Paola Hibs’ historic foray in international volleyball came to an end yesterday when they went down to Baku away 25-9, 25-14, 25-12.

The Maltese champions had gone down a week before to the strong Azerbaijan outfit 25-6, 25-7, 25-10 at Corradino.

In the first leg, Hibs had Gertrude Zarb limping badly due to injury but she recovered in Baku to give a valid contribution to her club.
