With momentum firmly on their side, they cruised in the third set, with a Glaudine Troncoso hit wrapping up the match in just 69 minutes.&quot;We&#x27;re blessed and siyempre proud sa isa&#x27;t isa and sa buong team, dahil &#x27;yung trust talaga namin sa isa&#x27;t isa, makikita niyo na,&quot; said Molina of their performance.No BaliPure player reached double-digits, with Marciano putting up five points. They scored more points off Cignal HD&#x27;s errors (18) than they did from their own offense.The Water Defenders have yet to win a match this conference, having gone 0-3 in Pool B.
