Now thriving with Akari, Alba has been a pillar of steadiness for the Chargers’ offense. She currently stands sixth among Best Setters for the conference.

The former DLSU standout is expected to orchestrate a balanced attack featuring import Annie Mitchem, Grethcel Soltones, Eli Soyud, Ced Domingo, and Fifi Sharma.

Akari heads into the matchup fresh from a dominant victory over the Nxled Chameleons, which solidified their bid for a fifth-place finish heading into the quarterfinals.

With their system clicking and their local core producing consistently, the Chargers look poised to peak at the right time.
