PVL: Cool Smashers eye fourth straight win, share of lead

Games Tuesday

(FilOil Arena)

4 p.m. – Choco Mucho vs Nxled

6:30 p.m. – Creamline vs Galeries Tower

MANILA, Philippines — Creamline hopes to continue reestablishing itself as a legitimate title contender of old as it eyes a fourth straight win and a share of the lead against a dangerous Galeries Tower side Tuesday, March 3, in the PVL All-Filipino Conference at the FilOil Arena in San Juan.

The Cool Smashers have quickly recovered from a nightmarish start that saw them getting felled by the PLDT High Speed Hitters almost a month ago and reemerging from it with three straight wins, including a 25-18, 26-24, 25-20 triumph over the Capital1 Solar Spikers last February 21.

At 3-1, the Rebisco-owned franchise is one victory short of catching up with PLDT (4-1) at the helm.

And expect the 10-time league champ to shoot for nothing less than a win in its 6:30 p.m. showdown with Galeries Tower (2-3).

“We talked about the need to get this win because it will put us in a better situation,” said Creamline coach Sherwin Meneses.

But Meneses knows they will be facing a Galeries Tower squad that has improved by leaps and bounds this conference.

“Knowing Galeries, we can’t afford to rest and just set them aside easily because we’ve seen how good their performance were recently,” he said.

Also eyeing to climb up the standings are Nxled (3-2) and Choco Mucho (2-3), which collide at 4 p.m.
