You know, I can&#x27;t wrap my head around it yet, maybe in an hour or two, but I&#x27;m sure tomorrow, when we start talking about it, I&#x27;ll kind of connect, but I&#x27;m just proud of everybody,&quot; said Davison, who also listed nine excellent digs and nine excellent receptions, completing a stellar all-around performance.&quot;I&#x27;m proud to be a part of it all. I&#x27;m super proud of our community who supports us and loves us. So, it&#x27;s just great. It&#x27;s a good feeling,&quot; she added.Dy finished with 14 points, while skipper Kath Arado kept away points from Creamline with 16 excellent digs and 23 excellent receptions.For their part, the Cool Smashers failed to make the finals for the first time since 2022.The last time they missed the championship round was in the 2022 Reinforced Conference, where they settled for the bronze medal at Chery Tiggo&#x27;s expense.Galanza paced the Cool Smashers nest with 20 points, Valdez showed flashes of her vintage form with 18 points, as Gumabao completed the MVP-trio&#x27;s double-double showing with 16 markers.<script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAFz8gWM8iRADsJr&amp;cid=ABeWdak0-wnQzXJI"></script>
