sets to Croatia
LAUSANNE, Switzerland (CP) -- The Canadian women's
volleyball team was swept in straight sets (17-25, 20-25, 18-25) by Croatia at the
Montreux Valley Masters Tournament on Friday.
"I was disappointed with the team's lack of finish," said head coach Doug
Reimer. "They seemed well in the warm up then we lost our team spirit during the
match."
Rae-Ann Mitchell led Canada with 10 kills, while Kim Exner had four kills and three
blocks.
Canada sits fourth in their pool and play the Netherlands Saturday.
The tournament is a tune-up before the women's Olympic qualifier in Tokyo, June 17 to 25.
