CHOCO Mucho's thunderous start to the 2023 Premier Volleyball League Invitational Conference continued with yet another masterful sweep — this time, against a returning Foton side, 25-19, 25-19, 25-14, on Saturday at the FilOil EcoOil Arena.
Choco Mucho vs Foton 2023 PVL Invitational Conference
Just two games into a compressed midseason tilt, Sisi Rondina has already proven to be the squad's X-factor on offense with 19 points off 15 attacks, three blocks, and one aces.
And while still unscathed, the Flying Titans have also yet to concede 20 points or more in a single set thus far.
"Nag-eenjoy lang talaga ako, I swear. Lagi lang akong nag-cocommit sa kung anong trabaho 'yung binibigay ng coaches sa'kin and kung saan ako pwedeng makatulong sa team," Rondina said.
"Kanina sinasabi ko sa kanila na walang titigil hanggang hindi tumuntong ng 25 [points]. Walang titigil, tiyaga lang," she added.
Cherry Nunag and Des Cheng added more fuel to Rondina's offensive firepower with 12 and 10 points respectively to steer the Flying Titans to win number two.
Deanna Wong's sharp ball distribution was also key to Choco Mucho's victory as she registered 14 excellent sets.
However, in Foton's second straight loss, only Shaya Adorador had a double-digit scoring output with 10 markers.
Both squads return to action on July 11 after the Volleyball Nations League break, with Choco Mucho facing F2 Logistics and Foton battling Cignal.
