Former AVP player Daven Allison and partner Will Harris defeated Steve Byrd and Jen Corral in the final match of the 5th Annual Lime and the Coconut Invitational last weekend at East Beach.
Allison, a two time winner of the event, and Harris defeated Shane Cervantes and Santa Barbara Volleyball Club coach K.C. Collins in the crossover semifinals to advance to the last match of the day.
Defending champion Jeff Rydberg lost in the semifinal to Steve Byrd and Jen Corral after defeating Santa Barbara High alum Chris Gugliano in the quarterfinals.
The 2009 Lime and the Coconut hosted 80 players in the round robin, single elimination tournament. The event has become a fixture at East Beach and has established itself as one of the most popular co-ed tournaments in the area.
