MANILA – Cignal HD Spikers continued their offseason build up by signing up three rookies and extending one of their standout players from the previous Premier Volleyball League (PVL) season.
Ilongga Pearl Ann Denura, a libero from National University Lady Bulldogs, was picked up by the HD Spikers after being left undrafted during the 2025 PVL Rookie Draft.
Erin Pangilinan and Negrense Jessa Ordiales, drafted 6th and 18th during the recent rookie draft, officially inked their contracts with the HD Spikers to start their pro careers.
Recently-crowned PVL Rookie of the Conference Ishie Lalongisip also secured a contract extension from the HD Spikers.
Selected as 7th overall in the 2024 PVL Draft, Lalongisip proved her worth in the last All-Filipino Conference, stepping up as a starter during Cignal’s rise to the third seed in the preliminaries.
The HD Spikers is set to compete in the upcoming PVL On Tour, where they are slotted in Group B with Creamline Cool Smashers, Akari Power Chargers, Chery Tiggo Crossovers, Capital1 Solar Spikers, and Galeries Tower Highrisers.
“Masaya and excited ako sa team namin ngayon kahit may Alas Pilipinas duties sina Vanie (Gandler) and Dawn (Catindig),” said HD Spikers head coach Shaq Delos Santos.
“Good time to try out itong mga bata and new draftees namin sa PVL On Tour, and we’re confident to say na we want them to be here long-term and hopefully maging part ng aming long-coveted championship. Sana makuha namin eventually,” he added./PN
