It was the second win in as many meetings for the 18th NORCECA ranked Hondurans over Anguilla, ranked 22nd, after registering a 25-15, 25-12, 25-11 win in their round-robin encounter on Saturday’s opening day of the tournament.
Webster, speaking after the defeat said she was extremely disappointed with the outcome as she had hoped for a better fight from her team.
“We now have to go home and start from scratch on the drawing board and try and work on the many things we have to to improve from this tournament,” added Webster.
Flores described the victory as a bitter sweet one, saying “We are happy that we won the match to finish third, but disappointed in that we were not among the top two, to qualify automatically for the next round.”
Justus Connor, the Anguilla coach was also not happy with the level of play from his team.
“We did not do as well we should have and this was mainly because of passing and attacking game was not up to standard.”
Marvin Ulloa, coach of the Honduras team while happy with the win said his team needs to be consistent.
“We did not well in each match, we were up and down in our level of play and this can be attributed by the lack of matches at home.”
