Canadian side takes match in 5 sets for 4th straight win
Canada edged Germany in five sets on Saturday for its fourth straight win in FIVB volleyball Nations League action.
Canada needed more than 2 1/2 hours to beat the Germans, taking the match: 23-25, 29-27, 25-18, 23-25, 15-12 at TD Place.
Sharone Vernon-Evans led the Canadians with 24 points and Nicholas Hoag contributed 18.
"We figured the match would be close. Germany is a strong team, they have big middle blockers so it's difficult to spike against them," said Canadian coach Glenn Hoag. "We stuck with it, we had a bad couple first sets but it was a really good team win so we're happy."
Canada is aiming for five straight wins on Sunday against Serbia.
