Check out the Top 10 highest set scores in men’s volleyball.
The leaders Berlin Recycling Volleys emerged victorious from a big match against United Volleys Frankfurt, taking advantage of the third straight defeat of their major title rivals VfB Friedrichshafen. Berlin made an 8-point stock compared to them prior to the continuation of the battles in 2020. The win of Berlin in the last round this year was everything but easy as United Volleys imposed themselves as worthy opponents. After all, their position in the charts (No.4) suggests they have the capacity to play strong. Mostly thanks to American Kyle Ensing, the team from the German capital prevailed over United Volleys (the Dutchman Floris van Rekom scored 22 points) by a 3-2 (27-25, 20-25, 25-20, 21-25, 15-8) to remain undefeated with 12-0.
