NCAA Volleyball Bracket Set With 6 Dynamic ACC Teams

Six ACC teams heard the call as the NCAA Volleyball Championship bracket was set. Louisville gets the top seed in the tournament. Pittsburgh is seeded No. 3 and Georgia Tech at No. 8. Three additional conference teams earned a spot among the 64 teams competing. Miami, North Carolina and Florida State will all have a shot at the championship on December 18.

First and second round action is scheduled for December 2-3 and 3-4. The Regionals will be on December 9 and 11. The Semifinals, December 16 and Championship, December 18 will be in Columbus at the Nationwide Arena.

To say the level of competition is a notch above this year is an understatement. There are no cake walks in the matchups created by the committee. And in volleyball, that means it’s anybody’s game…to win or lose.
