The PLDT High Speed Hitters aim to launch their bid for a third straight PVL crown as they open their 2025 Reinforced Conference campaign against the Capital1 Solar Spikers.
The PLDT High Speed Hitters open their 2025 PVL Reinforced Conference campaign against the Capital1 Solar Spikers on Monday, October 13, at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
The High Speed Hitters will be looking for their third straight PVL title after bagging the On Tour and Invitational tournaments.
Leading the charge for PLDT is Anastasiia Bavykina, the Russian powerhouse who most recently starred for Yenisey Krasnoyarsk in Russia’s Super League.
Known for her scoring ability and physical presence at the net, Bavykina will be pivotal in keeping PLDT’s championship momentum alive.
PLDT’s strength, however, goes beyond its import.
Locals Kim Dy, Majoy Baron, Mika Reyes, Dell Palomata, Jovie Prado, and breakout rookie Alleiah Malaluan, along with Fil-Canadian standout Savi Davison, provide depth, versatility, and firepower.
