MANILA, Philippines —  There will be no rest for the weary as Creamline, fresh from its Premier Volleyball League Reinforced Conference conquest at the PhilSports Arena, plunges back into action in the PVL Invitational against Thailand’s EST Cola at the Sta. Rosa Sports Complex in Laguna today.

“Oo nga walang pahinga,” said Creamline coach Sherwin Meneses, whose Cool Smashers downed the Akari Chargers, 25-15, 25-23, 25-17, Wednesday night to claim a record ninth PVL crown.

“First time nangyari itong magkadikit. But we will do our best para ma-sustain yung same energy pinakita namin (Wednesday),” he added.

In a quick turnaround, the dynastic franchise shoots for a 10th crown in a mini tournament that was reduced to five teams from six after the Chargers withdrew in the last-minute due to injuries.

PLDT backed out too, citing the same reason, but was replaced by Farm Fresh.

The other participating teams are Cignal and defending champion Japan’s Kurashiki Ablaze.
