GUADALAJARA, Mexico, April 9, 2010 – Curacao
ended in ninth place after today’s defeat by
Canada in consecutive sets with a score of
25-15, 25-18, 25-30 in the fourth day of the
NORCECA Continental Boys’ Youth Tournament.
The Canadian team was always ahead in the score
though the islanders, who definitely didn’t have
anything to lose and a lot to win in an event of
this nature, did everything they could to put
pressure on the northern team.
William Bremmer was the game’s best scorer with
8 points and on the rival’s side, Quinten
Anthony contributed seven points in a match that
didn’t yield any surprises but just the
possibility for Canada to improve the 8th
place.
Donald Saxton, Canadian Technical Director,
commented “these are good opportunities to play
and gain international experience. I’m pleased
today because my kids played well in the back
defense but not so great at the net.”
William Bremmer, Canadian Team Captain, said he
was proud of his teammates “because we won and I
also congratulate Curacao as they put up some
good resistance.”
