BACK-TO-BACK-TO-BACK-TO-BACK CCSA CHAMPIONSFSU earned its fourth-straight CCSA title in 2019 after going 5-0 in the tournament.

Florida State is the only program in NCAA beach volleyball history to have four straight conference championships. Not only is FSU undefeated in the CCSA Tournament, the Garnet and Gold hadn’t dropped a single match to a conference opponent – or any East Coast team – from 2016 to 2018.

The Seminoles became the first team to hand USC a loss in the NCAA Championship and the first No. 4 seed to defeat a No. 1-overall seed (UCLA) in the tournament. Their wins over UCLA in the second round and Hawaii in the semifinals snapped 31- and 32- match win streaks for those teams, respectively

Entering her fifth season with the program, head coach Brooke Niles has shaped Florida State beach volleyball into one of the most elite teams in the country, establishing the Seminoles as a national contender every year and a fixture in the AVCA Beach Top-10. Niles came to FSU prior to the 2016 season, and had previously coached at the collegiate, junior college, club and high school levels working with both indoor and sand volleyball teams. In 2016, Niles led the Seminoles to unprecedented heights during the program’s first season as an official NCAA Championship sport. Her first year in Tallahassee was highlighted by a series of program firsts including a school-record for dual-match victories (32), a conference championship, the top-seed in the inaugural NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship and a national runner-up finish. Florida State hit the ground running under Niles, winning its first 14 matches, all on the road, with eight of those victories coming against ranked foes including five ranked in the top-10. One of those wins came against then-No. 2 Southern California in Los Angeles as the Seminoles snapped the Women of Troy’s 19-match home win streak. FSU went on to earn the No. 1 overall seed at the NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship after claiming the 2016 Coastal Collegiate Sports Association (CCSA) Conference title. The Seminoles finished the 2016 campaign as the national runner-up at the NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship in Gulf Shores, Ala. after posting a 3-2 record at the tournament. FSU went on to set the single-season school record for victories in a season with 32 and ranked in the Top 5 of the AVCA national poll all year. Along with their 14-match win streak, the Seminoles also put together a school-record 17-match win streak which saw Florida State outscore the opposition 71-10. At season’s end, Florida State registered 19 victories over ranked schools, while posting an 11-3 mark against teams ranked in the Top 10. In her second year under the helm Niles continued the winning tradition of Florida State beach volleyball. The team finished with the second-most wins in school history and the third most in the country (29). Niles and the Noles secured back-to-back CCSA Championships after they defeated FIU 3-0 in 34 minutes. Florida State reached their second consecutive NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship appearance and sixth straight post season appearance, tied for most of any school. The Seminoles finished the 2017 season in fourth place at the NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship in Gulf Shore, Ala. after going 2-2 at the tournament. The Noles defeated a school record 22 ranked teams during the 2017 season, including 13 wins over top-10 teams and three over top-5 teams. The 2017 season saw the Garnet and Gold defeat Pepperdine for the first time in school history as they took down the second-ranked wave in Tallahassee. Niles set the bar even higher in her third season, scheduling 13 dual matches against ranked opponents in the regular season and finishing with a program-record 33 wins. Florida State reached its third consecutive NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship appearance, and seventh-straight postseason appearance, making FSU one of only two programs to make every NCAA and AVCA National Championship (along with Pepperdine). The Seminoles went undefeated to make it to the finals of the NCAA Championship for the first time, taking down No. 1 UCLA, No. 3 Hawaii and No. 5 USC along the way. FSU fell to No. 1-overall UCLA in the finals for the team’s second NCAA Runner-Up finish under Niles. FSU tallied 14 wins against AVCA Top-20 opponents in 2018, picking up four wins against higher-ranked teams. Through her three seasons at the helm, the Seminoles have remained undefeated against every East Coast team, and have not lost to a CCSA team since joining the conference in Niles’ first year. Niles was recognized for her outstanding effort in her first season at the helm of the Seminole beach volleyball program as she was named National Coach of the Year by the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA). Niles had continued success, finishing the 2019 season with another 29 wins. The Seminoles reached their fourth consecutive NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship, and eighth-straight postseason trip, keeping the Seminoles as one of just two teams to do so (Pepperdine). Florida State also won their fourth-straight CCSA Championship Title as they dominated the competi-tion and capped it off with a 3-0 win over LSU in the championship match. Florida State earned a win in the first round of the NCAA Championship with a 3-0 win over Cal Poly, before losing their next two matches to the top two seeds, UCLA and USC.Florida State earned a program-high 21 wins over ranked opponents, picking up 12 wins over teams in the AVCA Top-10. Niles earned her first career CCSA Coach of the Year award as the Seminoles saw two more join the CCSA All-Conference team and Macy Jerger earned CCSA Scholar-athlete of the Year honors for the third straight season. Kate Privett became the third Seminole to earn CCSA Freshman of the Year honors.
