    Episode 266, College Volleyball Weekly, Men's Top 20, Week 13 Recap, 3/31/25

    The 13th week of the D1-2 NCAA Men's Volleyball season and it was full of upsets, incredible action, and fantastic highlights. There are no more undefeated teams and jostling for conference titles and post-season seedings are shifting on a weekly basis in some cases. Through all the chaos, the CVW Coaches' Panel shares what caught their attention around NCAA Men's D1-2 volleyball. From the upsets, five-setters to the walk-off aces, they guys break down the play and offer their take and their players of the week. Also in our discussion this week: The "Moni Effect" on and off the court and St. Francis transitioning from D1 to D3. Note: Due to the hyphenated availability of Rob we weren't able to get into it as we normally do. We'll have the "Hot Mic Moment" back next week! Thanks for listening/watching! #NCAAMVB

    Episode 265, College Volleyball Weekly Beach Top 20, Week 5 Recap 3/25/25

    The Collegiate Beach Volleyball season just surpassed the midway point and we're seeing shifts from 2-5 without a lot of big changes in the rest of the AVCA top 20. A lot of the top teams were idle in week 5, but the ones that weren't saw solid action at the Big West Challenge in San Luis Obispo, CA and East Meets West in Austin,TX.   Although teams may have split their duals this last weekend, without a doubt the teams are developing in a beneficial way as we move closer to conference tournaments. The athlete panel chats about then No. 10 Texas' upset of then-No. 2 LMU, and the quality of each their flights. In addition, we discuss the dynamism of Cal Poly and how interchangeable their entire lineup is.   From there we discuss the top teams we've seen this last weekend and even drop the names of top performers!

    College Volleyball Weekly Men's Top 20, Week 12 Recap, 3/24/25

    🚨 EPISODE DROP 🚨 College Volleyball Weekly Men's Top 20, Week 12 Recap, 3/24/25 This week our coaching panel (except Brad) were really "salty," so we start off on a grumpy note. Week 12 saw MANY 5-set battles-- particularly involving many MIVA teams honing their skills and talents to mount a surge as they continue MIVA conference play. With that we saw Theo's Matadors ride into Chicago splitting their top-20 matches with Dan's Flyers and Shane's Ramblers. As expected, we tangent away from volleyball and into Chicago Cuisine-- and the tangent only got worse. We jump into our discussions about top 20 teams in NOVA/DC, Long Beach St. and what we could be seeing as teams are gearing up for the remainder of conference play. As always, the guys pick their Players of the Week, and share what they'll be watching in Week 13. For the "Hot Mic" moment Brad starts us off on a light note, then the "salty guys" take over! Thanks for listening/watching! #ncaamvb #ncaavolleyball #ncaamvolleyball
