Chai Troncoso aims to lead ZUS Coffee past former team Cignal in PVL All-Filipino Conference
Chai Troncoso will have something to prove as the ZUS Coffee Thunderbelles face her former team, the Cignal HD Spikers in the 2024-25 PVL All-Filipino Conference.

The ZUS Coffee Thunderbelles will try to get back into the win column as they tussle with the Cignal HD Spikers in the 2024-25 PVL All-Filipino Conference at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig on Thursday, February 13.

The Thunderbelles fell short in their previous match against the Petro Gazz Angels in four sets, dropping to a 4-5 record with just two games left in their schedule.

Sitting at the 8th spot, ZUS Coffee is out to gain momentum heading into the qualification round.

Their upcoming match against the HD Spikers will mark the first battle for Jovelyn Gonzaga and Chai Troncoso since leaving the team before the extended conference.

Gonzaga last played for Cignal during the 2023 Second All-Filipino Conference where they copped the bronze medal. Troconso, meanwhile, was with the team up until the 2024 Invitational Conference where they also fell short of the gold medal.
