TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - The Florida State volleyball team will host its annual Garnet and Gold match on Friday, Aug. 19 at 6 p.m. inside Tully Gym. Admission will be free and the doors will open at 5 p.m. The Seminoles are coming off a 20-10 season in 2021 where they picked up their first win in the NCAA Tournament since 2016. Head Coach Chris Poole is entering his 15th season as the leader of the Seminole. Poole boasts a 326-105 (.756) record and has led the Seminoles to the NCAA Tournament in 12 of the past 13 years.
