Chery Tiggo fights to keep its quarterfinal hopes alive as it takes on PLDT in a must-win 2025 PVL Reinforced Conference showdown.
The Chery Tiggo Crossovers brace for a must-win battle as they take on the PLDT High Speed Hitters in the 2025 PVL Reinforced Conference on Saturday, November 15, at the Ynares Center Montalban.
With their quarterfinal hopes in jeopardy, the Crossovers enter the match knowing that a loss could push them out of quarterfinal contention.
At 2-4, every game is now a do-or-die scenario for the 2021 PVL champions, who must climb into the top 8 to keep their campaign going.
Ara Galang continues to serve as one of Chery Tiggo’s veteran anchors, providing stability with her floor defense, smart hitting, and leadership.

Her presence is crucial as the Crossovers attempt to rally behind Cuban import Yunieska Batista’s explosive scoring, highlighted by a conference-high 41 points in their crucial five-set victory against the Capital1 Solar Spikers.
But to finally break through against PLDT, Galang and the rest of the local core, including Jen Nierva, Alina Bicar, Mylene Paat, Cza Carandang, and Pauline Gaston, must deliver a more balanced and consistent performance.
With their season on the line, Chery Tiggo aims to shock PLDT in their PVL on Tour Finals rematch, and stay alive in the quarterfinal race.
First serve is scheduled for 4:00 p.m.
