Poland and Russia remain on track to defend the titles they seized last year at the 2009 European U20 Beach Volleyball Championships in the Marina of this Greek island of the Dodecanese.
In the men’s competition, Damian Wojtasik/Marek Leznicki finished at the top of their pool and then scored straight-set victories in the double elimination phase over Greece and Germany, to remain undefeated in the men’s tournament, as they seek to defend the title won last year by their fellow Poles Michal Kadziola/Jakub Szalankiewicz. Also undefeated in Round III are the Ukraine’s Valeriy Samoday/Sergiy Popov, Spain’s Jesus Castizo Diaz/Victor Bouza Ferreiro and Germany’s Jannis Ulke/Finn Dittelbach. Twelve more teams, from Latvia, Germany, Denmark, Italy, Slovakia, France, Poland, Russia, Austria, Belarus, the Czech Republic and Greece also remain in contention, albeit in the losers’ bracket, with one last chance remaining to be exploited on Friday morning.
Despite finishing third in their pool with a single victory, Russia’s Ekaterina Raevskaya/Anna Alova shut out Switzerland’s Joana Heidrich/Tanja Goricanec and Germany’s Cinja Tillmann/ Teresa Mersmann in the double elimination phase and continue undefeated in their quest to defend the title won last year by Anna Markova/Evgenia Ukolova.
Round III in the winners’ bracket also features Germany’s Pia Riedel/Isabell Schneider, Poland’s Daria Paszek/Renata Bekier and Italy’s Marta Menegatti/Debora Allegretti. Alive in the tournament, but continuing in the losers’ bracket, are also two teams each from Greece and the Czech Republic and one each from Cyprus, Poland, the Netherlands, Germany, Norway, Austria, the Ukraine and Switzerland.
The competition at the Marina of Kos continues all day on Friday and concludes on Saturday, with semi-finals in the morning and finals in the afternoon and later in the evening.
