      The Cabanatuan native turned emotional accepting the first MVP of her 13-year career.

      "Semi pros, collegiate, hindi [pa ko nakapag-MVP] kaya naiiyak talaga ako," she said. "It's both pressure and inspiration kasi lahat ng tao mag-e-expect na and hahanapan ka lagi ng result."

      Keeping herself grounded, Molina said her goal is to keep showing up for her team.
