I didn&#x27;t feel like I was somewhere else. I&#x27;m just attacking and cannot score, sometimes, but I was more comfortable on the court and more confident.&quot;</p><p>Tushova, who scored 32 points against ZUS Coffee to cap the first round on Tuesday, was unanimously voted by the beat reporters from print and online news outlets for the second week in a row, besting Akari pair Oly Okaro and Grethcel Soltones, Petro Gazz&#x27;s Wilma Salas, PLDT&#x27;s Lena Samoilenko, Creamline&#x27;s Bernadeth Pons, and Chery Tiggo&#x27;s Ara Galang.</p><p>The stars aligned for Capital1 as the 6-foot spiker was able to realize her dream to compete in the Philippines, spelling the difference for the Solar Spikers&#x27; rise from cellar-dwellers to contenders in the midseason tournament, which is streamed live and on-demand via the Pilipinas Live App and www.pvl.ph.</p><p>&quot;It was my goal to play here. I got an invitation a few years ago but we didn&#x27;t meet on the agreement between the team. I was really looking for a team here, so they [Capital1] found me,&quot; said Tushova. </p><p>&quot;It&#x27;s a great experience. I love to see people, I want to meet new people. This [kind of experience] you can&#x27;t learn [it] every day. It&#x27;s so good.&quot;</p><p>Playing through a minor hand injury she sustained in practice, Capital1&#x27;s go-to ace captivated volleyball fans with her professionalism, earning high praise from coach Roger Gorayeb. </p><p>&quot;I&#x27;m just happy. As I&#x27;ve said before, I would rather see Marina on our side than play against her,&quot; Gorayeb said. &quot;She&#x27;s always there to play no matter what. That&#x27;s how professional players should be. and she&#x27;s very professional. Alam niya the team needs her, that&#x27;s why whatever happens she plays.&quot;</p><p>Carrying a franchise-best three-game winning streak for a 4-2 record, Tushova and the Solar Spikers are a win away from their first-ever PVL playoffs, gunning to seal a quarterfinal berth against Farm Fresh on Thursday.</p><div><a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/2024/8/4/tushova-named-player-of-the-week-for-fueling-capital1s-rise-1509">READ: Tushova named Player of the Week for fueling Capital1&#x27;s rise</a></div><div><strong>RELATED VIDEO:</strong></div><div><span class="fr-video fr-deletable fr-fvc fr-dvb fr-draggable" contenteditable="false" draggable="true"><iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZJT4YElgKZs?&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;rel=0" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe></span><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><br/></div>
