However, Augusta State seized back the momentum to end FSU’s dream. “We are all sad right now, and once this wears off we will realize what a great year we had,” FSU coach Trey Jones said. “This has been a team, a group of guys that are very special.

Lauer, of Huntington, Ind., is the only senior on FSU’s roster and was the only Seminole to win in the semifinals. He finished his FSU career by winning both of his matches in the NCAA Tournament. With four returning starters — including three All-Americans (Drew Kittleson, Brooks Koepka and freshman Michael Hebert) — the FSU men will certainly expect to be in this position again in 2011.
