Dalta tests NAASCU holders Enderun Colleges’ mettle today in the V-League Collegiate Challenge at the Paco Arena.

The Lady Blazers go for their third straight win to keep within reach of the pacesetters in the 10 a.m. duel with the Lady Cardinals.

Far Eastern University and University of the East still share the top spot at 5-0.

Mapua hopes to improve its 1-2 record.

The Lady Altas (2-2) hope to rebound from their tough five-set setback to the Lady Warriors last Aug. 30 as they mix it up with the Lady Titans, who also tote a 1-2 card at 12 noon.

Meanwhile UE’s prized recruit, Jelai Gajero, was found to have suffered an ACL tear in her left knee based on the results of the MRI tests and is ruled out for the rest of the V-League.

In men’s play, unbeaten Ateneo faces its toughest test thus far as it battles NCAA titlist Perpetual in a key matchup at 4 p.m.

UAAP champions National University and La Salle, with identical 2-1 slates, clash at 2 p.m.
