Philippines ends VTV Cup campaign with loss to Chinese club
The Philippines dropped their final game to the Liaoning V.C. volleyball club, ending their campaign with a 1-4 record

MANILA, Philippines – The Philippines’ time at the 2015 VTV International Women’s Volleyball Cup ended on a lopsided and disappointing note when the team was defeated by the Liaoning V.C. volleyball club from China in 3 sets, 25-22, 25-17, 25-15, in Bac Lieu, Vietnam on Wednesday, July 29.

It was the fourth loss in 5 games for the Philippines, whose defeats all came via 0-3 sweeps. Overall, the Filipinas went 3-14 in sets, finishing with 2 total points. 

With their 1-4 record – their lone win coming against 0-5 Nanjing University – the team fails to qualify for the semifinal round that begins on Friday, July 31. 

The semis of the tournament is set as Liaoning V.C, defending champion Vietnam, the April 25 Sports Club from North Korea, and Thailand’s Under-23 team will compete for the tourney title.

The Philippine team that competed in the VTV Cup was without Alyssa Valdez, Rachel Anne Daquis, Jovelyn Gonzaga, Jaja Santiago, and other key players who were part of their Southeast Asian Games roster. – Rappler.com
