TCU’s Beach Volleyball team earned its first national ranking in just their third season of play, debuting at #13 in the AVCA Coaches Poll back on April 24th after a strong showing at the Staybridge Suites Invitational in Tallahassee, FL. The AVCA ranks the top 15 teams every week out of 54 Division 1 beach programs (that number has already grown from 47 Division 1 programs in 2015).
TCU finished the season winning 11 out of their last 13 matches, including wins over 10th-ranked Florida International, 14th-ranked Florida Atlantic, and Georgia Southern- ranked #9 at the time. Their only two losses during that span were to teams that would end up finishing the season ranked #3 and #4 in the country: Hawaii and Florida State.
