DELAND, Fla. – No. 4 Coastal Carolina fell 3-2 in a close match to No. 3 Florida Gulf Coast Friday afternoon. The loss was the second of the tournament for Coastal and eliminated the Chanticleers from the 2019 ASUN Beach Volleyball Championship.
The match began just prior to 1 p.m., but faced a lengthy weather delay after FGCU claimed a 2-1 lead. Play did not resume until just after 5 p.m., when FGCU won one of the final two points up for grabs to seal the match.
FGCU opened the match's scoring with a 21-18, 21-18 win at No. 3. Coastal responded with a 21-16, 21-17 win by Anett Nemeth and Kalin Eske at No. 5 to tie the match.
At No. 1, FGCU's pairing of Amanda Carroll and Kirstine Garder defeated Sydney Alvis and Leah Hardeman in three sets just before the match was halted due to weather.
When play resumed, Coastal tied the match up at No. 4 with Aleksandra Djuric and Shelby Ladewig prevailing in three sets, 11-21, 21-19, 15-11.
The match was decided at No. 2, where Katherine Puisis and Karissa Rhoades pulled out a 21-6, 21-14 win over Lucy Campbell and Anaiah Boyer.
