SABLAN, Benguet – Itogon vented its ire on a hapless Bakun for a 25-3, 25-14, 25-13 victory at the Sablan Municipal Gym here Sunday for its second win in three games of the Cong. Eric Go Yap Benguet Women’s Volleyball League.
The game that took only 48 minutes saw Itogon register the shortest set of just 10 minutes in the tournament backed by Cong. Yao, the ACT – CIS Partylist, the office of Gov. Melchor Diclas and the Media for Sports Development.
The three is the lowest scored allowed as Itogon had a field day with their services. Setter Julie Anne Ogoc scored five the team’s seven service aces, while eventual best player of the game Julie Odlos tallied the other two en route to three service aces and eight points to lead Itogon.
“That was really frustrating and the girls were pretty angry themselves to miss out of beating the time,” said coach Oliver Jimenez of the defaulted game last Sunday.
“It was miscommunication on where they will meet to be picked up and transported to the venue and they failed to consider the traffic in Trinidad,” added Jimenez after the unfortunate Sunday event when most of the players arrived a minute after the 15-minute defaulting time was over. Some of them were in tears after they were slapped with the penalty.
Ogoc and Sheena Gryl Tudlong added seven each, while Chalene Ivy Licuben and Odessa Obispo tallied six points each. Obispo had three service aces.
Earlier, Tuba won its second game with ABCAmp veteran Radinka Dumawor leading the squad to a three set victory in just 42 minutes.
Bokod and Buguias were playing as of this writing, while Atok and Mankayan tangle in the fourth of the five slated games here.
Attention, however, is on the final game with powerhouses La Trinidad and Sablan facing each other.
