  • Ya Exhibe Sorpresas La Copa Mundial De Voleibol Para Hombres
    Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Ya exhibe sorpresas la Copa Mundial de Voleibol para hombres Entre los resultados inesperados de las dos primeras jornadas del certamen está la victoria de Puerto Rico sobre EE.UU., lo que no ocurría desde hacía 30 años Publicado: Martes 20 noviembre 2007 | 01:19:12 am. Publicado por: Ricardo Quiza Dos jornadas han bastado para que la Copa del Mundo de Voleibol para hombres exhiba sus primeras sorpresas, sinónimo de que el camino resultará bastante complicado para los pronósticos. Los boricuas (izquierda) no le ganaban a Estados Unidos desde 1977. Foto: FIVB El primer resultado inesperado fue la victoria de Puerto Rico sobre Estados Unidos, tres sets por uno, en el segundo cartel efectuado en la ciudad japonesa de Matsumoto. Imagínense que eso no ocurría desde hacía 30 años, en el torneo NORCECA de 1977. Los boricuas, que al cierre marchaban invictos con dos triunfos en el grupo A, al igual que Rusia y Bulgaria, dependieron fundamentalmente de su astro Héctor «Pinky» Soto, quien anotó 29 puntos, secundado por José Rivera (14). Y el éxito tiene mayor envergadura si tomamos en consideración que Estados Unidos reúne en su nómina a siete jugadores con experiencia olímpica: Lloy Ball, Gabriel Gardner, Thomas Hoff, Ryan Millar, William Priddy, Riley Salmon y Clayton Stanley. Es evidente que el entrenador estadounidense, Hugh McCutheon, quiere conseguir ahora uno de los tres boletos en litigio para los Juegos Olímpicos de Beijing 2008, y ya engrasa la maquinaria para la cita estival. Tan en serio va el asunto que el día anterior, fueron los propios estadounidenses los protagonistas de otro resultado poco esperado, aunque no tan insólito, al pulverizar al más prominente conjunto de los últimos años, Brasil, en sets corridos.

  • Volleyball DIVISION I
    Volleyball DIVISION I 2009 Championship Highlights Penn State Erases Two-Set Deficit To Take Unprecedented Third Straight Crown Over Texas: Since before the season started, this was the matchup that the college volleyball world had dreamed of. And did it turn out to be a sweet reality. One of the most highly anticipated NCAA Championship matches of all-time delivered in every way possible, ending with No. 1 Penn State (38-0) becoming the first team to claim three consecutive national titles, with a 22-25, 20-25, 25-23, 25-21, 15-13 victory over second-seeded Texas (29-2) on December 19 in the St. Pete Times Forum. Penn State and Texas held the top two spots in every version of the AVCA poll this season, occupied the top two seeds in the NCAA tournament and lost just one set apiece in the Tournament en route to advancing to the title match. Their combined 66-1 record coming in was the second-best ever among teams in the final. Despite the high expectations, this match didn’t disappoint - de- livering an individual performance for the ages, high-level play all the way and a stirring comeback from the champions. In what seemed to be fitting, the match came down to one final set—and it was just as exciting as the rest of the match. The score was tied for the 10th time in the fifth at 12-12, when Darcy Dorton’s kill nudged Penn State ahead. On the next point, Texas’ Destinee Hooker sent an attack attempt long, which gave the Nittany Lions a match point.
