KURASHIKI of Japan takes the first of its two chances for the second championship berth as the visitors take on the PLDT High Speed Hitters—the only other team standing—in the Premier Volleyball League Invitational Conference Friday at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig City.
But even if they do hurdle the Japanese, the High Speed Hitters would still need to hope the former would drop their last semis match to the Cool Smashers at the close of the semifinals Friday. Having seen the High Speed Hitters play, Akane Hiraoka, who took the game’s top honors with a nine-point effort against F2 Logistics, said: “PLDT has tall players, we have to focus on defense and receive and we shouldn’t be discouraged.”
“But it’s more on the challenge to play a Japanese team. Hindi na namin hawak ang chances namin, so we’ll focus on the opportunity to play a strong, quick team like Kurashiki and gain experience. Basta, gagalingan namin at bahala na kung saan kami dadalhin,” he added.
