Powerhouse Air Force tries to catch up with league leader Pocari Sweat when it stakes its unbeaten run today in the Shakey’s V-League Season 13 Open Conference at The Arena in San Juan.
The Lady Jet Spikers aim for their third straight victory in as many games against winless University of the Philippines at 4 p.m. to gain a share of the lead in the conference.
Bali Pure, a team composed of former Ateneo players, seeks to bounce back from an opening loss when it takes on National University (1-1) at 6:30 p.m. even as Cignal guns for a 3-0 card in the mend’s division to strengthen its hold of the top spot when it tangles with Navy (0-1) at 1 p.m. in the Spikers’ Turf.
PAF remains a force to reckon with after only dropping one set in its triumphs over Bali Pure and Baguio.
But Lady Jet Spikers Coach Jasper Jimenez said they still need to adjust their offensive game if to keep their momentum in this short, single-round robin elimination.
“Palakasin pa ang opensa,” said Jimenez after their recent 25-15, 25-19, 25-18 win over Baguio.
Joy Cases and Judy Ann Caballejo are slated to carry the offensive fight for the Lady Jet Spikers, with veteran setter and skipper Wendy Ann Semana expected to provide smart plays. (Kristel Satumbaga)
