C Smashers, High Flyers start V-League title series

MANILA, Philippines — Creamline and PayMaya set out for Game One of the best-of-three series for the Premier Volleyball League Season 2 Reinforced Conference crown today, riding on a contrasting pair of sudden death victories in the Final Four but with the same drive – win at all costs.

For one, the Cool Smashers are seeking redemption after settling for a pair of third place finishes despite a strong roster in last year’s inaugurals of the league organized by Sports Vision although their campaign then was hampered by Alyssa Valdez’s commitment with the national team and her international stint.

This time, however, the former Ateneo hotshot has dedicated her time and effort to Creamline’s title bid, helping give the Cool Smashers a crack at a first-ever championship with consistent games from the elims to the semis.

Gametime is at 3:45 p.m. The game can be viewed live via streaming on sports.abs-cbn.com/livestream/pvl. It will be shown on a delayed basis starting at 7 tonight on ABS-CBN Sports + Action Channel 23.
