“It is good to go back home with this victory,” said Ludger Niles, the coach of Barbados. “We need to play more matches against teams like Mexico, Panama and Dominican Republic. We have a two-year working plan and now we have to go back and continue that trend.”

“We started well winning the first set but suddenly we started to make many mental mistakes and they took advantage of it,” said Brown, the captain of Panama. “Our blocking wasn’t good after the first set and we let them to take the momentum. They played better than us and deserved the win.”
