Jema Galanza emerged from the shadows of her most illustrious teammates, blasting in 11 attack points and two blocks for a 14-hit output as the Cool Smashers closed out their elims campaign with a fifth straight win for a 6-1 card. Alyssa Valdez still paced Creamline with 19 hits while Thai import Kuttika Kaewpin added 12 points. But Galanza has proved her worth in a star-studded roster, further firming up the Cool Smashers’ title drive in the season-opening conference of the league organized by Sports Vision. In contrast, the Lady Oragons absorbed their sixth straight defeat after an opening game victory over the BaliPure Water Defenders to finish at No. Cignal and Vice Co. closed the single round elims with identical 4-1 (win-loss) cards but the HD Spikers took the No.
