MONTGOMERY, Ala. | The Florida A&M volleyball team (22-6, 14-2) concluded its regular-season schedule with several accolades and accomplishments: its first 20-win season since 2006, 18 sweeps, a nine-game winning streak (currently the longest active stretch in the Southwestern Athletic Conference), and a 3-2 victory over Alabama State (Nov. 14).
 
The latest success also saw Dominique Washington ascend FAMU's records list, where she currently possesses the sixth most kills in single-season history (459). The offense ran through Washington and Jasmine Robinson Sunday afternoon, as the two contributed 28 and 13 kills, respectively. 
 
Florida A&M claimed the opening set by a score of 25-22 before trading the following three, 20-25, 25-10, and 27-29. Neither team was willing to let the other cruise to victory -- the last two sets required extra points -- and there were 25 ties in the fourth and fifth alone. 
 
In fact, FAMU trailed 11-8 in the final frame before embarking on a ferocious 4-0 run. Each team led by as many as two points until Washington and Irem Ucar connected for set point and an ASU attacking error secured the win. 
 
The SWAC Tournament runs Nov. 19 - 21 and will be hosted by Alabama A&M. Be sure to visit FAMUAthletics.com in the coming days for additional information on opponents and start times.
