Team USA defeated Team Italy in their second home matchup
Saturday night 3-1 on the back of a vintage Clay Stanley performance. Stanley did not start the first two sets of the match but subbed in as a serving specialist. He replaced
Evan Patak in the third and fourth sets and lead Team USA to victory with 4 aces and 6 kills. In addition, Stanley�s
overpowering serves generated at least a half dozen additional points on Italian overpasses and out-of system
plays reminding the crowd of 4,183 of his 2008 Olympic MVP performance...
Team Italy defeated Team USA 3-1 in World League
Men�s international volleyball tonight at the Sears Centre in Hoffman Estates, Illinois in front a crowd of 4,310 fans. After a great first set, Team USA
struggled to get their offense to side out consistently and watched helplessly as Italy strung together 2 and 3 point runs in critical points in
the next three sets. Although the team hitting percentages were close (.495 US versus .538 ITA) Team USA was out blocked 12 to 9...
The Italian Men�s Volleyball National team will be returning
to the Chicago area to play the USA Men�s National Volleyball team in the sixth round of the 2009 World League. The first match of this 2 match home series
will be held tonight at the Sears Centre in Hoffman Estates, IL. Team USA defeated Italy in both second round matches (3-1, 3-1) held in Italy in June... Men's Olympic Exhibition Match
