NEW ORLEANS, La. – The Southeastern Louisiana University beach volleyball team dropped a tough 3-2 decision against host New Orleans Friday afternoon at Privateer Beach.

SLU (0-7, 0-1 SLC) fell short on the road to open day one of the Pontchartrain Beach Bash against its first Southland Conference opponent, New Orleans (4-5, 2-0 SLC). The Lady Lions gained early momentum in the match as Court 4 secured a dominant 21-11, 21-16 victory over the Privateers in an effort to set the tone of the contest. 

Pair two for the green and gold dropped its first set against New Orleans, but rallied back in the second set to extend the match and force a third set, 21-14. The hosts turned the tide of momentum back in their favor as they claimed the win with a 15-10 edge.

Pair five also stepped up for Southeastern with a solid 21-14, 21-16 victory over New Orleans, but the hosts continued to battle to tie the match at 2-2 in a three-set win on Court three. SLU suffered a tough loss on Court one as the Privateers gained a 21-17, 21-18 victory to remain undefeated in conference play.

The Lady Lions will return to the sand Saturday morning at 9 a.m. against conference rival McNeese as the matchup was rescheduled due to a weather delay.
