The Choco Mucho Flying Titans are determined to maintain their winning form as they take on the PLDT High Speed Hitters in Game 1 of the 2024-25 PVL All-Filipino Conference quarterfinals at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig on Saturday, March 15.

The Flying Titans ended the preliminaries on a strong note, using that momentum to fuel their clean sweep of the Chery Tiggo Crossovers to secure their place in the quarterfinals.

The Dante Alinsunurin-led squad will aim to ride that wave into their best-of-three series against a PLDT squad that also comes in red-hot after beating the ZUS Coffee Thunderbelles in the qualifyng round.

While the matchup between top scorers Sisi Rondina and Savannah Davison will take center stage, Mars Alba’s steady playmaking will be the key to unlocking the Flying Titans’ full offensive arsenal.

The promising setter will look to distribute the ball effectively to Rondina, Isa Molde, Dindin Santiago-Manabat, and Lorraine Pecana, ensuring a well-balanced attack that can break through the High Speed Hitters.
