Beach Eagles look to continue their momentum into the Second OVC Weekend of the Season
Beach Eagles look to continue their momentum into the Second OVC Weekend of the Season
MOREHEAD, Ky. – Morehead State's Beach Volleyball team will be heading to Clarksville, Tenn., to compete in a four-match outing. They will face Eastern Illinois and UT Martin on Friday. On Saturday, they will face Chattanooga and Austin Peay. This is a big week for the Eagles, as their performance will likely dictate their seeding in the OVC Tournament - which MSU will host next weekend.

The Eagles will be first competing against Eastern Illinois (0-4) at 1:30 p.m. ET. With the previous 4-1 victory over the Panthers, MSU looks to complete the sweep. Set to play at 5:30 p.m. on Friday, the Eagles will face a challenge against top seed UT Martin (4-0). Saturday does not get much easier, with the first match starting at 9:30 a.m. against Chattanooga (2-2), and the finishing the OVC weekend against host Austin Peay (3-1) at 1:30 p.m.

The Eagles will be looking to continue the success from the last outing against the Louisville, hoping that success will fuel a comeback mentality as the Eagles dropped their first matches against Chattanooga, UT Martin, and Austin Peay earlier in the season.
