Former giants Tunisia settle for fifth at volleyball meet

Fifth position is what Tunisia managed, probably their worst position in a long time as they defeated Morocco 3-1 (25-16, 25-21, 21-25, 25-21).

Mauritius also won their first game at the championship beating Botswana 3-1 (17-25, 25-21, 25-19, 25-21) in the other classification match to claim seventh position.

After Botswana took the lead 25-17, Mauritius came back aggressively as their spiker Nathalie Letendre fought with Joanita Latour to come claim the second 25-21. That motivated them and continued with the same rhythm in the third and fourth sets which they clinched 25-19 and 25-21.
