Trisha Tubu showed why she is the reigning Season Most Valuable Player (MVP), spearheading the Farm Fresh Foxies’ charge to a second straight semifinals appearance in the Premier Volleyball League (PVL) Season 10 All-Filipino Conference Siklab Series.

At the center of Farm Fresh’s continued rise is the five-time Best Opposite Spiker, who answered the call with explosive performances against Capital1 and PLDT to earn the PVL Press Corps Player of the Week honors for the period of 10 to 14 November.

The ever-reliable product of Adamson University unloaded a 25-point bomb over the Solar Spikers in their 25-17, 25-21, 23-25, 25-23 triumph on Saturday, which sealed the Foxies at least a Top 4 finish in the preliminary round.

Tubu, known for her spiking brilliance, finished with 25 kills on 54 attack attempts, outdueling Capital1 sophomore Bella Belen as Farm Fresh snapped its string of five-set matches by closing out the contest in four frames.

The impressive performance came on the heels of her 30-point eruption against contender PLDT earlier in the week.

It was a match where she took over in the endgame, wearing the heroic cape and fired the crucial spikes which allowed Farm Fresh complete an escape act, 20-25, 25-17, 23-25, 25-20, 17-15 — ending the High Speed Hitters’ three-game winning run in the process.

For the weekly citation, Tubu bested Choco Mucho’s Sisi Rondina and Deanna Wong, Nxled’s EJ Laure-Cariño, PLDT’s Savi Davison and ZUS Coffee’s AC Miner.

Tubu shared that while all her former Farm Fresh mentors contributed to her development, current head coach Koji Tsuzurabara’s perfectionist approach and attention to the finer details have helped her minimize mistakes on the court.

“Every Farm Fresh coach that I’ve been under has given me important input personally. Coach Koji’s (Tsuzurabara) influence on me is the perfectionist Japanese culture. He’s always telling us that even one small mistake during training will show up in games,” Tubu said after the Foxies’ match against Capital1.
