Maria Zonta, Argentina – “At some point I was without breath and I was very tired. We tried to do our best and we did our best. We started with tension so we couldn’t do the things we working on or thinking about before the match. We didn’t serve good in the first set. Then we played technical and with energy in the second set. We won and that’s the important thing and now we’ll see the next team. We are very short persons but we try to play with other things that other people don’t try. We are thinking match to match in the pool and the lucky loser and now the next round. We have to have dreams always, so we dream match to match.”
Taylor Pischke, Canada – “We needed to get that done in two sets. We definitely had it, we just had a little bit of a hitch in the second set and we weren’t able to recover from that so we were disappointed with that for sure.”
Jamie Broder, Canada – “I feel like we got a little sloppy with some of our touches, setting and sideouts where we pretty crisp in the first and the beginning of the second. It’s kind of those little points that come down to extra focus and we opened the door for them and they took it in the third. They’re a scrappy team, they’re going to hustle hard and we ran out of gas a little bit. I expected a little more out myself and us as a team. We definitely could have won that match and gone a little deeper in the tournament.”
