Ivy Lacsina may have delivered a fine scoring performance in Nxled's rout of Galeries Tower, but her synergy with setters Kam Cal and Maji Mangulabnan remains a work in progress.
Ivy Lacsina simply refused to let the Nxled Chameleons suffer another defeat on Tuesday night.
Coming off three successive losses to start the 2024 PVL All-FIlipino Conference, the 6-foot winger pushed the Chameleons into the winner's circle with a straight-set romp of the Galeries Highrisers.
Lacsina was a force to be reckoned with, showcasing her scoring prowess to the tune of 17 points, laced with 11 digs.
After turning in her best performance in an Nxled jersey, Lacsina shared the struggles she and setters Kamille Cal and Maji Mangulabnan had to go through to establish connection.
"Sobra-sobrang dami naming pinagdaanan ni Cal, ni Maji para lang mag-connect talaga kami," the former F2 Logistics Cargo Mover bared.
"Actually nag-away na din po kami. Sobrang daming times na nag-away kami. Pero ayun nga, hindi kasi pwedeng sila lang mag-aadjust sa akin...dapat ako din mag-aadjust. Ako na mag-aadjust."
Lacsina recalibrated her approach with her setters, and things are starting to look up for them.
"Opo, mas better siya ngayon pero hindi pa po siya hundred percent. So siyempre hindi naman po kami pwede tumigil, na ito na lang po eh. Kasi madami pa po kaming makakalaban and malalakas din po," she said.
With a much-improved synergy, Lacsina and the Chameleons seek to build on their breakthrough win as they face off against their sister team Akari Chargers on March 16, Saturday.
