17th October, 2010. The second day of the Fresh Off the Boat, IMT Dubai’s annual sporting tournament, ended with the highly anticipated Seniors Vs. Juniors Volleyball Finals.
As the floodlights lit up, the player’s entered the field all geared up for the game. It was expected to be a close match as both the juniors & seniors were experienced players, all geared up for the game. Despite, the lateness of the hour, a huge crowd turned up, hollering their support for their respective teams .The game started out with a good note for the seniors scoring their first point. The juniors chased them right till the end, but, were unfortunately unable to hold onto the game as the seniors won the game by a close, nail biting 20-19.
The juniors were able to gain a little momentum going early in the second set as they scored their first point, but, couldn’t keep up the intensity up and soon tumbled. The score card showed a staggering 13-6 before the time out session. The time out didn’t help them much as, by then, the juniors had lost most of their energy. The game ended with the seniors winning the set and the game with a score of 20-10.
The crowd applauded their sportsmanship and the commendable performance that the two teams showed. It was a thorough entertainment right till the end.
Team METH...!!
