Oooh. This is juicy. How did they determine that? Talk about a gift for Mexico. There is no way Mexico loses to Costa Rica/Trinidad. That means, Mexico needs to win just one match to qualify for the World Championships, and it will be against one of the USA/Canada/Puerto Rico grouping in the Semifinals. I would think Dominican Republic is the favorite to win this event. Mexico will avoid them in the semifinals no matter what (which is the match that matters). USA could potentially not make the semifinals. Mexico said “We’re hosting 😌” lol. They had Bricio speak and she mentioned it’s the beginning of their ultimate goal of qualifying for Paris. Side note, Parra (Texas) is considering going pro after this season. Mexico is in need of a solid OH to complement Bricio, so it gets interesting. I agree that this is DR’s to take, and now I’m really looking forward to watching Pool B play out. I think Parra is. I read on the Texas thread she posted about last year or one more year |

I thought Matt Ulmer said Ronika Stone was going to be with the US team during his Duck Insider interview yesterday. Maybe he was referring to something other than NORCECA.

Like what are the required qualifications… i wouldn't be shocked if NORCECA didn't have a marketing staff lol they can hire me tho let me hit up Cristobal Marte for ya.. He's been annoying in Dominican press lately .. still moaning about DR's performance in Tokyo. Yes, so miserable knocking out host Japan and losing to the eventual Gold Medalist who throat punched everyone in the knockouts.. what a disappointing result for a "powerhouse"?... oh wait... they're not. |
