Utah Splits Day One in NOLA versus Tulane, Spring Hill College

3/21/2025 4:59 PM | Beach Volleyball

Utah Beach Volleyball moves to 13-5.

Utah Beach Volleyball ended day one of the Tulane Weekend Competition splitting the day with a 1-1 record. Utah's lineup looks different this weekend, with the absence Bella Vezzani in our No. 2 spot.

Utah started with a dominant victory over Spring Hill College (4-1). Our No. 1 pair Langley Griffin and Quincy Stephens won a three-set match, coming back after losing the first set 18-21. Kylie Pitzak and Ellyn Collins stayed hot in the No. 3 spot, winning in straight sets. Our No. 4 and No. 5 pairs also won without dropping any sets and allowed less then 16 points in each set.

Weekend host Tulane had a strong outing versus the Utes, ending the Utes three-match win-streak by beating the Utes by a score of 3-2. Kylie and Ellyn had an electric three-set victory to give Utah the early lead in the match. Chloe and Lauren also followed suit with a three-set victory to defeat the Green Wave in the No. 5 spot. In the No. 4 spot, Maeve Griffin and Sonja Wessel lost a tight duel as two of the three sets were brought to extra points.

Utah now moves to 13-5 as they look to tomorrow for a rematch against Tulane and get to take on the Javelinas of Texas A&M Kingsville.
