MANILA, Philippines — Former NCAA MVP Mycah Go is juggling College of Saint Benilde’s four-peat bid in the ongoing Season 100 and her dream to enter the PVL—officially, this time.
Go was signed by Farm Fresh when it joined the league two years ago but never suited up due to an ACL injury. That’s why she has to go through the 2025 PVL Rookie Draft on June 8 at Novotel.

“I’m definitely excited. I’ve been wanting to go pro for a long time, and now that it’s finally happening, it feels great,” Go told reporters in Filipino. “Just like everyone else, I’m really excited to take the next step into the pro league.”
The Lady Blazer is eager to prove herself again to earn a spot, even while still competing in the NCAA.

On Friday, Go dropped by the Draft Combine at Paco Arena before heading to FilOil EcoOil Centre, where she helped St. Benilde complete a second-round sweep with a 25-20, 25-18, 25-12 win over Lyceum to enter the Final Four with a 16-2 record.
“That’s how it is. Once the NCAA ends, this is the next step. So I really have to be prepared,” Go said.
Her CSB teammates Clo Mondoñedo, Mich Gamit, and Gayle Pascual made their PVL playoff debuts with ZUS Coffee during its breakout 2024–25 All-Filipino campaign.

Go is not rushing her way to catch up to the pro achievements of her fellow Lady Blazers Al she wants is to help the team that will trust her in the draft.
“I’m very open and willing to learn whatever a team needs from me. I really want to contribute in any way I can,” she said. “I feel very ready. But since I’m coming from an injury, I just want to keep improving consistently.”

Go is determined to apply all her learnings from CSB and ZUS coach Jerry Yee, who accompanied her on Day 1 of the combine.
“I’ve learned a lot from Coach Jerry. He really helped me grow. So whoever picks me in the pros, I feel like I’ll be bringing everything I learned from him to the team,” she said.
