MANILA, Philippines — Savi Davison refuses to decelerate, vowing to depart every little thing on the ground as PLDT chases a second straight championship within the PVL.
Eleven days faraway from their maiden championship within the PVL on Tour, Davison poured in 26 points to finish a five-game sweep of the Invitational preliminaries after trouncing the winless ZUS Coffee, 24-26, 25-17, 25-17, 25-14, on Thursday at Smart Araneta Coliseum.

“I feel it speaks greater than words going right into a tournament and having to play back-to-back [games] every other day, especially for the opposite teams which might be performing as well. But, we take it seriously. We go into every game with the fitting mindset,” said Davison, who drilled 24 kills and two blocks on top of 12 digs and 7 excellent receptions.
The High Speed Hitters barged into their second straight final with a 12-game winning streak dating back to their On Tour run.
Despite the gruelling schedule, the Filipino-Canadian hitter stays all out for an additional championship likelihood. They are going to face the winner of Chery Tiggo and Kobe Shinwa University of Japan, who will dispute the last final ticket on Friday at 4 p.m.

“I don’t wanna put a number to [my physical readiness], but mentally, I’m there. If I speak it out into the world, then it becomes true, so mind over matter,” she said.
“Obviously, come the day of, I’m gonna be physically prepared and mentally prepared. Especially with the assistance and support of our team. Every individual is sort of in charge and liable for their very own. So, one of the best I could do is just be ready myself.”
Expect the identical fiery Davison in one other winner-take-all as she hopes to win her second straight PVL title.
“I really like the pressure. I’m looking forward to only the day usually, having practice within the morning and going to the sport and ending with a bang, trying to indicate everybody that we will do it again,” said Davison. “We’re gonna rest, recoup, after which study, and sort of go into that Finals day with every little thing that we now have. Very excited to do it with this team, especially.”
