Choco Mucho hiked its winning run to four after dumping Akari, 25-22, 19-25, 25-23, 25-15, in the PVL All-Filipino Conference Saturday night at PhilSports Arena in Pasig City.

“We had a great start and controlled the game, but in the second set, our receiving was a bit off. By the third set, we were able to adjust to what Akari was doing,” said coach Dante Alinsunurin.

“And it continued until the fourth set, so I’m very thankful for how we played. Every time we faced a problem, we were able to make the necessary adjustments and execute them well,” he added.

Sisi Rondina poured in 18 points, all but one from attacks, as Dindin Santiago-Manabat added 12 points to lift the Flying Titans to a 6-3 standing, similar with PLDT and Cignal.

In its 5 a.m. forecast, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) said Kristine’s maximum sustained winds reached 65 kilometers per hour (kph) near the center, with gusts of up to 90 kph.

“We made a lot of mistakes in the game earlier, and I got mad at myself because I was the first to lose focus. But I’m grateful to my teammates for the trust they gave me,” Rondina said.

Cams Victoria scored off a quick, Faith Nisperos came up with points through a tip and a kill through the block but it was already too late as Rondina ended the two hour and seven minute affair with an attack off the block.

Three Chargers ended up in double digits but it wasn’t enough to compensate for their 37 errors that doomed them to a level 5-5 record.

Ivy Lacsina finished with 18 points, Nisperos 13 points and Fifi Sharma 10 points, half of which came from blocks.

Justine Jazareno caught 16 excellent digs while Kamille Cal had 11 excellent sets.

Choco Mucho guns for a fifth straight win against Nxled, who just got its first win after 15 straight defeats earlier in the day, on Feb. 13 at Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
