The Petro Gazz Angels bested the Sta. Lucia Lady Realtors, 25-13, 25-21, 25-22, to complete the Final Four cast in the Premier Volleyball League Open Conference at the PCV Socio-Civic Cultural Center in Bacarra.

The Angels finished strong to frustrate the Lady Realtors, including in the third when they battled back from 15-17 by winning 10 of the last 15 points, the last two courtesy of Sta. Lucia’s miscues for the semis-clinching sixth win against two setbacks.

Sta, Lucia, which had hoped to finish its campaign on a five-game winning run for a shot at playoff for the last semis berth, ended up in fifth place with a 5-4 mark.

Petro Gazz’s victory, its fifth straight, likewise formalized idle Choco Mucho (6-1) and Chery Tiggo’s (6-2) march to the Final Four, reducing the last two elims playdates to virtual tune-up matches for the semifinalists and final standings.

Those include the Creamline-Perlas clash at 1 p.m. and Choco Mucho-Petro Gazz tussle at 4 p.m. today and tomorrow’s game pitting the Flying Titans against the Crossovers, also at 4 p.m.

Creamline took the first semis berth with a come-from-behind five-set win over previously unbeaten Choco Mucho late Wednesday for a 7-1 slate. (JNP)
