ATLANTA, GA. - The Central Arkansas Beach Volleyball Team had two players named to the Second Team All-ASUN and one player named to the ASUN All-Academic Team. The Bears travel to Huntsville, Alabama for the ASUN Championships this weekend.

Carol Barbosa and Faith Hasness have been a strong pair from the No.1 Flight all season for the Purple and Gray. The Graduate student and Senior played together in all 28 matches this season for the Bears, with a record of 18-10 record, including a victory over Southern Mississippi. The pair was also ranked 19th best pair in the country in late March.

Kelsie Sager was named to the ASUN All-Academic Team after holding a 4.00 GPA while earning his MBA in Finance. Sager has operated from the No.2 & 3 Flights all season.

"It is always an honor to be recognized in the conference, and Carol, Faith, and Kelsie are beyond deserving. In the past it has been uncommon to rely on your 1s pair for wins because they typically play the most difficult teams. But we have a ton of confidence in them, and that's always a good feeling when you start the second flight of games," said Head Coach Autumn Erickson.

The Bears take the courts on Friday, April 22nd for their ASUN opening match against Jacksonville. All matches will be streamed on ESPN+.
