    THE Philippine women's volleyball team crushed Cambodia, 25-5, 25-5, 25-5, in front of a jampacked home crowd at the Olympic Stadium in Phnom Penh to jumpstart its campaign in the 32nd Southeast Asian Games on Tuesday.

    Cambodia, who fielded its first-ever women's volleyball team in the biennal meet, scored 11 of its total 15-point output off Pinay errors. The hosts' four markers came from two aces, a block and a joust won by Phay Makara, Vi Sineut, and Kim Makara.
