MANILA, PHILIPPINES – The UAAP community received a heartbreaking announcement on Tuesday, April 7, as the league decided to terminate Season 82.
Before the cancelation, league action had been put on hold since March 10 due to the coronavirus pandemic in the country.
Volleyball players were quick to react, with many clearly devastated like UST stalwart Ej Laure, who had hoped for a major comeback after a two-year layoff in women’s volleyball action.

The cancellation is something we all did not see coming. This will surely hurt for a while but we will be back, better and more prepared. #UAAPSeason82Volleyball
