PVL Media BureauANTIPOLO — Petro Gazz ace Brooke Van Sickle bared her birthday wish as she celebrated her special day on Saturday, March 22.</div>Van Sickle, who turned 27 exactly on this date, said that she just wanted her team to come out and &quot;play as themselves.&quot;Her wish got granted as the Angels emerged with the Antipolo win, 25-19, 25-13, 28-26, to even their best-of-three quarterfinals series against Zus Coffee in the 2024-25 Premier Volleyball League (PVL) All-Filipino Conference at the Ynares Center.Aside from Van Sickle, three other Angels breached twin-digit scoring — MJ Phillips, Myla Pablo, and Jonah Sabete — who all dropped 11 points each.Playmaker Chie Saet steered that offensive showing with 18 excellent sets.No matter what the result would be, Van Sickle said she&#x27;ll be proud of the team as long as they put up a fight.<div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/sports/volleyball/2025/3/22/pvl-petro-gazz-avenges-upset-loss-vs-zus-coffee-in-qf-opener-forces-decider-1754">READ: PVL: Petro Gazz avenges upset loss vs Zus Coffee in QF opener, forces decider </a></div>&quot;My birthday wish was for the team to come out and play as themselves, just to have good energy,&quot; said Van Sickle after the match.<div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/sports/volleyball/2025/3/18/pvl-thunderbelles-rewarding-gonzagas-faith-in-cinderella-run-2307">READ: PVL: Gonzaga always believed Zus Coffee had potential. The Thunderbelles are showing it now. </a></div>&quot;I told the team after last game that if we play our game, we&#x27;re fighting and we still end up losing, I&#x27;m still proud of team, because just to put the effort out there 100% and just to enjoy the game is all I really want from this team.&quot;Her wish was somehow a reflection of their Game 1 defeat at the hands of the Thunderbelles.&quot;It sucks. No one likes losing. I guess we were more pressured as a team because we knew that wasn&#x27;t how we played, and our energy was low. It was just all around not a good outcome and result of our performance,&quot; she said.&quot;Zus did a great job, they&#x27;re a tough team, and I thought, like Creamline, they&#x27;re one of the better defensive teams in the PVL right now. Just to be able to bounce back from that is huge.&quot;
