Army shoots for Shakey’s V-League crown

THE Army Lady Troopers will try to wrap up yet another championship today even as PLDT Home Ultera tries to regain its bearings after suffering its very first loss of the season, in Game 2 of the best-of-three finals series in the Shakey’s V-League Open Conference at the Arena in San Juan City.

PLDT head coach Roger Gorayeb vowed that his wards will fight back after their, 13-25, 25-23, 27-25, 25-22 defeat to the Lady Troopers in the opener of their title series last Thursday.

He rued his wards’ over-eagerness to finish off the Lady Troopers after posting an emphatic first-set romp then cited the fatigue factor that resulted to their first setback after sweeping the elims and the semis.

Game Two is set today at 12:45 p.m. with the Lady Troopers looking to bank on their experience against their young yet talented rivals.
