GUADALAJARA, Mexico - San Diego Mojo libero Shara Venegas helped Puerto Rico place fourth at the 2025 NORCECA Women's Final Six, which completed play at the Unidad Deportiva López Mateos on Sunday.

Venegas tallied 118 digs (4.21/set), the second-best mark in the tournament, finished third among receivers with a 26.17 percent efficiency rating, and completed the tournament as the second-highest rated libero in the field.

Puerto Rico won two of five matches in the round robin portion of the competition, falling to Mexico in five sets in the opener, before earning three-set sweeps of the Dominican Republic and Canada and then falling in four sets to Cuba and three to the United States.

As the three-seed in the semifinals, Puerto Rico once again dropped a five-set match to Mexico, then lost in a five-set thriller to the Dominican Republic in the bronze medal match after holding a 2-1 lead after the third set.

Venegas and Puerto Rico finished among the top four in the NORCECA Women's Final Six for the third time in the last four years and placed fourth for the second year in a row.
