This is also their third consecutive straight-sets victory.Skipper Alyssa Valdez put up 16 points -- including 7 aces -- while Jema Galanza had 11 points and Michele Gumabao added 10 markers, 5 of which came off blocks.

So mas confident kami sa game namin, and tsaka &#x27;yung sabi ni Ate Ly, &#x27;yung connection at saka &#x27;yung chemistry namin, andoon na,&quot; said Galanza after the game.Valdez noted that they were well-prepared for Chef&#x27;s Classics, having watched their three-set loss to Motolite on Saturday.&quot;Mas nakapag-aral din kami, and mas napaghandaan din namin, napanood namin &#x27;yung game kahapon siguro kaya mentally, we&#x27;re also prepared,&quot; she explained.The Cool Smashers raced to a 16-1 lead in the first set, though a late run by the Red Spikers allowed them to break into double-digits before Galanza&#x27;s rejection of Cecilla Bangad ended the frame.They showed no mercy in the second frame, however. With Valdez at the service line, the Cool Smashers led 19-1 as the former Ateneo star scored three aces, while Gaanza and Celine Domingo scored at will at the frontline.&quot;I&#x27;m confident na kahit nasa likod ako, may tumutulong, sila Jema, na nasa front to always kill the ball,&quot; said Valdez. &quot;So kahit lakasan ko &#x27;yung bola or mag-error ako, laging may bawi.&quot;Chef&#x27;s Classics&#x27; 5-point outing in the second set was the lowest ever in club competition in the history of the PVL.The Red Spikers played better in the third set, even briefly leading 2-0, before a 6-0 blast by Creamline put them in control. Chef&#x27;s Classics also saved five match points when Tai Bundit yanked out his starters, but a tip by Rose Vargas completed Creamline&#x27;s win in just 66 minutes.The statistics showed how lopsided the game was, as Chef&#x27;s Classics only tallied 14 kills -- four less than Valdez and Galanza combined. They had only two blocks to Creamline&#x27;s 11, and only 3 aces to Creamline&#x27;s 10. Valdez, by herself, served 35 times while the Red Spikers served 33 times as a team.Nieza Viray led the Red Spikers with 7 points. Chef&#x27;s Classics dropped to 0-2 in the conference.<div>For more sports coverage, visit the <a href="https://sports.abs-cbn.com">ABS-CBN Sports website</a>.</div>
