Volleyball Falls to FGCU

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - UNF volleyball (2-6, 1-1 ASUN) couldn't complete the two-match sweep as the visiting FGCU Eagles (3-1, 1-1 ASUN) took Monday's match, 3-0. 

FGCU 3, UNF 0 (13-25, 15-25, 14-25)

Inside the Sets
  • Set 1: Gabby O'Connell had a hot start, hitting .556 for five kills, but FGCU's .481 hitting percentage overshadowed UNF in the opening session. 
  • Set 2: UNF kept things close until an FGCU 10-3 run vaulted the Eagles in front … FGCU's Aja Jones had six kills and three blocks to the Ospreys' zero in the frame.
  • Set 3: The Ospreys combined for four blocks, but FGCU's five aces and seven Cortney VanLiew kills were too much.

Wright's Words
"I felt like FGCU made the necessary adjustments defensively and offensively today. They did a better job than us at the service line and we were a step behind defensively. We've had a great week of volleyball and we're competing at a high level. We'll rest up a bit and then focus on where we need to improve the most."

Up Next
UNF's upcoming schedule is to be announced pending scheduling adjustments within the conference.
