Costa Rica finished in seventh place

BAYAMON, Puerto Rico, September 27, 2009 – Costa Rica defeated Trinidad & Tobago in the match for the seventh position of the NORCECA Women’s Continental Championship. The score was 25-18, 25-22, 25-23.

Verania and Angela Willis paced Costa Rica with 14 and 13 points and Karen Cope added 9 tallies. Krystle Esdelle recorded a match-high 17 points for the losers.

“We came here without some of our regulars and couldn’t finish in the position we had in mind,” said Braulio Godinez, the coach of Costa Rica. “But I was a good opportunity to see some other players in action.”

“I think the tournament was a real challenge for us,” said Francisco Cruz, the coach of Trinidad & Tobago. “The team got more experience and now I have the chance to work in some of our deficiencies.”
