We are very happy about our wins no matter who the competition is once we get to the finals and win it”.
Despite the loss, Damari Frederick, captain of St. Vincent, stated, “We don’t feel too good about the losses, but we know we are putting in our best to win the games, but we have to find different strategy, communicate better and keep trying our best. Our motive as defending champions was to head back home with the championship, but it is not going the way we expected it to go so we just must try and win the rest of our games”.
