In perhaps the most unpredictable start to a season yet, the Premier Volleyball League All‑Filipino Conference has entered true free‑for‑all territory, with every team in the league having now experienced at least one loss.
One of the biggest storylines came from an anticipated matchup between two titans, the PLDT High Speed Hitters and Cignal Super Spikers. Cignal, rebounding from an earlier setback, delivered a convincing straight‑sets victory over PLDT.
Not only handing the High Speed Hitters their first loss of the conference but also reclaiming solo leadership in the standings. Erika Santos and Vanie Gandler spearheaded the offensive punch as the Super Spikers showed firepower against a previously unbeaten PLDT.
With the win, Cignal clutches the top spot on the leaderboard at 4-1, while PLDT now sits just behind at second alongside the Creamline Cool Smashers with 3-1 apiece.
