The Nxled Chameleons enter the 2024-25 PVL All-Filipino Conference qualifying round with hopes of pulling off a season-defining upset against top-seeded Creamline Cool Smashers at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig on Thursday, February 27.

After a challenging preliminary round that saw them finish at 1-10, the Chameleons are eager to turn the page and prove they belong in the playoff mix.

May Luna-Lumahan will be a key factor in stabilizing Nxled’s game, alongside offensive weapons Chiara Permentilla, Lycha Ebon, and EJ Laure.

A victory would mark a massive turnaround for the Chameleons, while a loss would send the team to the play-in tournament for one last shot at a postseason appearance.
