Rica Rivera carried off the court after apparent knee injury


The University of Santo Tomas Golden Tigresses could be without starting libero Rica Rivera for Season 80 after the Cebuana twisted her knee during the first set of their match against the Ateneo de Manila University Lady Eagles, Sunday afternoon.

The UST senior came up limping after rolling on the floor following a dig. She then had to be lifted back to the dugout for further observation.

Rivera has a history of knee injuries, having missed Season 77 due to an ACL tear in her left knee.
