SEATTLE, Wash. – The Boise State beach volleyball team completed its opening weekend of the fall season at the Alki Pairs Tournament, Sunday. Each of the six Bronco pairs that competed finished 1-1 during bracket play.
Both Bronco pairs competing in the Gold Division (Rorianna Chartier/Sierra Land and Madison Nichols/Lily Patock) won its opening matches against separate Oregon pairs before falling in the semifinals.
In the Silver Division, two Bronco pairs (Anika Christensen/Elli Wolthuis and Ava Anderson/Kaylee Mejia) won in the opening round before falling in the quarterfinals.
Quotables
"A lot of us learned a lot about how to manage the day. We started early and I think a lot of us started slow, but throughout the match we continued to get better. We found ways to win even if it wasn't the best play we've had. All in all we played really well, we learned a lot and played against great competition, which at the end of the day is what we were looking for." – head coach Allison Voigt
"This week in practice we're going to focus on the pace of the game. How do we play the speed that we want to play at as a partnership? We want to emphasize that and not react to what the other team is doing." - Voigt
"We're so excited to be able to show off beach volleyball in Boise. Our girls have been training extremely hard and are proud of what they've been doing. I want them to have the opportunity to show off in front of the community and represent the school well." - Voigt
What's Next
The Broncos will host the Boise State Pairs Classic next week. The two-day event will begin Friday, Oct. 16 at 9 a.m. at the Boise State Beach Volleyball Complex.
