Canada's volleyball team to battle for bronze at the Pan Am Cup
Host nation falls to Argentina in semifinal, will face Cuba on Sunday
Canada will be going for back-to-back bronze medals at the Pan American Cup.
Argentina beat the Canadians in straight sets on Saturday in the tournament semifinals. Set scores were 25-23, 25-15 and 25-10.
The Canadian squad also fell to Argentina in group play earlier in the week, losing that match 3-0 as well.
"Canada usually started well, but they lack experience and make many mistakes," Argentina coach Julio Velasco said.
Argentina is unbeaten in four matches and yet to lose a set in the competition. The South American squad will play Puerto Rico.
Canada, fielding a younger team at this tournament after claiming a bronze at the FIVB World League, will play the defending champion Cubans for the bronze on Sunday.
The Canadians finished third at the 2016 Pan Am Cup.
