The Nxled Chameleons aim to keep their quarterfinal hopes alive as they face Chery Tiggo Crossovers in Pool B of the 2024-25 PVL All-Filipino Conference play-in tournament.
The Nxled Chameleons open their 2024-25 PVL All-Filipino Conference play-in tournament campaign against the Chery Tiggo Crossovers at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig on Thursday, March 6.
Eager to bounce back from a straight-sets loss to defending champions Creamline Cool Smashers in the qualifying round, the Chameleons are determined to make the most of their play-in opportunity.
Chiara Permentilla will be a key piece for Nxled, alongside EJ Laure and Lycha Ebon, as they aim to shake off their recent struggles and keep their quarterfinal hopes alive.
Permentilla, who has been one of Nxled’s most reliable scorers all conference long, was the lone double-digit scorer for the Chameleons in the qualifying round with 12 points.
Against a battle-tested Chery Tiggo squad, head coach Ettore Guidetti will be hoping for much better performances from his other spikers.
With only one team advancing from Pool B, the stakes are high. A win against Chery Tiggo would be a crucial step toward securing the final quarterfinal spot.
However, the ultimate challenge awaits, with the winner set to take on powerhouse Creamline in the next round.
