MANILA, Philippines — Chery Tiggo recovered from a third-set slip to beat PLDT, 25-12, 25-23, 20-25, 25-22, in the Premier Volleyball League (PVL) 2024-25 All-Filipino Conference at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on Tuesday. The Crossovers opened the match with a convincing 25-12 first-set win, before the High Speed Hitters came close in the second frame 25-23. PLDT found its groove in the third set as Del Palomato deflected the attacks from Chery Tiggo's go-to gunner Ces Robles, 20-25.
However, the Crossovers pulled through in the fourth frame, and did not allow the Hitters to push for a fifth setter after a 5-2 rally in the late stretch of the match, 25-22, capped by Shaya Adorador's game-winning kill. Jen Nierva threw her body all over the court and took care of Chery Tiggo's floor defense, tallying a double-double performance of 17 excellent digs, and 16 excellent receptions. "I started my day watching PLDT, and I have six pages on how to go against them.
I think that is something new that I did today, and I think it is effective since it is different if you really know your opponent," Nierva said. Chery Tiggo's offense was led by Ces Robles' 17-point outing, and Ara Galang's 13-point effort. Pauline Gaston made 10 points, and Adorador added 11 markers.
On the other hand, PLDT's Savi Davison poured 27 points, while Santos added 13. Palomata added nine points for PLDT on which five of her output came from blocks. Chery Tiggo and PLDT are now tied with 3-1 win-loss card.
