The Creamline Cool Smashers are a set away from winning another championship after recording a 25-16 win in the third against the Cignal Super Spikers in Game 2 of their best-of-three Finals series in the 2026 Premier Volleyball League All-Filipino Conference Thursday Night at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Bernadette Pons stayed hot as Creamline reclaimed the momentum, racking up 18 points, 16 of which came through attacks.

Tots Carlos chipped in with her own quiet 10 points, followed closely by Jema Galanza who had 9.

Vanie Gandler, on the other hand, continued powering the Super Spikers with a game-high 20 points.

The Super Spikers must win the fourth set for them to stay alive in the match and the championship series.
