Stranded PLDT HS Hitters rescued by RAHA Volunteers in flood-hit Araneta Avenue in Quezon City

NOTHING, not even an unbeaten Premier Volleyball League (PVL) club PLDT, can withstand Mother Nature.

Stranded at the SGS Stadium in flood-hit Araneta Avenue in Quezon City, the High Speed (HS)  Hitters needed to be rescued by the RAHA Volunteers Fire Department Monday night for them to go home safe and sound.

“They’re all okay now and got home last night (Monday),” PLDT manager Bajjie del Rosario told The STAR on Tuesday.

Mr. Del Rosario said they’ve already canceled practice on Tuesday and will resume on Wednesday at a different venue — Gameville in Mandaluyong.

“We’ve decided to call off training today (Tuesday)so everyone can rest,” he said.

PLDT is currently atop Pool A alongside Nxled on pristine 3-0 cards in the ongoing PVL on Tour.

The High Speed Hitters clash with Chameleons on Saturday at the USJ-R Coliseum in Cebu City for the solo lead and outright quarterfinal qualification. — Joey Villar
