Pan - American Cup in Mexico (Jun 21-30)

Quote from "xopxeech"

Yes Demir, Stacey Gordon is playing for Canada in this tournament.....
she is been consistenlty the most valuable player for her team, however they lost 4 games and beat only Uruguay

They will play tomorrow for places 9 and 10 against Mexico.

Team Canada finishes 9th in the tournament. They had a very close one against Peru in the first match, had they won there, that would have bumped them up a bit in standings maybe.

Team Canada really needs Pavan there in addition to Gordon to have any kind of success in Norceca...

Cuba beat Brazil in the Gold Medal Match

Cuba 3 - 0 Brazil (25-14, 25-21, 25-20)

Congratulations to the Cuban players and to the Brazilian Girls.

Playing against adult teams and finishing first runner-up is a major achievement for a Junior's Team. I hope they could win the Junior World Championship in July. That would be the 4th in a row, since Brazil won this Competition in 2001 (Paula, Jaqueline, Sheilla and Sassá played this competition), 2003 (Fabiana Claudino played this competition), 2005 (Thaísa played this competition).
