Deacons Score Key Win Over Foundation

Saturday, May 24, 2025 – KFC Deacons won a crucial match against leaders WOW Foundation on Saturday night to keep their hopes alive of repeating as the Barbados Volleyball Association’s men’s division two champions.

Playing in front of a massive and supportive crowd for both teams, Deacons led by the wiry Corey Webster inflicted the first defeat on Foundation 25-16, 25-27, 25-27, 25-22, 15-7. Nicholas Russell-Griffith also played a key role in Deacons staying alive after being down 1-2 in sets.

With key player Jabarry Goodridge sitting out the game nursing an injury, Foundation’s Rashawn Alleyne carried the attack for FU. Still, too many simple errors by Alleyne and his teammates also hurt Foundation.
