THE new year brings the same dedication as Rebisco shows once again its all-out commitment to volleyball with a renewed focus and goal of getting its professional teams in the Premier Volleyball League (PVL) to a better finish.
Entering its third season in the PVL, Head Coach Oliver Almadro’s team aims to build on its first two stints as they aim for a podium finish this time around and raise the level of competition in the Philippines’s first professional volleyball league higher.
After adding experienced and skilled veterans in setter Jem Ferrer and middle Cherry Nunag in November, Choco Mucho signed four key players that will strengthen the team’s championship drive—Desiree Cheng, Isa Molde, Aduke Ogunsanya and Thang Ponce.
Cheng and Molde will provide the much-needed scoring in the wings while Ogunsanya and Nunag will join the defensive middle blocking spots composed of Bea De Leon and Shannen Palec. Ponce will support Denden Lazaro on floor defense.
“Choco Mucho is a team we consider to still be a work in progress. We are confident our new talented players will address the needs of the Titans and further strengthen what has already been built by the team,” Choco Mucho Flying Titans team manager Rollie Delfino said.
With all PVL teams preparing heavily for another action-packed tournament, the Choco Mucho Flying Titans v 3.0 are ready to bring their A-game on the court this season.
“The competitive spirit, the passion, the pride, and the willingness to do more together with faith is what I see this team being all about,” Almadro said.
