Conquistadors head to postseason play with 3-1 win over FMU

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (Nov. 4, 2024) — Florida National (19-3) ended the regular season on a high note, honoring seven seniors and defeating the Florida Memorial University Lions (1-22) 3-1 on the road. FNU's Layla Cortez and Kitula Amaya Morales combined for 30 kills in the victory.

Veterans Layla Cortez, Taylor Purdy, Gabriela Gonzalez, Elis Cordova-Millet, Sofia Moreno Bendala, Juliana Santos and Brianna Grabowski were all recognized for their contributions to the FNU volleyball program before the first serve. 

FNU stands at 10-5 against Florida Memorial all time and this is the second in as many contests. Florida National used a stellar offensive and defensive performance to bring home its 19th and final win of the regular season. In the first set, FNU commanded a 25-16 win after posting 16 kills. Senior outside hitter Cortez had three kills in the frame while Moreno Bendala also had three before FNU took a 1-0 lead. 

FNU continued to dominate in the second with a 25-14 win to take a two-set advantage. Cortez continued to impress with seven kills and a service ace from setter Emily Robello ended the frame. Despite a close set three where FNU fell 25-23, a strong comeback in the fourth closed out the match for the Conquistadors.

Up Next: FNU heads to the USCAA National Tournament with the first day of poll play beginning Nov 7 at noon.
