F2 Logistics brought out the jammers and disrupted Cignal, 25-12, 23-25, 25-20, 25-11, to open its campaign in the Philippine Superliga All-Filipino Conference on a high note Saturday at San Juan Arena.
Substitute Christine Soyud only played in the fourth set but was vital in capturing the win for the Cargo movers scoring on a magnificent middle hit that went through two HD Spikers.

F2 Logistics pretty much owned the match but let the HD Spikers take an early 17-9 lead, in the second set. Though the Cargo Movers managed to inch closer, 21-20, but the momentum had already moved to Cignal.
De Jesus’ bench, though, took over in the fourth with Mary Joy Baron and Soyud playing closers for F2 Logistics.
