Fayetteville State repeats as CIAA volleyball champions

FAYETTEVILLE, North Carolina --  The Fayetteville State volleyball team faced more adversity than last year's team.

Still, the result after the CIAA tournament Saturday was the same - a victory in the championship game.

The Broncos became the first team to repeat as CIAA Tournament champions since 2010, defeating the Winston-Salem State Rams in four sets.

Fayetteville State (19-7) dispatched Chowan, the last school to win consecutive titles, in three sets during the semifinals Saturday morning, and then held off Winston-Salem State 25-23, 26-28, 25-16 and 25-22.

Fayetteville State coach Reeshemah Johnson said the victory was something she predicted while the team dealt with adjustments early after last season's Broncos went undefeated in conference play.
