Victorian Institute of Sport beach volleyball player Damien Schumann has enjoyed a fantastic undefeated run at the Commonwealth Games with Australian teammate Chris McHugh.
LATEST REPORT
Under the hot Gold Coast sun, Australia’s Chris McHugh and Damien Schumann were looking to continue the Aussie men and women teams’ unbeaten start to these first ever Commonwealth Games for Beach Volleyball.
St Kitts and Nevis were the opponents but put up little resistance as McHugh and Schumann blitzed their way through to a 16-0 first set lead. There was a huge roar from the crowd when the likeable and smiling pair from St Kitts and Nevis finally got on the scoreboard to make it 16-1. The Aussies closed out the first set 21-3.
The second set had more for the St Kitts boys to smile about and brought the crowd right into it as they dug deep and bagged some great points. In the end, the Aussies had too much class for their second win of the tournament 21-3, 21-11.
