Colegio de San Juan de Letran swept Mapua University, 25-16, 25-21, 25-20, to officially clinch a spot in the NCAA Season 100 men's volleyball Final Four on Wednesday at the Filoil Centre in San Juan.
The victory improved the Knights' standing to 12-6 to book the last ticket to the semifinals, while fellow Final Four-bound Cardinals slipped to 14-4 to cap the elimination round.
Aside from Letran and Mapua, De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde and Arellano University are also in the Final Four.
Vince Himzon led the Knights with 15 points built on 13 attacks and two blocks, while Bembem Bautista and Dave Lardizabal chipped in 11 and 10 points, respectively.
Arjay Ramos top-scored Mapua with 10 points, while Barbie San Andres had eight points as the Cardinals closed the second round with back-to-back losses.
While the Knights will take on the fourth spot in the semis, their opponent will officially be determined by Friday as Benilde takes on Lyceum of the Philippines University for its final game.
