National University star Bella Belen finally made her much-anticipated appearance at the 2025 Premier Volleyball League (PVL) Rookie Draft Combine on Saturday, taking part in the second day of the two-day showcase at the Paco Arena in Manila.

After missing out Day 1’s athletic testing and workshops, the three-time UAAP MVP arrived in time for the scrimmage sessions, giving coaches and scouts a glimpse of her on-court abilities ahead of the June 8 Draft at Novotel Manila.

Belen is among nearly 60 aspirants vying for a spot in the PVL through the Combine, which featured a mix of physical drills, developmental workshops, and live-game simulations.

PVL Control Committee Chairman Sherwin Malonzo previously confirmed Belen’s expected attendance on Day 2 after her absence the day before.

With her participation now official, all eyes are on which team will secure the services of the versatile outside hitter, considered a franchise-changing prospect in a talent-rich class. The Capital1 Solar Spikers hold the no. 1 pick of the 2025 PVL Draft.
