01:05 - Nice serve, over received.
01:10 Chance ball and it's RJ to Roman, rejected.
01:15 - Zakarandang was able to redeem herself after that.
01:18 Usually there's a lot of pros and cons Megs
01:21 when utilizing that double sub.

01:36 Duramal sending it through, a good chance for Cherry Tigo.
01:39 They push to the left.
01:40 Eyal Laure was denied.
01:42 - Yep.
01:43 Eyal Laure going for that cross court attack
01:45 but Barbie Marzan, so much impact on that attack.
01:50 - A chance to tie now for Cherry Tigo.
01:53 That's Julia Ipac.
01:55 That went to the corner.
01:56 - Yep, and the set was a bit too low for Julia Ipac.
01:59 As well you have Rap-Rap Aguilar.
02:02 A lot of players still who have not played yet.
02:04 - It's 23 all, not much power there from Paran.
02:09 An overpass, chance ball, slide.
02:12 Julia Ipac couldn't score.
02:13 That goes through, scramble forced.
02:16 Eroa sends it to the other side.
02:18 It's still good.
02:20 Cherry Tigo with Eyal Laure.
02:22 The rally continues.

03:21 And that's it for set number one.
03:23 - The Cherry Tigo crossovers staying composed
03:30 this entire first set.
03:32 But Eyal Laure finishing it off,
03:34 going down the line, just tooling that block.

03:48 - Chance from Kilio.
03:50 Ball up, a good chance for Cherry Tigo.
03:52 And Abby Marano scores and walks it off.
03:55 - Yeah, we love to see that strut.
03:57 - One of the most impressive things about Abby Marano
03:58 is the fact that even though she's up there,
04:01 she's in her 30s now, early 30s,
04:04 as a middle blocker,
04:06 that's a big testament to her longevity already.
04:09 - Yes.
04:10 - She scores again.
04:11 Usually the middle blockers have the shortest time span
04:14 in playing volleyball.
04:15 - Yes, because they're constantly jumping,
04:16 they're constantly blocking.
04:18 - Ooh, good drop.
04:20 That's RJ Doromal.
04:21 Six all.
04:24 Service in, Robles, Bikar, back to Sess.
04:28 Great read.
04:29 - Another smart play coming from Sess Robles.
04:32 Another offense.
04:33 - So, anything else is a three set loss
04:36 or a three set win for the high risers.
04:38 - Well, this is the growing pains
04:40 that comes with being a new team.
04:41 A lot of learnings and a lot of experiences needed.
04:46 - Two players with Abby Marano, Aragalang.
04:49 - Tough coverage, but still present for Galeries Tower.
04:54 A chance for Cheritigo.
04:56 Abby Marano, almost scored.

05:25 That's Audrey Paran, another off speed hit.
05:27 Eight serving, 11.
05:29 Ball up by Aya, over, pass.
05:33 And that's an easy ball for Julia Ipa.
05:36 And Oa still is number one in digging in our tournament,
05:39 so we should give her her recognition
05:41 as Aya Lauri scores in that battle at the net.
05:44 Point by Aya, it's Alina serving.
05:46 That's it, Audrey Paran, another block.
05:49 Back to back for Aya Lauri.

06:43 A block point for Barbie Marzan.
06:45 Service in.
06:48 Ronquillo receives.

07:02 Nabor, back set.
07:03 Paat pushes, a good chance.
07:05 Marzan will send it to Dimi.
07:08 Oh, that was short.
07:10 - That is a lucky point coming for the Cheritigo crossovers.
07:15 They do lack experience,
07:17 but they're learning as they're playing.
07:19 And take a look at that.
07:20 Julia Ipac-Ilic with a beautiful running attack.
07:24 This is what she is known for.
07:26 - Jacarandang.
07:28 Sharp serve.
07:29 That's great, Danette.
07:30 Mabilangan to the quick.
07:32 Fall up by Aya.
07:33 Quick on the other end, no conversion.
07:36 It's Ronquillo.
07:38 Down the ball goes.
07:40 - Mean.
07:41 - Barbie Marzan.
07:42 Sharp serve.
07:45 And that was in.
07:47 - That's inside.
07:48 - 10 serving nine.
07:50 Abby Marano sending it in.
07:52 Doromal over receive.
07:54 - Good coverage.
07:55 - That's by Ipac.
07:57 Alvarez, zone one.
07:59 That met the line.
08:00 It would just really speed up your development as a player.
08:05 - It makes these girls are old enough
08:07 to handle coaches being blunt to them.
08:11 - Ooh, that drop for RJ Doromal.
08:15 - Back row and EJ, Miley Paat, Genierva.
08:19 - Tough hit from Jacarandang.

08:39 Put up by EJ.

08:42 And a one with the dig.
08:44 Donquillo would push with a smile.
08:46 Another chance.
08:48 Aya Laure off speed.
08:50 The activity is still there.
08:52 Ball to the sky.
08:55 Chance ball.
08:56 A lot of time for Jasmine.
08:57 Back set.
08:58 Mama P.
08:59 There you go.
09:00 - Miley Paat finishing it off.
09:03 The aura of MNAS.
09:05 The aura of Demi Pacres.
09:07 So much light when they're at it on the court.
09:10 - Here's Demi.
09:13 Now she's right in front of us.
09:15 Cheri Tigo will send it to Jasmine Abor
09:18 who now plays the role of attacker.
09:20 She couldn't score.
09:21 Demi Pacres off speed.
09:23 Red well by Abby.
09:24 Bit of a scramble.

10:00 - Ooh, a misreceive.
10:03 - Galeries Tower with their second set win
10:06 against the Chary Tigo crossovers.
10:09 - This is nerves, I would say, coming from Chary Tigo.
10:12 - Hi, risers.
10:13 This is where Abby Marano's words in my conversation
10:16 with her earlier come in.
10:17 She says that booking that semis ticket will not be easy,
10:20 but she goes back reflecting on being the captain
10:23 of the team's ship as she tells me, "I am in control."
10:27 She also shares how she knows what she wants.
10:30 - Four serving two, Aragalang.

11:41 I mean, this is a classic attack coming from Galang.
