St. Kitts and Nevis annihilates Saba to seal place in finals
MARIGOT, St. Martin, October 30, 2016 -
St. Kitts and Nevis recovered from last night’s defeat as they
trounced Saba with a 25- 5 ; 25- 5 ; 25- 3, score line. Team
St. Kitts and Nevis set aside their fatigue and played relaxed
volleyball. Leading the way were Genelle Howell, and Shanicia
Dyer, as they blistered the ball from all sides of the court.
The pillaging netted them thirteen and ten points respectively.
They were ably supported by a frugal defense and good
communication.
Despite tasting the bitter fruit of their opponents, Saba tried
withstanding the test. Unfortunately, the team moral ebbed and
it affected the entire game. Despite this, moments of
brilliance was seen. Joy-Ann Robinson showed lots of guts in
set two as she threw herself in all directions to prevent the
ball from falling.
Coach Collins and Captain Henry from St. Kitts indicated the
team served and communicated well. According to Coach Collins,
this match allowed us to find the rotation we were looking for.
Saba’s Coach Spence and Captain Berkel felt the team under
performed as they could have been tired but lack of experience
precipitated the results. However, both were optimistic
improvements will come through more exposure.
