The Creamline Cool Smashers have won their record-extending eighth Premier Volleyball League (PVL) championship by defeating sister team Choco Mucho Flying Titans in the 2024 All-Filipino Conference Finals.

This victory marks Creamline's fourth consecutive championship title, completing a four-peat.

Team captain Alyssa Valdez described this conference as their most difficult, challenging, and unpredictable journey yet.

Creamline secured the fourth seeding in the semifinals after a loss to Choco Mucho and ended the eliminations with an 8-3 record.

The championship-clinching Game 2 on May 12 was won in five sets with a score of 20-25, 25-20, 22-25, 25-22, and 15-11 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum, with 23,163 fans in attendance.

Jema Galanza was named Finals MVP after scoring 20 attack points and expressed confidence in winning more titles for Creamline.

The championship was particularly challenging for Creamline due to players leaving for overseas leagues, injuries, and needing to figure out team improvements, with Valdez herself playing limited minutes due to injury.
