In the Atlantic Sun Match of the Week, Florida Atlantic University's volleyball team claimed its second consecutive Atlantic Sun Conference title with a 3-0 win over Jacksonville. The Owls controlled the match by holding JU to a .190 hitting percentage as the Dolphins suffered their first conference loss of the year and had its 16-match winning streak in A-Sun play snapped.

So far, five teams including FAU have clinched a berth in the tournament. Belmont, Jacksonville, and Lipscomb have all posted at least five league wins. ETSU has three. Only one spot remains up for grabs. Mercer, Stetson and Campbell are vying for the final spot that will take them to Nashville.

The A-Sun Volleyball Championship will be hosted by Belmont on Nov. 18-19.
