Barbados start CAZOVA U19 with 3-0 victory over T&T
 

SPANISH TOWN, Jamaica, July 22, 2019 - Barbados secured an easy 3-0 victory over Trinidad and Tobago as the Caribbean Zonal Volleyball Association Boys' Under-19 tournament began at GC Foster of Physical Education and Sports in Spanish Town, Jamaica.

 

Barbados' victory was set up by beautiful power hitting that overpowered Trinidad and Tobago's blocking ability, which was the best feature of their game, as Barbados won 25-14, 25-14, 25-21.

 

Barbados shot into an early 3-0 lead after stealing the opening serve and maintained a dominant position with spikes to different sections of the court, although Trinidad and Tobago often nullified them with super blocking.

 

The second set was similar to the first with Barbados establishing a 15-8 lead and doing enough to keep ahead of their opponents to win the set.

 

With their girls' team in the stands vociferously egging them on, Trinidad and Tobago put in a better effort in the third set but came up short as the power hitting of Barbados was once again decisive in the result.
