Army seeks Shakey’s V-L crown vs PLDT today

EXPERIENCE over firepower.

The Philippine Army will be banking on this edge again when it shoots for the crown against PLDT Home Ultera in the Shakey’s
V-League Season 12 Open Conference today.

“Our championship experience helped us win the opener,” Army coach Rico de Guzman said of his squad, a finalist for three straight conferences.

The Lady Troopers try to sweep the Ultra Fast Hitters in Game 2 of the best-of-three Finals at 12:45 p.m. at Filoil Flying V Arena in San Juan City.

In the first game, Cagayan Valley also vies to finish off Meralco in the battle for third place at 9 a.m.

Banking on Jovelyn Gonzaga and Dindin Santiago-Manabat, the Lady Troopers shocked the Ultra Fast Hitters in a Game 1 upset, 13-25, 25-23, 27-25, 25-22, last Thursday.
