Cuba’s women volleyballers have done their country proud by winning the Abu Dhabi International Women’s Volleyball championship. They came from behind to top Holland 3-1 (23-25, 25-16, 25,20, 25-22) at the Al Jazira indoor stadium. Though Holland jumped out to the early lead, Cuba exhibited poise and style under the leadership of their coach Antonio Perdomo Estrella. Yumillka Ruiz Luaces, Yanelis Santos, Nancy Carrello, Dami Ramirez and Rachel Sanchez were all in stunning form with Stanos being titled as Best Block and Best Playmaker for the tournament. Congratulations Cuba.
