PLDT drew strength from Savannah Davison as it denied Akari’s third-set fightback, 25-16, 25-16, 25-23, for its first win in the Premier Volleyball League (PVL) Second All-Filipino Conference at the Filoil EcoOil Centre in San Juan City, Oct. 19.
The High Speed Hitters bounced back after their sorry opening game loss against the Cignal HD Spikers and hung tough until the end to turn back the Chargers for a 1-1 record.
Davison poured 19 points on 14 attacks, three blocks and two service aces to lead the balanced production of PLDT.
Dell Palomata and Erika Santos delivered 13 and 12 points, respectively, while Royse Tubino finished with 11 markers of her own.
Trailing 12-16 in the third set after Palomata’s back-to-back points, Akari went on a 6-2 counter to put the match in its first deadlock.
The game was tied four more times and even saw the Chargers take over the lead thrice before Mika Reyes ended it for the last time with a drop ball, 22-all.
From there, the High Speed Hitters took control with a 3-1 finishing kick capped by Davison’s crosscourt shot.
Meanwhile, Akari absorbed a 1-1 record as its third-set surge fell short, failing to carry over the momentum from its impressive opening victory over the F2 Logistics.
Faith Nisperos and Dindin Manabat led the way for the Chargers in the losing end with 11 and 10 points, respectively.
