Part 4/5 of Olympic Events: Women's Volleyball

Towards the end of my program, I was able to attend Women's Volleyball...and I happen to be lucky enough to see the USA Women's team play Turkey. The event was held at Earl's Court, which lies relatively close to the city center but on the west side. Overall, the game was only competitive for the first game, but USA went on to blow out Turkey the last two games to get the sweep. It being my first event where I could see a USA Team sport, it was somewhat refreshing to hold up my American flag with the rest of the stadium chanting along with me. Below are pictures of the event, including some from the second match of the night which was Brazil. These games were only preliminary round games as in the end USA lost to Brazil in the finals this past weekend. 

Cheers!
