Volleyball loses in straight-sets to FAU

The Charlotte 49ers volleyball team lost in straight-sets to the Florida Atlantic Owls (25-17, 25-20, 25-19) Sunday afternoon, coming home to a rude awakenng in just their second game back from their monthlong road trip.

“We’ve run across some pretty tough Conference USA opponents early on and we’ve really showed some grit,” said Charlotte’s coach Karen Weatherington. “We’re glad to have some of the production we have and our kids are working hard. We’re going to keep battling.”

The 49ers (6-12, 0-4 C-USA) dropped the first set behind a dominant performance from the visiting Owls, jumping out to a 14-10 lead.
