Rivals with the other Green and Gold teams

• The De La Salle Lady Spikers and FEU Lady Tamaraws face off for seven times (Seasons 61, 63, 64, 65, 66, 71, 80) in the UAAP finals most recently during Season 80. Adding special flavor to this rivalry is having FEU alumnus and multi-decorated coach Ramil De Jesus calling the shots for the Lady Spikers.
