It looks like Volleyball was not the only sport with problems at Lewis. Men's and Women's track and Field plus Baseball are also included in the self sanctions.
Looks like the school needs to replace someone in the department that verifies eligibility more than a couple of coaches.
Hope the program recovers quickly.

They have already replaced those that looked the other way. The AD had quit after they won the title. The compliance is also new (I think). Otherwise, Lewis would not have reported itself.

Well, it's kinda nice to know that they weren't just beating up on volleyball!
Can you say incompetent AD!

I feel kind of bad for the Lewis guys. Because their athletic administration was so incompetent and provided no support in any way, they are getting dumped on. I'm sure all the other weak a_ _ MIVA teams are going to just LOVE having a chance to win the MIVA now with Lewis out of the running. This is exactly what all the NOTHING programs like Ball State, IPFW, Ohio State, Loyola and Quincy have been waiting for. Get Lewis out of the picture and maybe someone else can win something. Sad things is, none of those other teams will ever be able to do anything on the National scale like Lewis did. The MIVA's days of having a team that can SERIOUSLY compete with the likes of UCLA, Pepperdine, Long Beach, BYU, and other MPSF teams are OVER! Feel bad for the Lewis guys, but they got their championship and another Final Four to boot. Keep your heads up guys, it all comes down to jealousy and politics. You weren't suppose to win it all! But you did, so enjoy the memories. Nobody can take those away from you. I enjoyed watching you guys over the years.
