The Petro Gazz Angels will be out to break a slump against an equally desperate Choco Mucho Flying Titans.
Myla Pablo and the Petro Gazz Angels will look to steady the ship and salvage their PVL on Tour campaign when they face the equally struggling Choco Mucho Flying Titans in a crucial Pool A matchup on Monday, July 29, at 6:30 p.m. at the Candon City Arena in Ilocos Sur.
Now playing under new leadership following the sudden exit of head coach Koji Tsuzurabara, the Angels (1-3) are eager to close the preliminary round on a high note and clinch the final quarterfinal spot in their group.
Tsuzurabara had previously steered Petro Gazz to the All-Filipino Conference title earlier this year, making his departure a major jolt to a team already reeling from back-to-back straight-set losses in Ilagan City.
Pablo, who led Petro Gazz in scoring during their recent slump, will once again be relied on for offense—but support from her teammates will be crucial as the Angels aim to begin a new chapter with a bounce-back win.
Standing in their way are the Choco Mucho Flying Titans (1-3), who are also desperate to stop a three-game skid.
Rookie standout Ayesha Juegos hopes to build on her breakout performance, with veterans Des Cheng and Isa Molde expected to provide steadiness on the wings.
With both teams gunning for the final playoff ticket in Pool A, expect a high-stakes showdown between two squads eager for redemption and a fresh start.
