Seminoles Fall at Virginia
10/4/2024 8:27:00 PM | Women's Volleyball
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. - The No. 16 Florida State volleyball team (10-3, 2-1) suffered its firs conference loss of the season on Friday against Virginia (12-2, 2-1) in three sets (22-25, 21-25, 22-25) in Charlottesville, Virginia.
The two teams played a back-and-forth first set, but the Seminoles were not able to find much rhythm on offense as they committed eight attack and service errors to allow the Cavaliers to hang around. Virginia took advantage and were able to put the Seminoles away with a 25-22 win in the first set.
Virginia used a quick spurt in the middle of the second set to pull away from the Noles at 20-16, and FSU was unable to mount a comeback as they fell 25-21.
FSU jumped out to a quick lead in set three, but Virginia responded with a 6-1 run to take a 14-10 lead. The Cavaliers kept the Noles at distance and led the set 24-19. FSU rallied and scored three consecutive points to cut the lead to two, but a service error ended the match.
FSU was unable to find any rhythm on offense the majority of the night as they hit just .174. Audrey Koenig led the way with 10 kills while Iane Henke was a nice bright spot with nine kills on 19 attempts. Koenig has now recorded 10 or more kills in her last 10 matches.
FSU will return to action on Sunday at Virginia Tech. First serve is set for 1 p.m. and can be seen live on ACCNX.
