Tots Carlos sees silver lining in Creamline defeat vs. Choco Mucho

MANILA, Philippines — Not all is lost for Tots Carlos, even after Creamline ended its seven-game winning streak over sister team Choco Mucho. As the more accomplished sister team with 11 Premier Volleyball League titles, Creamline holds a commanding 19-2 all-time record over Choco Mucho. The Cool Smashers needed to win over the Flying Titans to bolster their twice-to-beat advantage bid in the semifinals of the 2026-27 Premier Volleyball League (PVL) All-Filipino Conference-Siklab Series. But the defeat led them to fall to a 4-2 win-loss record, tied with the Farm Fresh Foxies, trailing behind semis-bound Nxled (5-0). Carlos, the league’s three-time Most Valuable Player (MVP) shared that despite what was at stake with the loss, Creamline’s rhythm showed. “I think the team’s progress is showing; we’re starting to find our rhythm. Honestly, we’re happy with how we played. Of course it’s still a loss, but at the same time, our rhythm is getting better, and everyone really contributed,” Carlos, who made 13 points in a five-set heartache over Choco Mucho said in Filipino. With Choco Mucho holding a 2-1 set advantage, Creamline forced a decider. Both teams exchanged blows in the fifth frame, but Choco Mucho Eya Laure proved to be handy in the clutch, as she led the team to a match-point advantage, 14-11. Knowing how Creamline can dig deep despite on deficit, Carlos scored back-to-back points in attempt to force a deuce in the match, 14-13. But Caitlin Viray slammed an off-the-block hit to avoid an equalizer, allowing Choco Mucho to escape with a victory, 15-13. Recalling this exchange in the deciding frame, Carlos said that there’s nothing much to say as Choco Mucho played better. “I think we have to give credit to Choco Mucho, their coaches, and their staff—they prepared well for us. I’d say that was pure effort and heart from them.” “They fought hard, and it just so happened that we came up short. But all their effort was there. They never stopped fighting, even on balls that were already far away. They just didn’t give up. I think Choco Mucho played a great game today.”
