Cignal eyes return to win column against struggling Capital1 in PVL All-Filipino showdown
Gel Cayuna will look to set up the Cignal HD Spikers' bounce back win as they face the Capital1 Solar Spikers in the 2024-25 PVL All-Filipino Conference.

The Cignal HD Spikers are determined to get back on the winning track as they take on the struggling Capital1 Solar Spikers in the 2024-25 PVL All-Filipino Conference on Thursday, February 6, at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig City.

Currently holding a 5-3 record, Cignal sits in fourth place after a tough stretch of games against the league’s top contenders—Petro Gazz, Creamline, and PLDT.

Their recent five-set thriller against the Cool Smashers showcased their resilience, nearly pulling off an upset before the defending champions rallied to take the final set.

Amid the tough stretch, the HD Spikers remain a strong playoff contender, boasting a talented roster despite being undermanned.

Vanie Gandler remains a key force, ranking 5th in scoring, 3rd in receiving, and 9th in serving.

Setter Gel Cayuna leads the league in playmaking, while Judith Abil (2nd in serving) and Dawn Macandili-Catindig (1st in digging) anchor Cignal’s defensive stability.
