MANILA, Philippines — Maddie Madayag made her comeback for Choco Mucho after a fruitful stint with Kurobe Aquafairies in the Japan SV.League and Alas Pilipinas.

Madayag saw limited action but made a huge impact, scoring five points, including the back-to-back kill blocks that sealed Choco Mucho’s 33-31, 26-24, 25-23 sweep of Capital1 on Tuesday night at Ynares Center Montalban.

“I guess playing overseas and with the national team helps a lot, too. But PVL is a different situation, so I still need to adjust a bit. In training though, I try to share whatever I’ve learned from my experience outside. I’m just really happy that I get to contribute more in that way,” said Madayag in Filipino.

Madayag was thrilled to contribute and don the Flying Titans jersey once again as well as teaming up with new faces.

“I just did my job when I was sent in, and as always, we just follow the system. As long as we stick to that and stay on the right track, I think the outcome of the game will turn out well,” she said.

“Our new players are really brave, and I’m super proud and happy to have them on the team. We know they can really bring a lot to the table.”

Choco Mucho will have to repeat its triumph performance against Capital1 after the league and participating teams agreed to replay the opening games after missing their imports due to the dispute over International Transfer Certificates.

It will give Madayag more time to reconnect and form a stronger bond with the Flying Titans.
