BOCA RATON, Fla. – The No. 12 Florida Atlantic beach volleyball team travels to the Lone Star State to compete in the TCU Invitational on Friday, Mar. 7 and Saturday, March 8. The Sandy Owls will face a trio of top 20 opponents, including No. 4 TCU, No. 7 Florida State, and No. 13 Texas, as well as Boise State.
The Sandy Owls enter this weekend's tournament with a 7-1 overall record, following a 3-1 weekend in Miami that saw the team earn victories over Utah, Palm Beach Atlantic, and Southern Miss. FAU's first loss of the season was a 3-2 decision to host No. 17 FIU.
