CREAMLINE bucked a second set loss with superior firepower and class to beat Army Black Mamba, 25-21, 23-25, 25-19, 25-17, and set its title drive in motion in the Premier Volleyball League Invitational Conference at the Ynares Center in Antipolo City on Thursday.
But Kobe Shinwa of Japan and King Whale of Thailand won’t be seeing action until Monday when they clash in an explosive twin bill capped by the Creamline-Cignal rematch at the SM Mall of Asia Arena. “We were able to recover from the second set since Army won’t give up that easily,” said Creamline coach Sherwin Meneses, so confident of his wards’ ability to bounce back.
But it was only in the last two sets that Creamline reasserted its might with Carlos soaring for a slew of attacks on both sides, Valdez unleashing her trademark power hits and Galanza backing them up with her own variety of kills. A mis-receive by Creamline led to a Bunag putaway and a rare Army lead but after Carlos blasted in her 15th point against two defenders to set up a tense finish, the Lady Troopers clinched the next two points—and the set—aided by their rivals’ costly blunder at endgame.
