MANILA — Farm Fresh bucked a Set 3 loss en route to a 25-18, 25-13, 18-25, 26-24 triumph over Choco Mucho in Pool A of the 2025 Premier Volleyball League (PVL) Reinforced Conference on Friday at the FilOil EcoOil Centre in San Juan.
The Foxies, sitting on a 2-1 set lead, refused to back down late in Set 4, uncorking a 5-1 finishing blitz to silence the Flying Titans and their fans.
After three unanswered points by the Flying Titans, capped by a Kat Tolentino sharp attack to build a 23-21 lead, Eli Rousseaux got things going, sparking that run with a crosscourt hit.
Rousseaux complemented that with a kill block on Tolentino to knot things up, 23-all, and Rizza Cruz put Farm Fresh on match point after a gutsy service ace.

Cruz could not repeat the ace she dealt, suffering a service error, but Tolentino also committed that same error on the other side to gift Farm Fresh a score and match point once more, 25-24.
Rousseaux fired her 27th point to wrap things up, finishing the game that lasted almost two hours.
