Pegasus was left out of the Men’s Volleyball Challenge Cup on Saturday. The Thessaloniki side lost 1-2 to Bulgaria’s Beroe in their second match for the Balkan Cup which they host in the closed area of the region and missed the chance to compete in Sunday’s final against Arkas on Sunday, now claiming third place in the competition, staying, however, definitively out of the continuity of the European events.
The Greek team was unprepared for this particular tournament, but fought until the third set. The first set was also decisive, which Ousa lost at +4.
