Creamline inched closer to a rare Grand Slam feat after booking a finals berth at the expense of Cignal, 25-18, 29-27, 17-25, 25-20, in the Premier Volleyball League Invitational Conference at the Mall of Asia Arena late Monday, Sept. 9.
Still fresh from capturing the Reinforced Conference title last week, the Cool Smashers continued their winning ways behind the efforts of Erica Staunton and Michele Gumabao and Bernadeth Pons to move closer to a season sweep of all three conference titles.
Staunton torched the net anew with 27 points highlighted by 25 kills, while Gumabao provided leadership and unloaded 16 attacks to finish 19 points. Pons, who won Finals and Conference MVP in the Reinforced, chipped in 15 points.
