Can Pepperdine Men’s Volleyball Win MPSF Again?

Defending tournament champion Pepperdine shocked No.1 seed UCLA in the tournament last year. The Bruins, who beat Pepperdine in the NCAA Tournament a few days later, had gone 11-1 in the regular season but lost 3-2 to Pepperdine in the championship. 

Will UCLA Men’s Volleyball be the No.1 seed in the NCAA Tournament?

The Bruins were upset in this tournament a year ago, but still made the NCAA Tournament as an at-large team. This year the Bruins could be the NCAA Tournament favorite in Fairfax. 

Ranked No.1 in the most recent men’s volleyball poll, the UCLA Men’s Volleyball team will look to halt No. 2-ranked Hawaii’s two-year championship run. 

Hawaii is seeking to become the first men’s volleyball program to win three-straight NCAA championships since UCLA won four-straight titles from 1981-1984. 

The Bruins have won 19 championships but none since 2006. 

Men's Volleyball Rankings: How Many are at MPSF Tournament?

After UCLA, No.5 Grand Canyon is the highest-ranked team and probably the biggest threat to UCLA. BYU is No. 7 and finished second in conference play, while host Stanford is ranked No. 11. 

Pepperdine (No. 14) and USC (No. 22) are also ranked.
