STA. LUCIA LADY REALTORS TO TREAT EVERY MATCH ‘JUST LIKE A CHAMPIONSHIP GAME’, SAYS MJ PHILLIPS

Sta. Lucia is still in the running for a final four slot as they get their first back-to-back wins in the Premier Volleyball League (PVL) Open Conference after losing three games in a row.

The Lady Realtors, unfortunately, handed over and lost three matches and it was only on Wednesday night the team pulled off a winning streak after a back-to-back victory against Black Mamba-Army on Monday, and Chery Tiggo Crossovers on Wednesday. 

The Fil-Am Lady Realtors opposite spiker said that the team has adjusted to keep on fighting and will treat every game as if they were in a championship game to suffice their desire to win.

“We’re getting our rhythm and we’re just hungry and we just wanna keep winning and just fight and leave it all out on the court just like a championship game every game,” said Phillips after the game against Chery Tiggo on Wednesday night.

Phillips who delivered 23 points, 16 attacks, five blocks, and two aces against their latest game with Crossovers said that there is no room for the team to give up and supported by the excellent performance of Sabete and Prado’s offense even in a long 5-set game.

“[We] just go for everything and not let anything drop. We just gotta keep pushing whether we’re tired or we’re out of rhythm. We just gotta keep going and dig deep,” Phillips added.

Chasing after the final four and recovering from a 3-straight loss of its first four outings, Phillips averred that the team will fight as if it is their last game and will not bow down easily. 

“There’s just a flip of switch in us that we were just like we gotta go. It’s now or never,” she said.

Meanwhile, there is no game scheduled yet for the Lady Realtors and will have to enjoy the rest of the week bagging two victories, and prepare for the next game schedule.
