PVL 2026 All Filipino-Siklab Series ZUS Coffee def. Galeries Tower, 3-2 Chai Troncoso Player of the Game #PVL2026
MANILA, Philippines — Amid all the twists and turns of the elimination round, defending champion San Beda University secured the Group A top seed after toppling College of Saint Benilde, 82-69, in the NCAA Season 102 men’s basketball tournament on Tuesday afternoon at the Filoil EcoOil Centre in San Juan City. Despite being tied with Jose Rizal University (JRU) with a 10-3 win-loss record, San Beda took the top spot in the “Group of Death,” due to the win-over-the-other rule. San Beda defeated JRU twice in the elimination round, giving the Mendiola-based squad the advantage. Taking the one-two slot in Group A, both San Beda and JRU head to the quarterfinals with a twice-to-beat incentive. The Yuri Escueta-mentored team will either face Group B’s bottom teams, Perpetual and San Sebastián, which will clash in the play-in round San Sebastián needs to win over Perpetual twice in order to earn a quarterfinals slot. Andrei Ugaddan led the scoring for San Beda with 18 points and five rebounds, while Jimmy Reyes added 12 points. “We just trained, and we really worked hard for it, as you can see. We made sure to get back over Benilde,” rookie Ugaddan said after the game. Two more Red Lions hit the double-digit mark, with Aldous Torculas putting up 11 points, while John Bonzalida added 10. Justine Sanchez put up the fight for Benilde with 15 points, while Jhomel Ancheta added 10. Benilde fell to an 8-5 win-loss record and is seeded third in Group A. The Blazers will face Emilio Aguinaldo College (EAC).
Although the game had no bearing on the standings, Letran still had one more fight to win in the eliminations and Jimboy Estrada made sure the Knights got the last laugh with a game-winning triple to seal an 85-83 victory over Perpetual on Tuesday.

MANILA, Philippines — Trisha Tubu scored eight points in the deciding frame alone to allow the Farm Fresh Foxies to snap the three-game winning streak of the PLDT High Speed Hitters, 20-25, 25-17, 23-25, 25-20, 17-15, in the 2026-27 Premier Volleyball League All-Filipino Conference-Siklab Series on Tuesday at the Araneta Coliseum in Cubao, Quezon City. Farm Fresh improved to a 4-2 win-loss record to enjoy solo third in the standings, behind conference leaders Nxled (5-0) and Creamline (4-1). Tubu exploded for 30 points—all on attacks—along with nine excellent digs, marking her best performance against the tough PLDT squad since the PVL Invitational Conference. She had only scored five points in her previous meeting with PLDT in the Invitational Conference. “Whenever I face PLDT, I struggle to score 10 points or higher,” Tubu told the media in Filipino. “They give me the confidence because I am confident in scoring and spiking, knowing that someone covers the floor. We know PLDT is a blocking team, and I used to struggle getting my shots past them, but the trust of my teammates makes the difference,” she added. Aside from Tubu, Royse Tubino delivered a double-double performance of 14 points and 13 excellent receptions. Alohi Robins-Hardy orchestrated the offense with 23 excellent sets, helping two more Farm Fresh gunners score in double digits as Mylene Rezanova chipped in 12 points and Ces Molina added 11. PLDT, which came into the match riding a three-game winning streak, relied on Savi Davison’s monster triple-double performance of 23 points, 23 excellent digs, and 19 excellent receptions, but it was not enough to conquer the gritty Foxies. Jovie Prado and Kianna Dy contributed 13 and 10 points, respectively, in the defeat. The victory marked Farm Fresh's fifth five-set match of the conference, bringing their record in deciders to 3-2. Looking ahead, Farm Fresh will next face Capital 1, while PLDT aims to bounce back against Galeries on Saturday at the PhilSports Arena.
Trisha Tubu unleashed timely hits to steer Farm Fresh to a 20-25, 25-17, 23-25, 25-20, 17-15 win against PLDT in the 2026 PVL All-Filipino Conference Siklab Series on Tuesday at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
