RIO DE JANEIRO — Canada picked up an important victory in Volleyball Nations League action on Saturday night with a 25-21, 25-13, 20-25 and 25-17 over winless Thailand.
Canada, which started the day ranked 11th and trying to nail down an Olympic berth, improved to 3-1 in the VNL competition.
“There are no easy games in this tournament. Tonight, we knew we had to be patient in attack and clean on block. Thailand’s defence was outstanding and made it difficult to score, but our team shared the load tonight to get over the line,” said Canada's head coach Shannon Winzer. The top scorer of the match was Kiera Van Ryk of Surrey, B.C., who is leading VNL with 85 points in the tournament.
