VIGAN, Ilocos Sur — Newcomers continued to deliver for Cignal as it completed a perfect North trip with a 25-21, 25-22, 25-16 sweep of Capital1 in the PVL on Tour on Monday at Chavit Coliseum here.

Following an impressive debut in their three-set triumph against Akari on Sunday, Erika Santos sustained her fine form with a game-high 11 points built on eight kills and three blocks for a 2-0 start in Pool B.

Captain and setter Gel Cayuna paced her team with 27 excellent sets on top of five points. Rose Doria-Aquino delivered 10 points, while Ishie Lalongisip and Jackie Acuña added eight each.

Heather Guino-o haunted her former team, contributing seven points including two blocks from the bench.

“I’m super happy and proud because the players are really delivering. Their hard work during training is showing in the games, and that’s something we always remind them about,” said Cignal coach Shaq Delos Santos in Filipino. “Hopefully, we can still improve because the last three games in the eliminations will be even tougher. So we really have to prepare more.”

Cignal erased a 13-17 deficit in the second set as substitutes Guino-o and Erin Pangilinan drilled the timely hits to take a 22-19 lead before Capital1 cut it to one.

Guino-o sent the HD Spikers at set point, followed by a double block with Doria-Aquino against Rovie Instrella to take a two-set advantage.

They carried the momentum in the third with a blazing 7-1 start, as second-round Jessa Ordiales joined the scoring party with back-to-back hits for an 18-11 spread and also nailed the match-winner en route to a perfect Vigan tour.

“This tour means a lot for us, especially since we have so many new players. It helps us see how they move and perform in actual games. We’re really happy because everyone we subbed in was able to score. Hopefully, even more players will continue to step up,” said Delos Santos.

The HD Spikers battle the Creamline Cool Smashers on July 1 at FilOil EcoOil Centre in San Juan City.

Less than 24 hours after getting dominated by Creamline in straight sets, Capital1 had a good start as Trisha Genesis scored from the back row to take a 17-14 lead.

However, Doria-Aquino and Guino-o joined hands to make a run capped by Cayuna’s ace to take a 21-19 lead. The spiker-middle tandem scored two consecutive kills for a 23-20 breather before Santos won the opening set with back-to-back clutch attacks.

Instrella led Capital1 with 11 points, missing coach Jorge De Brito, who flew to Manila after his debut due to his Alas Pilipinas duty, with deputy Jerome Guhit calling the shots.

Genesis had nine points, while rookie Pia Abbu had eight, including two blocks, for the Solar Spikers, who fell to a 0-2 card.

Capital1 takes a long break before facing Chery Tiggo on July 5 at Ynares Center Montalban.
