CHOCO Mucho also entered the PVL free agency market and acquired undrafted Adamson winger Ayesha Juegos.
A week before their PVL on Tour debut, the Flying Titans added size and power to their depleted squad by tapping the Lady Falcons’ former utility hitter. She became the second free agent to be picked up after Cignal signed National U libero Pearl Denura.

Juegos, 22, stands at 5-foot-7 and made her UAAP debut in a historic Season 85 run for the San Marcelino side where they won a breakthrough bronze medal under now-ZUS Coffee head coach Jerry Yee.
In the 2025 PVL Rookie Draft, Juegos was the lone Lady Falcon to not be selected by a PVL team on draft night.
Fellow winger-slash-middle blocker Mayang Nuique was drafted first in the second round by Nxled.
Middle blocker Jen Villegas, who was Choco Mucho’s 19th overall pick, will be reunited with Juegos for the purple shirts.
Filling in the gaps
As far as the Flying Titans are concerned, their star winger in Sisi Rondina won’t be around for an indefinite period as she fulfills her Alas Pilipinas beach volleyball duties.
Both of the team’s top opposite hitters in Dindin Santiago-Manabat and Kat Tolentino are also coming off health concerns.
The ex-Adamson duo will join the likes of mainstay scorers in captain Des Cheng, Royse Tubino and Isa Molde as part of Choco Mucho’s PVL on Tour campaign which begins against Galeries Tower on June 28 in Batangas City.
