TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- The 2015 Pan American Games Women’s Volleyball competition is down the final rounds of play, and two of the talented performers in the pre-Olympic competition have ties to the FAMU Women’s Volleyball program – middle Ginna Lopez and libero Susan Egoavil for the Peruvian National team.
Thursday, both players played a key role in Peru’s 3-2 win over Canada in the seventh place game in the Games.
Lopez, a 6-3 junior honor student in FAMU’s School of Business and Industry, is a two-time All-Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference selection, and a preseason 2015 All-MEAC pick, scored 11 points, with five (5) kills and six (6) blocks in Thursday’s victory, including a critical kill in the fifth set that put Peru ahead, 14-13.

FAMU head coach Tony Trifonov was elated over the performances of the two players. “We are so proud to have those kids representing their countries on the world stage, and representing FAMU at the same time.
