FARM Fresh held on to a four-set victory over a winless Galeries Tower side, 25-10, 25-18, 24-26, 25-16, in a battle of also-rans in the 2023 PVL All-Filipino Conference at the PhilSports Arena.
Kate Santiago fired 14 points on 12 attacks and two blocks as the Foxies grabbed just their second win in their penultimate game of the conference, improving to 2-8 (win-loss) overall.
The Highrisers are now dead last at 0-9.

“Nakaka-boost siya ng confidence at ng morale, especially kasi dati ‘di ba, parang hindi talaga kami nakakakuha ng set," said Santiago.
“Unti-unti, one step at a time sabi nga ni Coach (Jerry Yee), at least may progress kami kesa naman ‘yung dahan-dahan kami pero wala namang (progress)."
Tubu boost
Trisha Tubu, who had 15 points, added: “Laking bagay kasi nga last conference wala kaming panalo tapos ngayong second conference nakaka-win na po kami. Sobrang sarap sa feeling na nakikita namin yung team namin na papunta na sa puro panalo na."
Except for a late third-set hiccup, Santiago and Tubu received much-needed reinforcement from Alyssa Bertolano and Rizza Cruz (11 points apiece) as Yee fielded all 14 of his players in the win.
Off-the-bench contributions from Dimdim Pacres and Grazielle (10 points apiece) couldn’t end Galeries Tower's eight-game losing slump in its debut PVL conference.
