The Premier Volleyball League On Tour reaches its dramatic conclusion tonight as the PLDT High Speed Hitters and Chery Tiggo Crossovers collide in a winner-take-all showdown for the crown. Gametime is set at 6:30 p.m. at the SM Mall of Asia Arena, where fans are bracing for a high-stakes battle filled with intensity, skill, and championship determination.

Both squads arrive with contrasting journeys. PLDT enters unbeaten, dropping only three sets throughout the tournament, while Chery Tiggo has showcased resilience, surviving a mid-tournament slump before roaring back with grit and composure to secure their finals ticket.

PLDT’s height and firepower stand tall

The High Speed Hitters are peaking at the perfect moment, boasting an arsenal led by Savi Davison’s explosiveness, Kim Dy’s sharp attacking, and Jovie Prado’s steady wing play. At the net, Mika Reyes and Majoy Baron anchor one of the league’s strongest blocking duos, forming a defensive wall that can dictate the flow of the match.

Guiding the offense is veteran setter Kim Fajardo, supported by Angge Alcantara, while skipper Kath Arado anchors the backline with her stellar floor defense. For head coach Rald Ricafort, discipline and steady improvement remain the team’s cornerstone, with one mission in mind—finishing what they started.

Chery Tiggo banking on experience and composure

The Crossovers, however, thrive under pressure. With memories of their historic 2021 championship upset still fueling them, Chery Tiggo leans on veterans Cess Robles, Ara Galang, Imee Hernandez, and rookie standout Renee Peñafiel.

Head coach Norman Miguel emphasizes composure and mental strength, encouraging his team to stay calm in crucial moments. Underdogs on paper, the Crossovers carry a history of resilience and the ability to deliver when the odds are stacked against them.

The PVL On Tour, which has captivated fans across the provinces over the past two months, now comes down to one decisive night. Whether it is a single block, serve, or final spike, tonight’s duel will decide which team etches their name in PVL history.
