November 13 – Volleyball vs. Presbyterian – L, 3-1
The pressure of senior day may have been too much for the volleyball team as they also honored a large group (5) of seniors before the game as they tried to make it 2-0 against PC for the Bucs on Saturday. CSU earned a victory in set two, tying the match, but could not get over the hump in the final two sets. They will enter the 2010 Big South Championship as the sixth seed, facing Asheville in the first round.
