Saturday's 2 p.m. match against Central Arkansas will be UAB's senior recognition for SalliAnne Napolitano and Annie Pringle. Napolitano enters the weekend tied for eighth in career wins at UAB with 42, while Pringle owns the most court three victories in school history.
Fan Information:
Due to COVID-19, the tournament this weekend is pass list only and there are no walk-ups allowed. Fans on the pass list will be asked to wear a designated wrist band for the specific match they are watching, and are asked to clear the courts following the match before re-entering.
Fans are allowed to bring their own food, drinks and lawn chairs. There will be no bleacher seating so bringing a chair is the only way to sit. Alcohol is not permitted at the UAB beach volleyball courts.
