Cuba's water polo teams won by a wide margin on the second day of the XXXIV Central American and Caribbean Swimming Championship (CCCAN 2022) hosted by Barbados.

Havana, July 22 (JIT) - Cuba's water polo teams won by a wide margin on the second day of the XXXIV Central American and Caribbean Swimming Championship (CCCAN 2022) hosted by Barbados.

At the Aquatic Center Brigetown, the pupils of coach Mario Bermudez overcame 20-4 the host squad with highlights for the Cienfuegos players Remmy de Armas, with six goals, and Pedro Ponsa with seven.

"Arián Alberto Ferrer del Toro also stood out, but on defense," commented to JIT the national commissioner of the discipline, Antonio "Ñico" Cruz, who followed the match from Havana via Facebook.

The Cubans, who played today the last match of the day, are undefeated in two outings and will face Venezuela this Friday in a competition that will grant seven quotas in both sexes for the San Salvador 2023 event.

In the opening match, Bermudez's boys defeated Guatemala 21-3, in a tournament in which Puerto Rico, Mexico, Trinidad and Tobago and Bahamas are also participating.

In the girls' duel, Miguel Artires' students defeated the representatives of Trinidad and Tobago 35-3. Madonni Chavez, Thaimi Gonzalez, Rozala Quintero and Dalia Grau, with six goals per capita, led the offense.

The women from the largest Caribbean archipelago drew 15 goals with Mexico in the first appearance of both teams in the tournament, which is played in two rounds.

"Today, they were more connected. On Wednesday the defense was bad for both teams and the refereeing was not up to the level of a tournament of that level," Cruz compared.

The Cubans will compete this Friday against Puerto Rico in the most difficult match, according to the national commissioner.
