Petro Gazz is chasing the only championship in the PVL that it hasn’t won, and from the looks of it, the Angels are making a run at it using a lot of different pieces that helped them win their last of two import-spiced titles.

One of them is a retirement-bound setter who had openly professed her dream to win the All-Filipino championship.

“I would like to win the All-Filipino before I retire,” Chie Saet, just 40 years young and already a grandma, said as a career rejuvenation has highlighted Petro Gazz’s sterling run in the playoffs. She was very open about that in an earlier television interview, way before she had proven to be key as to why the Angels are two wins away from securing the first title series slot.

It wasn’t how Alyssa Valdez and the Creamline Cool Smashers wanted to start their 2024-25 PVL All-Filipino Conference semifinals campaign.

But they have no choice but to move forward, needing to win back-to-back games to keep their “five-peat” bid alive after the Cool Smashers were stunned by the peaking Petro Gazz Angels, 23-25, 22-25, 25-21, 16-25, on Saturday evening in front of more than 5,900 fans at Ynares Center Antipolo.

The Petro Gazz Angels proved they weren’t just about reigning MVP Brooke Van Sickle and resurgent star Myla Pablo.

Petro Gazz flaunted its depth to take down defending champion Creamline, 25-23, 25-22, 21-25, 25-16, and win its first semifinal game in the 2024-25 PVL All-Filipino Conference on Saturday at Ynares Center here.
