The tournament started in 1989, but was played in the U18 age group until 2021 &#8211; the Americans had one gold (2019), two silver (2013 and 2015) and one bronze (2021) in the period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe thought about the fact that we had nothing to lose,\u201d American head coach Jamie Morrison said. \u201cWe knew that T\u00fcrkiye have a very nice group, and, on the other hand, we are a very young team. This entire tournament we have been getting better, overcoming difficulties. And if we hadn\u2019t done it, we wouldn\u2019t have made it to the final. These girls are one of a kind. It\u2019s an amazing group of individuals that make a great team. We had six days to train and prepare for the tournament, so we were getting better here on the go, day by day, match by match.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For T\u00fcrkiye, the silver medal is the third won in the category \u2013 the Europeans took gold in 2011 and silver in 2007, on both occasions in the U18 age group.<\/p>\n<p><em><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-113514\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-300x169.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-2048x1152.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-580x326.jpeg 580w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-860x484.jpeg 860w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-1160x653.jpeg 1160w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-500x281.jpeg 500w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-800x450.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-1280x720.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-1920x1080.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-1320x743.jpeg 1320w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2-4-600x338.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>USA&#8217;s Teraya Sigler faces the Turkish block during the gold medal match<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Star outside hitter Abigail Vander Wal was huge in the American comeback, leading her team with 19 points (15 kills, two aces, two blocks).
