We had heard this was coming. I wonder if the signing of six recruits with four seniors is indicating that some will be assigned to this sport. Not sure how that works. I also wonder if this opens up the opportunity to add another volleyball coach. You know, like one that is moving to Nacogdoches.

Women's volleyball is allowed 12 scholarships. It is a headcount sport, meaning 12 girls get a scholarship. Beach volleyball allows six scholarships and is not a headcount sport. So, there could be 12 girls sharing those six scholarships.

Perfect.

Current beach volleyball programs in the SLC are (I think), ACU, UCA, HBU, UNO, and A&M-Corpus.

I think this could be a good sport for the university. I'm assuming this is a spring sport?

Lanana Creek Beach. And if you can play there, you can play anywhere.

I am very curious to see where they plan on playing their home games. The Rec center sand courts would need a major overhaul to host legit collegiate sand volleyball, at least from what i remember from my days

It will go in the grass area between Shelton/HPE complex and the education annex/tennis courts. 6o-90 day project to be done this Spring.

Beach volleyball Ontario, Canada. Had to let that rattle around a bit. Still a bit bemused.

As long as we are on that subject, Ivey believes they will break ground around May 1. Having an experienced beach volleyball guy in Luna on board has allowed him to do some tweaking to the plans that he knows are appropriate. Not a long construction timeline of course.

Yep, from a cold, landlocked region kind of cracked me up too.

A little tough for our beach volleyball facilities to compare to this location.

You know what they say. If you can win on Lanana Beach, you can win anywhere!

I'm assuming that you meant to say Laguna Beach, right?

Nothing wrong with a little beach volleyball on the Lumberjack Riviera.

Obviously not on the new courts since they are not constructed yet.

Where are the new courts going?
