Gumabao is a three-time UAAP champion, two-time Best Blocker winner and Finals Most Valuable Player back in Season 75 before foregoing her last playing year the following season.

With Gumabao, Gohing and Myla Pablo at the helm, the Pocari Sweat dominated the tournament winning the Open Conference and Reinforced Conference titles at the expense of Air Force and the Valdez-led Bureau of Customs, respectively.Creamline despite having collegiate aces Valdez and top setter Jia Morado settled for a third place finish in the PVL’s inaugural Reinforced and Open conferences.The PVL is tentatively scheduled to open April.This story was originally published on the <a href="https://sports.abs-cbn.com/pvl/news/2018/01/06/creamline-brings-gumabao-gohing-35696">ABS-CBN Sports website</a>.
