National University's Jaja Santiago won the Best Attacker award, while Philippine Air Force's Maika Ortiz and Rhea Dimaculangan were hailed as the Best Blocker and Best Setter, respectively.
 
Shiela Pineda of Cagayan Valley received the Best Digger award, and PLDT Home Telpad libero Lizlee Ann Gata-Pantone nabbed the Best Receiver to complete the individual awards. — JST, GMA News
