Valdez saludo sa Choco Mucho

MANILA, Philippines — Saludo si three-time PVL MVP Alyssa Valdez sa Choco Mucho na nagpamalas ng kakaibang bagsik sa semis ng Premier Volleyball League (PVL) All-Filipino Conference.

Lumasap ang tropa ni Valdez ng 25-13, 25-19, 21-25, 20-25, 16-18 kabiguan sa Flying Titans sa opening day ng round-robin  semis.

“More than the skills, I think after that finals appearance against us last conference, we’ve seen and we’ve felt also in today’s game their immense heart and composure,” ani Valdez.

Naniniwala si Valdez na malaki na ang pinagbago ng Flying Titans lalo pa’t nang mahawakan ito ni veteran mentor Dante Alinsunurin.

“I guess overall, they’ve been improving mentally, physically, and as a team. So it’s gonna be a tougher and stronger  Choco Mucho for sure,” ani Valdez.

Ito ang parehong sinabi ni outside hitter Jema Galanza.

Unang beses na natalo ang Creamline sa Choco Mucho sapul noong 2019.

Kaya naman saludo ito sa buong team na nagsikap para makuha ang panalo.

“Making the Finals last year is huge for them as it boosts their morale. Maddie Madayag said that they’re a different team now and they really are. As their sister team, I’m happy for them since we’re both elevating and playing better,” dagdag ni Galanza.

Nasayang ang pinaghirapang 23 puntos ni Galanza sa naturang laro.
