The Home Masters dismantled the COMELEC Suffragettes with a 3-0 sweep, maintaining control throughout the match with set scores of 25-18, 25-14, and 25-19. 

Not to be outdone, the AFP Lady Gunnar mirrored this efficiency by crushing the DENR Lawin Spikers in a one-sided affair, finishing 25-7, 25-21, and 25-15.

Lisa Amiano emerged as the driving force for NHA, earning Best Player of the Game honors after a stellar 14-point performance.

Meanwhile, Keeley Joy Betinio spearheaded the AFP offensive, taking home the Best Player award for her squad. 

Betinio’s precision was the story of the match, as she converted 8 points, all coming from powerful attacks, to ensure the Lady Gunnar’s victory remained undisputed.

These twin sweeps have caused a significant shake-up in the league leaderboard. 

With their latest triumph, the AFP Lady Gunnar successfully climbed to the third spot in the standings, positioning themselves as a formidable threat in their upcoming games.
