Chery Tiggo outplayed an erratic PLDT side with a 25-22, 25-16, 25-20 victory on Tuesday night, April 16, to firm up its semifinal bid in the Premier Volleyball League All-Filipino Conference at the Philsports Arena in Pasig City.
Sisters Eya and EJ Laure combined for 17 kills to finish with 12 and 10 points, respectively, in pacing the Crossovers, who stretched their winning run to five games to improve to a 7-2 win-loss record.
The victory not only halted PLDT’s five-game winning streak but created a four-way logjam at second place with the High Speed Hitters, the Creamline Cool Smashers and the Petro Gazz Angels.
They trail solo leader Choco Mucho, which totes an 8-1 mark.
The Crossovers needed one hour and 32 minutes in dispatching the High Speed Hitters, who fell into a maze of errors and gave up 27 points in the process.
Eya Laure also joined forces with Ara Galang in providing Chery Tiggo’s rock-solid net defense, conspiring for five of the team’s eight blocks.
The Crossovers’ win overshadowed the efforts of Savi Davison, who tried to lift PLDT to victory by pouncing on 22 points that went futile.
