GVIL Final Four off the wraps

John Bryan Ulanday - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines — Unbeaten heavyweights collide as National U-Nazareth School, California Academy, Bacolod Tay Tung High School and Naga College Foundation figure in the 2023 Shakey’s Girls Volleyball Invitational League knockout Final Four today at the San Andres Gym Manila.

After wiping out their respective groups and quarterfinal counterparts, the remaining four teams cross paths in a semis cast that features three provincial squads against a lone city bet with the coveted finals seats at stake.

NU-NS and California Academy from Antipolo get the first crack in the opener at 9 a.m. followed by the brewing rivalry down south pitting Bacolod Tay Tung High School and Naga College Foundation at 12 noon.

Carrying the biggest bounty on their heads, the Lady Bullpups as the reigning UAAP juniors champion brace for an all-out resistance in the win-or-go-home setto of the 16-team GVIL backed by Shakey’s Pizza Parlor, Potato Corner, Peri-Peri and R&B Tea with the City of Manila as government partner.
