Golden Eagles Fall to No. 4 Florida State; Weather Alters Rest of Schedule

4/17/2021 3:40:00 PM | Beach Volleyball

GULF SHORES, Ala. -- No. 4 Florida State attacked early and often for a 5-0 morning win, and persistent storms postponed Southern Miss' afternoon matchup against Tulane to Sunday, among other changes.

The Golden Eagles will now face Tulane at 8:30 a.m. Sunday, followed by No. 7 TCU at 1 p.m. The tournament finale, against a to-be-determined opponent, has an expected 3:30 start.

Kylie Grandy and Abbey Wilson saw their three-match win streak come to an end. The Seminoles earned their 15th team shutout of the year.
