Other than watching the 2008 Beijing Olympics on TV and following the games on the net, here are some collegiate basketball and volleyball games to watch out for this week. Taken from the Multiply blog of sports writer Mr. Theodore Jurado:

1. August 14, 2008 - Thursday 4pm: UST vs ADMU (UAAP Seniors Basketball)
   Still mired at 5th place, the Growling Tigers need to pull through over the mighty Blue Eagles to keep within distance of the No. 4 slot. Japs and Jervy are getting into the groove!
2. August 15, 2008 - Friday 2pm: CSJL vs JRU (NCAA Seniors Basketball)
   The only playdate at The Arena, San Juan. Jose Rizal will try to keep their hold at the No. 2 slot against a fresh Letran squad. Heavy bombers lost badly against the Knights during the opening day.
3. August 16, 2008 - Saturday 11am: CSB vs SSC-R (NCAA Women’s Volleyball)
   Round 2. The Lady Blazers hope to bounce back from their four set loss to the Lady Stags during the first round. San Sebastian’s only single set loss was from CSB. All of The Lady Stags’ 5 of 6 wins were won in straight sets.
4. August 16, 2008 - Saturday 1pm: FEU vs DLSZ (UAAP Juniors Basketball)
   The baby Tams stunned the Blue Eaglets in double overtime. Will they be the first team to beat the junior Archers? or will the DLSZ continue their winning streak?
5. August 17, 2008 - Sunday 930am: UE vs ADMU (UAAP Juniors Volleyball)
   Venue: UE Gym. The Blue Eaglets are surprising while the junior Red Shirts are at their usual best. Will there be a huge upset? There’s a lucky charm out there!
