The Farm Fresh Foxies recovered from a two-set deficit to beat the Choco Mucho Flying Titans, 20-25, 26-28, 25-23, 25-23, 15-13, in the 2026–27 PVL All-Filipino Conference Siklab Series at the SM Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay.
After winning the third and fourth sets, Farm Fresh fell behind 7-9 in the decider. Mylene Paat-Rezanova and Trisha Tubu then led a 5-1 run that put the Foxies ahead 12-10. Choco Mucho tied it at 12-12 after back-to-back errors from Royse Tubino and Riri Meneses.
Paat-Rezanova regained the lead with a hit off the block, and Eya Laure’s down-the-line attack went out to give Farm Fresh match point at 14-12. Laure saved the first match point, but Tubu ended the match with a crosscourt kill on the next rally.
“Siguro po, ‘yung mindset po namin na hindi na puwedeng mangyari ‘yung nangyari noong last game, kasi ‘yung last game po namin, ganoon din naunahan kami ng two sets, umabot kami ng fifth set, tapos nakulangan kami ng konti,” said Tubu.
Paat-Rezanova led the Foxies with 15 points on 11 attacks and 4 blocks. Tubu added 14 points on 13 attacks, including 6 of Farm Fresh’s first 7 points in the fifth set. Tubino scored 12, and Jonna Perdido had 11.
