THE F2 Cargo Movers banked on Mika Reyes’ leadership on the floor in the fourth set to put away the Foton Tornadoes, 18-25, 25-18, 25-18, 25-19, and clinch the 2016 Philippine Super Liga All Filipino Conference Wednesday night at The Arena in San Juan. 

A brilliant floor defense on Jaja Santiago, Patty Orendain and Cherry Rondina worked wonders for the Cargo Movers, who took Game 1 last Thursday with a  25-20, 25-14, 9-25, 20-25, 15-10 win, before Foton scored the equalizer with a four-set victory in Game 2, 18-25, 25-17, 25-22, 25-18, over the weekend.

Reyes only had nine points for the Cargo Movers, who drew 12 points from Ara Galang.

But she ripped through Foton’s floor defense for a decisive 12-7 edge in the fourth.

The Cargo Movers broke through a 19-all deadlock with a  5-0 blast, with Reyes touching it off with her kill off Orendain’s block in the third

Galang then hit three points off her spikes during their third-set offensive as they went near their third match point, 24-19.

The Tornadoes grabbed the upperhand in the initial set, 11-8, with Santiago effectively covering the middle.

In the second set, the Cargo Movers bounced back with their defense on Rondina and Orendain at the left flank through the presence of Galang and Kim Fajardo at the front.
