Dasmariñas moved on the cusp of a sweep with another easy win over San Juan, 26-16, 25-5, 25-21, in the 2025 Maharlika Pilipinas Volleyball Association (MPVA) on Monday night at the Dasmariñas Arena in Cavite.
The home team needed only 72 minutes of play to dispatch the Lady Knights in one of the tournament’s fastest matches highlighted by a mammoth 20-point victory in the second set.
Dasmariñas, a new team backed by the decorated three-time University Athletic Association of the Philippines and four-time Shakey’s Super League (SSL) champion National University, stretched its unbeaten campaign to 12 wins with two games to spare.
Team captain Vange Alinsug returned with a bang, firing 18 points to spearhead the Monarchs after taking a day off in the team’s 25-19, 12-25, 25-18, 25-18 win over the Negros ICC Blue Hawks last Sunday.
Alinsug and company were coming off a four-peat conquest in the SSL Preseason Unity Cup with a 10-0 sweep last weekend, staying on course for another title this time around in the MPVA.
Backstopping her were Harlyn Serneche and Celine Marsh with 11 and 10 points, respectively.
