Gulf Shores AL - The national champions hopes of Florida State were dashed today by Long Beach State. The Noles to Long Beach State - then beat College of Charleston - finally getting eliminated by Long Beach State.
At 6:00 EDT - Long Beach State will play the Pepperdine Waves for the chamnpionship. If the Waves win the first match - they are the champs - and it is all over. If Longo Bech States wins - they must again beat Pepperdine at 7 PM - winner take all.
It was a hot - sunny - breezy afternoon. There were lots of people on the beach - the majority of them were more interested in drinking and playing on the beach. The 72 degree waves kept most of the people on the sand - but a few hearty ones took the plunge.
Lulu and I will stay the night. Tomorrow - they is individual pairs competition starting at 8 AM. Many FSU girls are seeded in that along with players form many other schools like Southern California and Hawaii.
The champions event was sponsored and administered by the American Volleyball Coaches Association - AVCA. All the teams are sanctioned by the NCAA.
The Noles finished number 3 overall in thier first beach volleyball season.
