Walsh Jennings, Ross fall to Brazilians in World Series final

Kerri Walsh Jennings and April Ross did well to make the Asics World Series of Beach Volleyball final, but their fortune ran out against the best team in the world over the last year.

Brazil’s Larissa and Talita swept the three-time Olympic champion Walsh Jennings and 2012 Olympic silver medalist Ross 21-18, 21-16 in Long Beach, Calif., on Sunday.

Walsh Jennings was playing on the FIVB World Tour for the first time since dislocating her right shoulder in a match for the second time in two months July 10.
