Creamline stretched its winning streak as quick and easy as it snapped that of Air Force even as Choco Mucho exacted sweet revenge over PacificTown-Army Sunday night in the Premier Volleyball League Open Conference at FilOil Flying V Centre.

The Cool Smashers secured the No. 1 spot in the semifinals after stopping the Jet Spikers, 25-15, 25-16, 25-18, to stay unbeaten in 11 games and claim a semifinal spot.

Creamline also brought Air Force back to the ground. The Jet Spikers dropped to 5-6 overall.

Backup open spiker Jema Galanza unloaded 22 points as she was given the starring role, allowing star player Alyssa Valdez to take a breather following an ankle injury.

Earlier, the Flying Titans got back at the Lady Troopers, 25-20, 17-25, 21-25, 25-11, 15-8, to stay in contention for the next round.

Despite improving to 5-6, the chances of Choco Mucho advancing to the Final Four are dependent on how the other teams perform.

Kat Tolentino topscored for Choco Mucho with 24 points.
