Havana, August 21 (ACN) -- The Cuban women's volleyball team will face today the host Dominican Republic in search of the second success in the Pan American Cup of North, Central America and the Caribbean (Norceca) of Santo Domingo 2023, a tournament that will take place until the 26th.

After defeating Puerto Rico 3-0 (25-21, 25-14 and 25-18) this Sunday, the Cubans will face the Quintana Roo players, who defeated Mexico 3-0 (25-14, 25-18 and 25-11) in the first round of preliminaries in the round-robin system.

To beat the locals, the disciples of new coach Leivis Garcia will have to do everything right as they did against the Puerto Ricans, whom they outplayed in all aspects of the game, with a better performance in attack (35 points to 28), blocking (12-4), service (6-2) and errors (19-21).

The best individuals were outside hitter Ivy May Vila, top scorer of the match with 14 points, 13 in attack and one in service, opposite Greisy Fine Martinez (11/7-2-2) and middle blocker Jessica Aguilera (9/9-5-4-0).

In the other Sunday match, the United States topped Canada 3-0 (25-16, 25-11 and 25-15), according to www.norceca.net.

Monday's schedule is completed with the challenges between Mexicans and Canadians, and Americans and Puerto Ricans.

The semifinal phase is scheduled for the 25th between the four best placed teams, while the fifth and sixth places will fight to avoid the last place of the tournament that will conclude on the 26th with the discussion of the bronze and gold medals, in that order.
