The Choco Mucho Flying Titans remain unblemished in the 2024 PVL All-Filipino Conference after dispatching erstwhile-unbeaten Cignal HD Spikers with a straight-set 25-18, 25-20, 25-21 shocker at the PhilSports Arena on Thursday night.

 

Sisi Rondina showcased her prolific form to the tune of 23 points and eight receptions for the Flying Titans, who soar to 4-0 for a share of the lead with Creamline.

 


Kat Tolentino also made her presence felt with a double-double of 14 markers and 10 digs, while Isa Molde contributed seven points and eight receptions.

The trio showed the way for Choco Mucho, which withstood a tough challenge from Cignal in the decisive third frame.

The HD Spikers played with a sense of urgency, trailing close behind the Flying Titans as momentum swung wildly.

Rondina and Molde further pushed the scales to Choco Mucho's favor with a 23-21 lead before Tolentino nailed the finishing touches to seal the deal.

Mars Alba also proved instrumental with 19 excellent sets, churning out the Choco Mucho offense that outgunned Cignal in spikes, 46-38.

On the other hand, the HD Spikers tasted their first defeat after winning three straight in the season-opening conference.

 

No one scored in double figures for Cignal as usual lead scorer Vanie Gandlers was limited to just four points.

Ces Molina paced the losing side with nine points and 10 receptions, while Riri Meneses managed eight markers.


Choco Mucho seeks to extend its streak to five when it collides with PLDT, while Cignal aims to get back on track when it faces Strong Group Athletics.


Both matches will be held on March 19, Tuesday at the FilOil EcoOil Arena.
