Benue Queens beat Kada Emeralds 3-0 to record her first win in the female category of the on-going Nigeria Volleyball Premier League in Abuja.
Benue Queens won Kada Emeralds by 25-19, 25-19, 25-13 in an entertaining match. Both teams paraded the youngest players in the league played at the Indoor sports hall of the Abuja National Stadium, Package B.
Benue lost to NSCDC, Nigeria Customs and Nigeria Army by 3-0 in their first, second and third matches respectively.
The head coach of Benue Queens, Anthony Torbunde attributed the shaky start of his team to loss of concentration from the players, but insists his team played very well.
“It has not been easy for Benue Queens. If you watched the matches we lost, they were against teams who have players in the senior national team. Most of them have also participated at either African championships or Africa club championships”.
He further said, “We will take the remaining matches seriously, we have started and will avoid dropping points by his grace. The loss to the Nigeria Army was very painful, but I am happy the girls beat Kada Emeralds”.
