In a sport filled with fierce rivalries and passionate fanbases, Michelle Morente reminded everyone that sometimes, love is the most powerful victory of all.

Fresh off a triumphant run with the Petro Gazz Angels in the 2024–25 PVL All-Filipino Conference Finals, Michelle shared a heartfelt post dedicated to her partner, Pangs Panaga — a standout middle blocker for the runner-up Creamline Cool Smashers.

While Morente’s Angels captured the gold and Creamline settled for silver, the photo and caption she posted revealed a deeper story — one that transcends championships and scoreboards.

“Achieving milestone after milestone together. 🫶🏼 tables have turned 😏🤪 but you know you are still my champ. lagi ko naman sinasabi, at di ako magsasawang sabihin na lagi akong proud sayo and andito lang ako to support sa lahat ng gagawin mo sa life. thankful for your never-ending patience and support. I appreciate you,” she wrote on Instagram.

It was a full-circle moment for the couple. For years, Creamline — with Pangs as one of its anchors — had been a dominant force in the league.

But now, Michelle and Petro Gazz finally claimed the crown. 

And while the “tables have turned,” Morente’s message radiated nothing but admiration, pride, and unwavering love.

“I love you🫶🏼 pero ako muna ang champ mo. 🥹,” she added.

In a separate interview with One Sports, Panaga opened up about the depth of their relationship and how Morente, or “Momo”, has been her rock through life’s toughest moments.

“She motivates me and kapag sobrang nasa pinaka-down moment ako, nandiyan siya to support me, and remind me na everyday na may challenges sa buhay natin, kailangan naming malagpasan and stay positive sa mga ginagawa natin,” Panaga shared.

For her part, Momo expressed the same gratitude and love in return.

“Thankful kasi very ano ‘yong relationship namin, support talaga sa isa’t isa,” she added.

“I’m always gonna be there no matter what. We’ve been through a lot na. I’m very thankful din sa kaniya kasi green flag siya, eh. ‘Don ko na-feel ‘yong genuine love ng isang tao. Sobrang swerte kong tao,” Morente said.

In the end, it wasn’t just Petro Gazz that took home the crown — it was love, mutual respect, and emotional maturity that truly won the day. 

For Michelle and Pangs, the season ends with a reminder that no matter the jersey, they’ve already found their greatest teammate in each other.
