PVL: Kyle Negrito proves worth as Creamline leader with Finals MVP
Kyle Negrito has been named the Finals MVP of the 2024 PVL Invitational Conference, proving her capability to lead the Creamline Cool Smashers.
She received the award after dishing out 25 excellent sets in Creamline's five-set victory over the Cignal HD Spikers to complete the league's first-ever grand slam and the team's 10th overall title.
This achievement serves as vindication for Negrito, who led Creamline to three titles this year in the absence of Jia De Guzman.
Despite past criticisms as a backup setter, Negrito steadily developed her skills and earned her second Best Setter award.
Visibly emotional after receiving the Finals MVP award, Negrito credited her teammates and coach for their support.
She stated that winning championships is their team's main focus, with individual awards being a bonus.
