ot that long ago Florida State baseball fans could spend the time between innings watching students play sand volleyball on courts just on the other side of the left field fence. Well, thanks to the phenomenal popularity of beach volleyball as an Olympic sport and the success of the professional game on television, sand volleyball is coming to Florida State University as our 20th NCAA sport this spring.
