4 p.m. – PLDT vs F2 Logistics
6 p.m. – Cignal vs Petron
BIÑAN CITY – Reigning champion Petron looks to tighten its grip of the solo lead when it tangles with slumping Cignal in the Philippine Superliga Grand Prix Saturday at the Alonte Sports Arena here.
Action starts at 6 p.m. with the well-oiled Blaze Spikers hunting their ninth straight win in the women’s club league bankrolled by Asics, Mueller, Mikasa, Senoh, Team Rebel Sports, Bizooku, UCPB Gen, Cocolife, Hotel Sogo and Data Project.
On the same note, Petron’s rival F2 Logistics seeks to extend its winning ways when it tackles PLDT in the 4 p.m. appetizer of this explosive weekend double-header that also has ESPN5 and 5Plus as broadcast partners.
After absorbing their lone loss of the season – a four-set heartbreaker to the Blaze Spikers – the Cargo Movers have regained their deadly form as they posted convincing victories over PLDT and United VC.
Against United VC, Lindsay Stalzer was on fire while Becky Perry, Ara Galang and Majoy Baron provided ample support as they combined for 30 points that prompted the Cargo Movers to pull off a 25-22, 25-21, 25-22 triumph.
And to further boost its lineup, F2 Logistics will bring in University of Perpetual Help System Dalta star Cindy Imbo to replace the injured Kim Kianna Dy in the rotation.
“Cindy will start playing with us against PLDT on Saturday,” said F2 Logistics team manager Hollie Reyes, referring to the high-flying spiker, who was the hero in the Lady Altas’ furious run in the Final Four of the NCAA recently.
