Looks like CUSA champs Rice will be the only team representing the conference this year in the NCAA Tournament. With our RPI at 131, we have no chance...looks like its another pay to play NIT tournament for our team again this year! Hopefully someday we will get to play in the real post season tournament!

Bummer.  Do you see improvement?  We should be really good at this sport with all the local talent.

There will be improvement. What hurt this team this year was injuries and youth. When Teakell went down in September, they lost most if not all of the games that she was out. Once she came back, they started to win, but they were still without Ibarra (I hope I spelled her name correctly) for the whole season. Then York and Williams were the only Seniors.

This team is young and headed in the right direction.  They got an invite to the NIVC and will be hosting rounds one and two.  Pack to Volleyball Court!  Is there an official name for the facility?

I will try to make it to Denton Thursday night. Really unfortunate how the ladies went out in 2017 to those stalling, two-timin', floor-wiping TCU Horned Frogs.

Noticed TCU and Texas Tech declined to play this year, infact looks like we’re the only Texas team to accept the invite. #60 WKU declined as well along with the rest of the conference but the biggest tournament hit was very few Power 5 schools.. only two.

Clemson, Iowa State and Georgia Tech are in along with UNLV, Tulsa (we beat), Tulane, USF and some other fairly known school's.  We complained about the CBI last year and look what it did for our Men's Basketball program.

Our Conference champs Rice who we lost to in the semi final 3-1 just lost to Texas State 3-1 in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Was really hoping Rice was going to make a run...get some respect for our conference, maybe get two teams in next year! Not a good look for CUSA VB getting drilled by Texas State!
