Zoi Faki is set to play professional volleyball outside of Greece and USA for the first time, as she heads to the Choco Mucho Flying Titans.
The Choco Mucho Flying Titans are going all out in their title hunt after snapping up Greek outside hitter Zoi Faki as their import for the 2024 PVL Reinforced Conference, the team announced on social media on Wednesday.
In her youth years, Faki played for Greek clubs SFA Foivos Melission, AEK Athens, and GS Panionios.
The 25-year-old then played for Pittsburgh University and San Diego State University in her college days--competing in the US NCAA for five consecutive years and even reached the Elite Eight. She then headed back to Greece, where she suited up for AO Thiras and Apollon Kalamatas.
The 6-foot spiker is expected to lead Choco Mucho’s offense alongside new addition Dindin Santiago-Manabat amid the possible absence of Sisi Rondina and Cherry Nunag--who are both focused on national team duties with Alas Pilipinas.

Having finished second in the last two conferences, the Flying Titans hope that their latest moves will finally earn them their first-ever PVL crown.
