Beach volleyball: Walsh and May-Treanor win

Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor are back together again.

The Olympians won their fourth AVP title of the season today with a 21-14, 21-11 victory over Annett Davis and Jenny Johnson Jordan, in their first tournament since Walsh suffered a setback following shoulder surgery.

In the men's final, Phil Dalhasser and Todd Rogers defeated John Hyden and Brad Keenan 22-20, 17-21, 15-13 to earn their fifth victory in five tournaments in the 2008 season.

Earlier in the day, Dalhasser and Rogers, who will also represent the United States at the Beijing Olympics in August, took down third-seeded Nick Lucena and Sean Scott 24-22, 21-12 to earn a berth in the championship match.

Walsh and May-Treanor defeated the No. 8-seeded team of Katie and Tracy Lindquist 21-9, 21-15 to reach the finals.
