PVL: Tots Carlos shines in career-best show, powers Creamline past Akari


Tots Carlos delivered her best performance as a pro.

Carlos dropped a career-high, powering Creamline to a tight four-set, 25-22, 21-25, 25-22, 25-18, win over Akari for share of the top spot in the 2024 Premier Volleyball League All-Filipino Conference, Thursday at the Philsports Arena.

Carlos finished with 31 points on 30 attacks and one ace with a 55-percent attack rate to help the Cool Smashers move to 2-0 and extend their winning streak to 17 games, which dates back to the Second All-Filipino Conference last year.PVL-2024-Creamline-vs.-Akari-Tots-Carlos-7608 PVL: Tots Carlos shines in career-best show, powers Creamline past Akari News PVL Volleyball  - philippine sports news

“Natutuwa ako kasi napakaganda ng laro and sakto lang talaga na yung situation ganun so masaya lang ako na pinagse-serbisyuhan si Coach Sherwin (Meneses),” said Carlos. “Pero ayun po, lagi naman kaming ready.”

“Lagi ko namang sinasabi na kung hindi dahil sa mga tiwala ng teammates, ng mga coaches, ng management, ‘di naman talaga kami mage-excel ng ganito. So nagpapasalamat po ako sa lahat ng suporta lalong lalo na yung mga fans sa lahat ng suportang binibigay nila samin,” she added.

The three-time PVL MVP came up big in the tight fourth set, scoring three points in a 6-1 run to stretch a 13-10 advantage to 19-11. Akari never came back from there, trading hits with Creamline before Carlos slammed the doors shut with two consecutive off-the-block attacks.

“Syempre overall, naging maganda naman. Nakuha namin yung panalo pero ang importante yung ready kami sa lahat ng situations para kung ano ‘man yung mangyari sa loob ng court, ready,” said Cool Smashers head coach Sherwin Meneses.
