3 Lone Star State squads and Wittenberg moved up; LaVerne's record is deceptive, that squad's played a boat-load of ranked teams.

But only Oshkosh vs Trinity is in-region.

That looks like an excellent pre-playoff tourney for those 4 teams.

Now the debate is what schools host. Will it be Oshkosh, Whitewater or Carthage? I'm thinking Wash U gets a regional over St. Ben's and St. Thomas. The announcements are Wednesday.

Oshkosh hosted last year, and the NCAA likes to spread it around from year to year. But how can you deny the Titans this year? Juniata and Tufts also hosted last year. Doesn't seem fair to deny one and not the others. I think UWO and JC (probably Tufts as well) earned the right to host again in 2009. I don't know about the others, but Oshkosh submitted a bid to host this year.

I'll take Oshkosh, Wash U and Hope as hosts in my area, assuming they all submitted bids. Carthage or Whitewater may get bused east or west. We'll see. It all depends whether the NCAA thinks hosting is earned or hosting is rotated.

Not sure where to post this, but there's a blog page that has links to all conference tourneys in one spot. It also has the dates and the No. 1 seeds for all tourneys.

One team is already in: Pacific Lutheran. One tourney started yesterday: North Atlantic Conference.

See the link on the top-right rail. I could have linked to the page itself, but there may be other stuff of interest on the main page. If you like it, tell your friends  ;)

A certain volleyball blog (http://uwoshvball.wordpress.com/) is still around. It's not entirely terrible. There's 2010 stuff on there like "Who Loses Whom" and preseason polls.

If you've never moused to it, the blog focuses on the Central and Midwest regions but has a bunch of national entries as well, especially during tournament time.

I just went over there, too. I'm hoping it'll generate some more interest, particularly in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and West Regions.

AVCA D3 Top 25 Poll for Week 2 is now up: http://www.avca.org/divisions/division-three-women/poll-9-14-10/

Saturday features one of the games of the year as No. 1 Washington University takes on No. 2 Juniata College in Indiana.  This is a rematch of the championship game from last year.  And, a rematch of the regular season game that was the single greatest volleyball match I have ever seen.  I am a volleyball novice, but I am sure others would agree.

Washington University defeated four nationally ranked teams this last week without dropping a set.  Juniata is undefeated and always has a great schedule, so this should be one of the games of the year. 

I wish I could go.

No. 1 Washington University plays No. 2 Emory University today.  The game is online at 10:30 CST: http://www.brandeis.edu/streaming/athletics/

The Washington University Press Release has an interesting factoid on this match-up:

Washington University and Emory have combined to win the last three NCAA Division III national championships, with the defending national champion Bears winning the title in 2007 and 2009. Interestingly, the team winning the regular season match-up fell in the UAA Championship match, but still went on to win the national title in each of those years.

Interesting to note that last year's CCIW champ Carthage is ranked behind Elmhurst this season. Elmhurst was also picked to finish #1 in the conference as well.

Quick comparison of the host sites for the tournament and the AVCA ranked teams in each (ORV indicates a team outside the top 25 but that did receive votes)

Calvin - 1, 9, 10, 16, ORV
Clarkson - 22, ORV
Elmhurst - 2, 5, 11, 18, 25, ORV
Emory - 7, 12, 23
Juniata - 8, 17, 21
St. Thomas - 4, 6, 13, 15, 19, 20, ORV
Trinity - 3, 14, ORV
Williams - ORV, ORV, ORV, ORV


Looks like St. Thomas and Elmhurst have the most difficult sectionals.

