Dominican Republic U20 Team

The Dominican Republic enter the U20 FIVB
Women’s World Championship as defending champions after an epic victory achieved
two years ago in Puerto Rico winning five-set matches in their last couple of
outings.

The Dominicans, who had won a silver medal back
in 2009 finally attained the much anticipated gold coming back from two match
points to defeat favorites Brazil 3-2 (17-25, 25-21, 25-17, 24-26, 16-14)
behind the 32-point performance by towering Brayelin Martinez. One day earlier
they edged Italy with 27 points by the same Martinez.

The Queens of the Caribbean qualified to this
year’s world championship by winning the 2016 NORCECA Continental Championship
held in Fort Lauderdale, Florida with a 3-1 victory over hosts United States.

The Dominican program continues to send new
talent through its pipeline to bolster the rosters of its teams so it is like
money in the bank they will present a competitive squad this time around.
