MANILA, Philippines–National University’s winning run spilled over to the second round, destroying the rebuilding former champion La Salle, 25-21, 25-20, 25-17, Thursday night to remain the team to beat in the UAAP Season 84 women’s volleyball at Mall of Asia Arena.

With a host of players who have ripened in recent years, the Lady Bulldogs ran roughshod on the Lady Spikers to score their eighth victory in as many games.
