Chery welcomes Eya with open arms

MANILA, Philippines — Eya Laure has found a home in the Premier Volleyball League in Chery Tiggo.

For the Crossovers, the charming former Santo Tomas Tigress could be the redeemer they have long been searching for.

Considered as one of the biggest, if not the biggest, recruiting coups in league history, Chery Tiggo will parade Laure and four other blue-chip rookies in Imee Hernandez, Cess Robles, Jennifer Nierva and Joyme Cagande, and install itself as one of the favorites in next month’s PVL Invitational.

The club team has officially announced in its social media accounts yesterday that it has signed all five prized finds.

“We are happy and thrilled to have them in our team. They are a great addition to our roster,” Chery Tiggo coach and manager Aaron Velez told The STAR.

The Laure-led magnificent five will bolster a franchise that already has last year’s Reinforced Conference MVP Mylene Paat and another Laure, EJ, but has yet to replicate its historic title run two years ago in the Bacarra, Ilocos Norte bubble.
