PLDT vs. Cignal // 2025 PVL Reinforced Conference Quarterfinals

The last quarterfinal match features a highly-anticipated sibling rivalry showdown between the PLDT High Speed Hitters (3rd seed) and the Cignal HD Spikers (6th seed). This knockout match is critical for both teams, as Cignal, who finished the preliminaries strong with a five-set win over Creamline, is looking to repeat their previous victory over the High Speed Hitters.

The High Speed Hitters entered the playoffs as the third seed, banking on their strong balance of international power and deep local talent.

PLDT will be led by Russian import Anastasia Bavykina, whose powerful and versatile offense drives the team. She is backed by local standout Savi Davison, who provides consistent offense and floor defense. Their formidable net presence comes from the experienced middle-blocker trio of Majoy Baron, Mika Reyes, and Kim Kianna Dy, all orchestrated by setter Rubie De Leon.

The HD Spikers are one of the most formidable teams when clicking, having proven they can defeat top-tier teams, including a straight-set win over PLDT earlier in the conference and their recent five-set thriller against Creamline.

Cignal will be led by Slovakian import Katrin Trebichavska, the spearhead of their offense. She receives crucial support from local standout Vanie Gandler on offense and middle blockers like Rose Doria-Aquino and Jackie Acuña, who provide effective net defense. Setter Gel Cayuna is tasked with running the system and maximizing Trebichavska’s attacks.

This match is a strategic battle centered on which team’s import can outperform the other, and which local cast provides better support.

The High Speed Hitters must maximize Bavykina’s powerful attacks while utilizing their deep bench of local scorers (Davison, Dy) to keep Cignal’s defense off-balance. Maintaining composure and executing quick plays will be vital.

The HD Spikers’ path to victory lies in aggressive serving to disrupt PLDT’s reception and superior net defense to contain Bavykina. They need Trebichavska and Gandler to deliver consistently high offensive output to exploit any defensive lapses from the High Speed Hitters.

This sibling rivalry match is expected to be a dramatic showdown, with the winner moving one step closer to the finals.
