On Focus: 6th Shakey's V-league Best-of-3 SEMIS ADAMSON v.s. SAN SEBASTIAN

One's victory is another's heartbreak.

Defending champion Adamson University Lady Falcons will be put to test when they battle 2nd-seeded San Sebastian College Lady Stags in their best-of-3 semifinals series in the 6th Shakey's V-league starting Thursday at The Arena in San Juan City.

Both teams will pour their hearts out in this battle of the champions- San Sebastian being the beltholder in the 5th Shakey's V-league 2nd conference- to prove who is better, stronger and deserves to be called the "best of the bests".

Reigning MVP "The Blaze" Nerissa Bautista will front the charge for the Lady Falcons alongside with Sang Laguilles, Jill Gustilo, Angela Benting and super rookie Pau Soriano.

On the other hand, San Sebastian will fire it out behind superspiker Thai import Jeng Bualee, NCAA MVP Laurence Ann "The Silencer" Latigay and marquee blocker Sasa Devanadera.

The Lady Stags appear favored to bag the series as they have beaten Adamson twice this conference. But the Lady Falcons are out to banner their "never-say-die" power.

On Focus: 6th Shakey's V-league Best-of- 3 SEMIS UST vs FEU

The Semifinal battle is off. Four teams will combat for the crown. Who will prevail? Who will weep?

One match will feature the league leader against the struggling squad.

University of Sto. Tomas pulled off a clean slate to sweep the quarterfinals and headed to the front seat in the semis. While Far Eastern University suffered a defeat from Adamson in their spotfight. Thus, hurting their confidence.

Guest players Jean Balse and scoring machine Michelle Carolino will command for the Tigresses when they slug it out with the Lady Tams in their best-of-3 series beginning Thursday.

UST has swept all their games prior to semis, emerging as top favorite to enter the Finals. But FEU will try to regain their form that was imperceptible during the quarterfinals where they had struggled, losing games in straight sets.

To lead the charge for the Lady Tams are Rachel Daquis, Shaira Gonzales and the unconventional might- Mayette Carolino who will face her older sister Michelle once more.