Well... Week 10:

http://www.avca.org/divisions/division-three-women/poll-11-10-15/

I'm just wondering: What justification does AVCA use for "fudging" their rankings? What I mean is, only 37 of their 63 voters actually turned in a ballot this week. They ranked the teams based on those ballots, and added 26 "ghost" ballots filled in according to that ranking. The actual poll, without the ghost ballots, was:

1   Washington-St. Louis (24)   905
2   Emory (1)               861
3   Juniata (9)            860
4   Calvin (3)               827
5   Christopher Newport      765
6   Wittenberg            757
7   Claremont-Mudd-Scripps      652
8   Colorado College         627
9   Cal Lutheran            604
10   Hope               584
11   Wisconsin-Whitewater      580
12   Southwestern (Texas)      502
13   Carthage               462
14   Texas-Dallas            427
15   Wisconsin-Stevens Point      390
16   Eastern               351
17   Elmhurst               291
18   Clarkson               267
19   Wisconsin-Oshkosh         140
20   La Verne               135
21   Gustavus Adolphus         123
22   Chicago               120
23   Illinois Wesleyan         106
24   MIT                  82
25   Carnegie-Mellon         76

The actual poll was a lot closer than what they published. For example, Emory garnered only 1 more point than Juniata, not the 27 that the published poll shows. And Carnegie-Mellon barely edged out Hendrix (72) for the last spot.

I understand the reasoning, simply because Calvin made it to the finals and Juniata did not, but I probably would have put Juniata at 2 with Calvin at 3 and CMS 4. They just seemed like a much better team than Calvin between the games I watched against Eau Claire. Heck their only two losses on the season were early to defending champion Johns Hopkin and current champion Eau Claire in the semi finals. Chalk it up to bracket placement semantics I guess.

The East*West Classic this weekend will be incredible!  CMS (#1), Trinity (#2), JHU (#7), and Emory (#14).  Not seeing a video link yet.

I watched the Trinity Invitational this weekend (was at Calgaard Gym to see TU-Eau Claire in person).  Trinity didn't drop a set all tournament.  They have two incredible setters who not only get to the ball, but still manage superb placement.  Trinity's blocking game is superb, continuing that strength from last season.  I could sense that opposing teams reduced big swings in favor of finesse shots; they changed their games because of the TU blockers.

Reagan Whatley, a first year player, is a force.  Led the team in kills.  Looking forward to watching her for the next few years. 

Hard not to be optimistic about the season ahead for the Tigers.

Thanks WLCALUM83 for keeping this board up to date - I come here often to see how everyone is doing. 

I do have a question, HOPEfully you can help me out.  I see UW Oshkosh has played 28 matches, MIT and Trintiy (TX) have played 27.  Emory on the other had has played 17.  So my question is this, what's the limit (if there is one) for total matches you can play? 

I know in basketball (both men and women) you can play a maximum of 25 regular season games, plus any conference tournament games.  I assumed something similar is in place for volleyball, just not sure, and the disparity in # of matches played leads me to believe my assumption is wrong. 

According to online schedules, I see this disparity:

UW Oshkosh - 33 matches + 2 potential WIAC tourney matches = 35 total
Hope -  27 matches + 3 potential MIAA tourney matches = 30 total
Emory -  23 matches + 3 potential UAA tourney matches = 26 total

Sure seems like for the NCAA tournament selection committee, a wide spread in # of matches could be more difficult to manage and understand.

Post by: WLCALUM83 on October 26, 2023, 07:23:30 PM
In my searching, the only limit I found was for NCAA D1 which has a regular season limit of 32 matches. '22 D3 champ Juniata played 27 regular season matches and 8 post-season matches. '22 Emory played 24 regular season matches and 5 post-season matches.

What I'm wondering about the disparity you refer to regarding Emory-could it be that the Eagles play a UAA in-conference schedule which involves 3 round-robins on 3 different weekends during the regular season, thus perhaps that affects their travel considerations? (from GA to NY to MO and/or OH --at least 3 long trips if they don't host a UAA meet)

Even "out in the middle of D3 nowhere" Colorado College played 27 regular season matches and 3 post-season matches in '22.

Thanks!  I'm going to dig a little as well to see if I can find anything more,  Seems like an outlier relative to almost every other D3 sport.
