WIRE-TO-WIRE, GAME-BY-GAME 🏆 Team Faith’s season ended the same way it began, in control. Finishing the eliminations as the #1 seed with a perfect 4–0 record, they carried that momentum into the playoffs, taking down Team Kyla in the semifinals and Team Nisa in the finals to secure the Players Only Women’s Draft League Season 1 championship. Their run was built on balance and consistency. Season MVP Jhenn Angeles orchestrated the offense and led all players in assists, while Finals MVP Betts Peñaflor delivered efficiency inside and topped the league in field goal percentage. Charlene May Ong anchored the paint as the blocks leader, and Mica Pentecostes stretched defenses with her league-best three-point shooting. At the center of it all was Faith Andan, whose leadership earned her Captain of the Season honors and helped guide the group through every stage of the competition. But this championship was more than individual accolades, it was a complete team effort. Every player contributed, whether through defense, timely baskets, hustle plays, or steady minutes that kept the momentum going. The depth, trust, and collective commitment defined Team Faith’s identity all season long. From the opening tip of eliminations to the final buzzer of the championship, Team Faith set the standard: composed, connected, and deserving inaugural champions.
