U.S. Women Sitting volleyball team makes a clean sweep over Brazil – ECVD Continental Cup

The ECVD Continental Cup is currently underway in Yevpatoriya, Ukraine, and saw the U.S. Women Sitting Volleyball team up against the Brazilian squad in the evening of September 6. What followed was a match that was dominated by the Americans as they were
able to make a clean sweep over their opponents at the following final set scores: 25-13, 27-25 and 25-4.
Initially, in the opening set the Brazilians tired to gain some head way but the Americans soon squashed any hopes that the Brazilian team may have had by taking the lead and soon extending the margin. Once the Americans got started in their blitzkrieg attack
it did not take them long to secure a win. The loss of the first set sent a wakeup call to the Brazilians and they stepped up their game in the second set that made the frame thrilling and competitive. Both the teams were locked together in a battle to end
the set on their terms but the Americans ended up grabbing the win. Losing the first two sets had a negative effect on the Brazilians as their performance experienced a dramatic fall which enabled the Americans to make a quick win out of the third set and
claim victory with a huge margin.
The Assistant coach of the American squad, Cara Lang, made the following comments at the press conference that was conducted after the match had reached its close: “Brazil was an ebb-and-flow match with a strong start for us in the first set. Brazil came
back with some quicker plays in the second set and pushed us. The girls decided they wanted to finish this day off on the right note and completed the match in the third set, 15-4. The scores at the technical timeouts were 8-0 and 16-2.”
The player that was able to make the highest number of points was Katie Holloway of the USA. Holloway registered a total of 17 points in the entire match by making the most kills at the figure of 14, two blocks as well as a service ace.
Overall, the U.S. outperformed the Brazilians in the attack as they were able to record a collective number of 56 kills while the Brazilians posted 46. Not only was the attack of the Americans side better, their defense was also doing a good job as it made
13 blocks as compared to the nine blocks of the Brazilians. The U.S. also served better than the Brazilians by making 13 aces while the Brazilians were able to pull off nine.
