The Chery Tiggo Crossovers aim for a strong start in the PVL on Tour as they face the Capital1 Solar Spikers at the Ynares Center in Montalban.
Chery Tiggo Crossovers are set to kick off their PVL on Tour campaign with a clash against the Capital1 Solar Spikers Saturday, July 6, at the Ynares Center in Montalban, Rizal.
The Crossovers will be without starting libero and national team mainstay Jen Nierva, but seasoned defenders Anngela Nunag and Karen Verdeflor are ready to anchor the floor defense in her absence.
Leading the charge for Chery Tiggo is a veteran-laden lineup featuring Ara Galang, Ces Robles, Shaya Adorador, Pauline Gaston, and Mary Rhose Dapol.
The middle blocking duties will be handled by Aby Maraño, Cza Carandang, and Seth Rodriguez, while the setting responsibilities will be shared among Jasmine Nabor, Joyme Cagande, and Alina Bicar.
Chery Tiggo will also showcase its promising rookies, Reyann Canete and Erika Jin Deloria, who are looking to make an early impact in their pro volleyball debuts.
This fixture marks the third stop of the PVL on Tour series, which brings live professional volleyball action to fans outside Metro Manila. Previous legs in Vigan City and Batangas City drew packed crowds, with Montalban now set to experience the same volleyball fever.
