Midway though the elims, the dominant Eagles are soaring in the stats sheet. With Espejo emerging as the leading scorer, the four-time UAAP MVP and Rivera also pace the spiking department with 60.71 and 48.61 success, respectively. Polvorosa is also the league’s top setter with a 10.62 norm per set while Sumanguid leads the receivers with 58.44 percent efficiency. Ateneo closes out its elims campaign against National U, also struggling with a 1-2 slate, on Sept. 30. The top four teams after the elims will advance to the crossover semis with the winners of the best-of-three series disputing the crown in another best-of-three affair.
