CV Haris Stuns League Leaders Avarca Menorca to Reach Iberdrola League Semifinals

CV Haris has pulled off a major upset in the Iberdrola League quarterfinals, defying the odds to knock out league leaders Avarca Menorca in a swift 2-0 series victory. This win not only changes the outlook for the Tenerife club’s season but also guarantees their return to European competition next year, marking a significant milestone for the team.

The team’s success under coach Ricardo Lemos was on full display during the second match against Menorca. After falling behind by two sets, the players showed impressive mental toughness to mount a comeback. Alli Cudworth, who joined the squad late last year after playing in Greece, credited the team’s progress to a strong locker room culture and the coaching staff’s belief in the players.

Now, CV Haris moves on to the semifinals, where they will face Gran Canaria’s Heidelberg Volkswagen. This regional derby, which kicks off in Tenerife on April 11, offers a spot in the final. Having already eliminated the top-ranked team, CV Haris is now focused on proving they belong among the nation’s elite and keeping their historic season alive.
