Creamline makes quick work of SGA to seize solo lead

Creamline cruised to the solo top spot after making easy work of struggling Strong Group Athletics, 25-13, 25-13, 25-19, in the 2024 PVL All-Filipino Conference on Tuesday at the PhilSports Arena.

Bernadeth Pons had a surprise start for the defending champions and finished with a team-high 12 points anchored on 10 attacks and two aces as they improved to 4-0, overtaking Choco Mucho and Cignal who are both 3-0.

The win allowed Creamline to extend its winning streak to 19th since their 15-game sweep of the previous conference.

Team captain Alyssa Valdez chipped in nine markers as usual starters Jema Galanza and Tots Carlos saw limited action and chimed in with four and five markers apiece.

SGA, which fell to a 0-4 hole, was led by Dolly Verzosa who produced eight points while also listing 11 digs and four excellent receptions.

Likewise, Nxled barged into the win column after breezing past Galeries Tower, 25-21, 25-18, 25-15, behind the efforts of Ivy Lacsina, Lycha Ebon, and Camille Victoria.

Lacsina churned out 17 points alongside 11 digs while Ebon and Victoria provided the help with 15 and 10 markers each.
