The Capital1 Solar Spikers hope to keep their conference buzzing as they take on the formidable Petro Gazz Angels in the 2024-25 PVL All-Filipino Conference qualifying round at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig on Saturday, March 1.

After a challenging preliminary round that saw them finish with a 1-10 record, the Solar Spikers are determined to turn things around.

Their last game nearly saw Capital1 come out with a win against the Farm Fresh Foxies before seeing their two-set lead slip away.

Des Clemente-De Guzman, Jorelle Singh, Leila Cruz, and Heather Guino’o will need to deliver inspired performances to challenge the second-seeded Angels.
