The 27-year-old outside hitter out of San Pedro Laguna unloaded an all-around performance of 20 points and 13 excellent receptions in Game 1 as the Cool Smashers downed the Choco Mucho Flying Titans, 24-26, 25-20, 25-21, 25-16 last Thursday.

“Gusto ko po munang magpasalamat sa lahat ng nanood sa championship namin against Choco Mucho. Congratulations syempre sa Rebisco!” said Galanza.
“Maraming salamat sa mga teammates ko, coaches, naglalaro tayo para sa isa’t isa. Bumabangon tayo sa araw-araw kasi love natin yung volleyball!” she remarked.
This marks her first-ever Finals MVP trophy in the PVL in her eight championships with the Cool Smashers.
Galanza also won Best Outside Spiker at this conference alongside Choco Mucho’s Sisi Rondina.
