VNS looks to strengthen its semis chances when it takes on Philippine Army while PGJC-Navy and National University-Archipelago Builders collide in a duel of ousted teams in the Spikers’ Turf Open Conference at the Paco Arena today.
The Griffins (5-3) and the Iloilo Spikers (6-2) are the only remaining squads still in the semis hunt, with the former eyeing to bolster their bid against the also-rank Troopers (3-6) at 3 p.m.
VNS is coming off a clutch 25-17, 25-17, 29-27 victory over Sta. Rosa last Sunday with middle blocker Russel Frondo leading their charge with 13 points, including six huge blocks.
“Super happy. Syempre, sabi ko nga sa kanila one game at a time lang tayo and we still have two more remaining games. Nakuha namin ‘yung goal namin ngayon na manalo but we will need to continue to practice,” said Griffins’ assistant coach John De Guzman.
“We need to practice to get that goal, para makuha namin ‘yung remaining games so super happy ako sa performance and happy din ako kasi masaya silang nag-lalaro,” he added.
The Sealions (3-5) and the Volley Builders (1-7) tange at 5:30 p.m.
