KingWhale Taipei benches its stars and lets the second six wreak havoc on Cignal in a no-bearing PVL Invitational Conference semifinal match.

The Cool Smashers, however, will need more than experience, power and crowd support to foil a rival reinforced by a killer of a hitter in de Carvalho and a mix of young and veteran locals eager and ready to score a repeat over the most feared team in the fold and complete a five-game sweep of the mid-season conference of the league organized by Sports Vision. De Carvalho braces for a power duel with Carlos with the former hard-pressed to match or surpass her 24-point explosion Friday after pumping in 14 and 19 points against Army and PLDT, respectively. Meantime, Creamline is also coming into the championship game reeling from a five-set defeat to the visiting squad just last Friday although the Cool Smashers can lean on the fact that they showed up without one of their top hitters coupled with the sidelining of their seasoned skipper late in the contest. De Carvalho and Chang Chih-Hsuan scored nine points apiece while the steady Chen Chieh and Wang Yu-Wen added eight points each for the Taiwanese, who also pounced on the HD Spikers’ couple of mishits late in the fourth to pound out the victory. KWT dominated the opener then fought back from a blowout loss in the second set and a big deficit in the third to seize a 2-1 set lead before wearing down the HD Spikers in the fourth without top hitter Bea de Carvalho and ace playmaker Liao Yi-Jen, who saw action only in the early going before head coach Teng Yen-Min rested them in anticipation of a grind-out battle with the Cool Smashers. But the Cool Smashers will have a different look in their drive to nail a fifth crown overall and second in the league’s pro era as they face a fired-up KingWhale-Taiwan side in a winner-take-all match set at 5:30 p.m. today (Sunday) at the SM Mall of Asia Arena.
