Smart is out to prove that its first win is no fluke when it battles reigning champion Petron in another explosive triple-header in the Philippine Superliga All-Filipino Conference today at the Filoil Flying V Centre.
Action erupts at 7 p.m. with the Giga Hitters looking to sustain their sizzling start in this prestigious women’s club tourney bankrolled by Isuzu, Sogo, Senoh, Asics, Mikasa, Mueller, UCPB Gen and Bizooku with Genius Sports as technical partner.
Also looking to book their third win in this battle that also has ESPN5, Hyper HD and Aksyon TV as broadcast partners are F2 Logistics and Foton.
The Cargo Movers tackle Cocolife at 2 p.m. while the Tornadoes clash with Sta. Lucia in the 4:15 p.m. second game.
Still, all eyes will be on Smart and Petron.
Bannered by Gretchel Soltones, Aiko Urdas, Jasmine Nabor and the core of the squad that ruled the Open Conference of the rival league last year, the Giga Hitters are tipped to take the league by storm due to its chemistry, cohesion, airtight defense and attacking prowess.
In their first game, the Giga Hitters delivered a glimpse of their strength as they dominated the Lady Realtors, 25-20, 25-19, 25-23, with Soltones leading the way.
Soltones, a member of the team that campaigned in the AVC Asian Women’s Cup last month in Thailand, delivered 17 points and provided the spark that allowed Smart to shatter the 19-all deadlock en route to the impressive victory.
