   HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIF. – The LSU Beach Volleyball team finished the MPSF conference tournament 2-2 beating (10) San Jose State and (9) Oregon, but eventually fell to No.11 (6) GCU in the elimination match on day two of the tournament.
   “It’s not the way we wanted the tournament to end, but I am proud of how our team fought all week,” said head coach Russell Brock. “To come up just short in that last match was tough. This has been a season where we have been improving so much all season long and just ran out of time down the stretch.”

   The Sandy Tigs started the morning off with a 3-0 sweep against (9) Oregon. Skylar Martin and Tatum Finlason got things started for the Tigers by dominating on Court 2; 21-10 and 21-14, while Julia Sprecher and Kenzey McGatlin followed suit on Court 1; 21-11 and 21-17. With LSU only needing one more point to secure the dual, Bella Lagemann and Zayna Meyer won in straight sets on Court 4; 21-17 and 21-18.

   Later in the morning, LSU battled it out against the No.11 (6) GCU Lopes, but fell 1-3, eliminating the Tigers from the MPSF conference tournament. Martin and Finlason got things started early for the Tigers on Court 2; 23-21 and 21-15, while Emily Hellmuth and Kate Baker fell in straight sets on Court 5; 19-21 and 17-21. Meyer and Lagemann fell on Court 4 to give GCU their second point; 14-21 and 17-21, while Molly LaBreche and Aubrey O’Gorman fell in close sets on Court 3; 19-21 and 19-21.

“Really impressed with how we came out and played today,” said head coach Russell Brock. “There were plenty of challenges and distractions and we absolutely stood up and overcame them.  We’ve been playing really well, but not really been able to get over the hump in our big matchups. That changed today. I don’t ever feel like we aren’t the best team in the sand and today our team played with that mentality. Really proud of the response to a tough first day. It’s always incredible to play at home and this weekend was no different. Best beach volleyball facility in the world!”

The first wave of matches started with a point secured by Emily Hellmuth and Kate Baker on Court 5; 21-19 and 26-24, while Ryan Lambert and Zayna Meyer gained another Tiger point on Court 4; 20-22, 21-14 and 15-12. The second wave of matches started with Aubrey O’Gorman and Camryn Chatellier having to mediacally forfeit Court 3 during the second set after going up 1-0; 21-19, 7-10. Julia Sprecher and Kenzey McGatlin got things done in straight sets on Court 1 to secure the dual for the Sandy Tigs; 21-18 and 21-16, while Tatum Finlason and Skylar Martin gave the Tigers their fourth and final point on Court 2; 22-20 and 21-12.

   To finish out the weekend, the Sandy Tigs upset No. 10 Arizona State in an absolute battle, winning 3-2. Hellmuth and Baker got things started for LSU with a straight set win on Court 5; 21-18 and 21-12, while Bella Lagemann and Meyer put the Tigers up 2-0 in the dual on Court 4; 21-18 and 21-18. The second wave of matches started with Lambert and O’Gorman falling on Court 3 to give the Sundevils their first point of the match; 18-21 and 17-21, while Sprecher and McGatlin also fell in straight sets on Court 1; 14-21 and 19-21.
