Petron turned to Sisi Rondina in outlasting Foton, 28-26, 25-27, 25-21, 24-26, 15-12, on Saturday to salvage the bronze medal in the Philippine Superliga All-Filipino Conference at the Smart Araneta Coliseum

Rondina exploded for 33 points including five of the last six points in the deciding fifth set to help the Blaze Spikers end their campaign on a high note after getting dethroned by the Cignal HD Spikers in the semifinals.The reigning UAAP Most Valuable Player highlighted her performance with 30 kills.

Skipper Ces Molina also steered Petron with 15 points built on 11 spikes, two blocks and two aces while Remy Palma and Mika Reyes finished with 11 points apiece. Petron coach Shaq delos Santos was still grateful of his stalwarts’ performance despite finishing with their lowest output in the last three years.

“This bronze medal is still gold for us,” Delos Santos said. “It wasn’t the ending that we wanted, but we’re still thankful.”Petron was tipped as the team to beat at the start of the conference and lived up to that billing after clinching the top seeding in the quarterfinals and gaining a twice-to-beat semifinal incentive to Cignal.
