POOLE volleyball star Dan Hunter and Great Britain's volleyball men bowed out of the Olympics with a straight sets defeat to Argentina this afternoon.

Former Wessex player Hunter, the GB team's libero, impressed during the Games, particularly in the defeat to Poland, but he was powerless to prevent a fifth straight Olympic pool defeat at Earls Court yesterday.

Bournemouth's John Pearce and Sway's Dan McMillan, meanwhile, suffered a fifth defeat in the men's handball.

The duo waved goodbye to the Copper Box with a heavy 41-24 loss to Iceland.
