MANILA – Farm Fresh opposite hitter Trisha Gayle Tubu was named Premier Volleyball League (PVL) Press Corps Player of the Week for Nov. 10-14 after leading the Foxies to their second straight semifinals appearance in the All-Filipino Conference Siklab Series.

Tubu scored 25 points against Capital1 Solar Spikers in Farm Fresh's 25-17, 25-21, 23-25, 25-23 victory last Saturday, securing the Foxies at least a Top 4 finish in the preliminary round.

She also delivered 30 attack points as Farm Fresh survived PLDT, 20-25, 25-17, 23-25, 25-20, 17-15, on Nov. 10.

Perhaps that’s it — even during training, as Maicah Larroza mentioned, she is extremely strict about the small details​)," added the reigning MVP.

With Farm Fresh now carrying a 5-2 win-loss record, a twice-to-beat advantage in the playoffs is within reach.
