Antigua Thrills Home Crowd
ST JOHNS, Antigua, July 7, 2016 - Crowd favorite Jamarie James
(#1 – ANT) was unstoppable from every position. He aced with his
serves, he blocked and when he hit – you thought perhaps the
opposition British Virgin Islands should send for helmets. The
scores were 25-15, 25-14 and 25-9 at the end
IVB’s coach Stephen Payne felt that his team would do better;
that they were inexperienced and clearly awed by the occasion.
He was quick to congratulate Antigua though for an excellent
showing
Antigua’s captain Adrian Constant thought that personally he was
absent without leave in the first set, but found his rhythm
after he settled down. It’s a big occasion for him and the team
and he intends to leave it all on the court |
