Moises Ortiz, middle blocker from Dominican Republic: \u201cIt was a really good match. We adjusted well today, came prepared and stayed focused. We continued working as a team, and I\u2019m hopeful that everything will be positive moving forward. We stayed united, supporting each other through mistakes and moments of frustration, always maintaining a positive attitude. Now, we need to stay focused and keep moving in the same direction to succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thomas Friesen, outside hitter from Canada: \u201cIt was a really close match. They played very well, and we played slightly less well. They were a tough team to stop offensively and served effectively. It was a fun match to play, but unfortunately, we didn\u2019t find a way to win. I like our attitude, always staying aggressive and with energy. Now, we\u2019ll get a little rest, review some video of what we\u2019ve done and what Suriname has done, and work on fixing our mistakes. I know we have a good chance against them, and we\u2019ll give it our best.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
