Stalzer plans to return to Petron

Lindsay Stalzer may be wearing a svelte white cocktail dress, but in everything that she does volleyball eventually got into the conversation.

Petron’s talismanic open hitter was in the opening ceremonies of the 43rd season of the PBA to walk as San Miguel’s muse, and Stalzer said she plans to return to the Philippine Super Liga Grand Prix in 2018.

“I think the plan is to come back for the next Grand Prix, I believe [I’ll be back],” said Stalzer Sunday at Smart Araneta Coliseum. “We walked with Petron a little bit and I think they’re just putting together a contract so we’ll see.”

Stalzer was instrumental in two of Foton’s Grand Prix titles but she wasn’t able to replicate her success with the Blaze Spikers when she joined this year.

After winning the first game in the three-game series, Petron lost two straight to champion F2 Logistics in the championship round with the Blaze Spikers falling in the third game, 25-20, 25-20, 20-25, 25018.

And as Stalzer starts her offseason away from the PSL, she said it was a welcome reprieve that she was able to go into a relaxed mode and don something other than a volleyball uniform.

“It’s really fun to kickoff this event, this season, and I’m just happy to be part of it,” said Stalzer. “They just asked me a few days ago, and it’s always fun to dress up and wear something other than volleyball clothes.”
