MANILA, Philippines—After a failed “five-peat” bid in the PVL All-Filipino Conference, Creamline looks to get back to its winning ways in the AVC Champions League.
The Cool Smashers have added more firepower too with a couple of reinforcements joining American import Erica Staunton in their AVC campaign.
On Tuesday, Creamline announced on X that Anastassiya Kolomoyets of Kazakhstan and Anastasiya Kudryashova of Russia will bolster Creamline in its stint in the annual continental club tournament.

“Mga ka-vibes, we’ve really got more good vibes to serve dahil nadagdagan pa ang ating mga smashing idols in the court! Not just 1, but 2 pa,” wrote Creamline.
“Ibang klase talaga! Excited na kaming makita kayo sa upcoming AVC Cup, Anastassiya and Anastasya.”
The 34-year-old Kolomoyets has made a name for herself in her own country with one gold, three silver and two bronze to her name in the Kazakhstan Cup.

Kudryashova, 25, is no slack either, as she, much like Kolomoyets, won a Kazakhstan Cup championship in her young career.
Staunton, who needs no introduction to Filipino volleyball fans, returns for another tour of duty for Creamline, which she helped complete a PVL grand slam last year.
The AVC Champions League begins Sunday at Philsports Arena in Pasig City with Creamline opening its campaign against Jordan’s Al Naser Club at 4:00 p.m.
