And, we can actually see how composed she was during that crucial point, especially in the fourth set,&quot; Valdez expressed.<div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/sports/volleyball/2025/10/14/pvl-mylene-paat-details-long-recovery-process-from-shoulder-injury-2032">READ: PVL: Mylene Paat details long recovery process from shoulder injury</a></div>&quot;And, it&#x27;s just so nice to have a teammate who&#x27;s like that, who can carry your whole team and actually bring the best out in all of us.&quot;The moment she was referring to was in the final frame, where Schwan carried Creamline&#x27;s offense in the face of Petro Gazz fightback.The American reinforcement scored four of Creamline&#x27;s last six points, weathering the comeback of Brooke Van Sickle and company on their way to a 25-20 Set 4 win.&quot;She&#x27;s very straightforward, very direct. And, that&#x27;s why we can really actually appreciate that. And, we&#x27;re all veterans here. That&#x27;s why I think open communication really works for us. And, most especially that crucial part, she was just owning it,&quot; added Valdez, referring to Schwan, whom they also call &quot;Coco.&quot;<div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/sports/volleyball/2025/10/14/pvl-ac-miner-zus-coffee-eager-to-build-on-2-0-start-2051">READ: PVL: AC Miner, Zus Coffee eager to build on 2-0 start </a></div>&quot;And, she&#x27;s actually, she&#x27;s not a reinforcement. She&#x27;s part of our team. She&#x27;s a Creamline Cool Smasher.&quot;Before that, trailing 12-15 midway in Set 4, the Cool Smashers unleashed a 6-0 run, also powered by Schwan&#x27;s offensive prowess.Three-time PVL MVPs Valdez and Tots Carlos were also there for local support, contributing 14 points each.Meanwhile, top plum recipient Van Sickle, who led the Angels&#x27; Set 3 win, finished with 26 points on 23 attacks, two aces, and one block, while Schwan&#x27;s counterpart Lindsey Vander Weide delivered a triple-double of 17 markers, 11 excellent digs, and 10 excellent receptions.<script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAFz8gWM8iRADsJr&amp;cid=ABm428LfctUd8GSO"></script>
