PARIS — No five-setter this time.
No, the USA men late on Friday night won the first two sets against a remarkably scrappy Japan team, lost the third, but closed it out in four to finish 3-0 in Pool C.
It positions the Americans as well as they could have hoped for — a top three seed — heading into the Paris Olympics men’s volleyball quarterfinals that begin Monday.
The USA’s 25-16, 25-18, 18-25, 25-19 victory was not a total loss for Japan, either.
