When will the exact dates for the sub-regionals be announced?

However - the NCAA list doesn't mention game times. I guess we'll have to wait for media releases from the host schools.

Thanks. I think I'm going.

Cal gets to host and not St. Mary's? Please take pictures if you go. Cal received a very favorable set-up. Third time the charm with UCLA? Don't I know it. I'm guessing St Mary's didn't put up a bid to host. Their facility is on the small size (3500), and they typically don't use half their seating for volleyball. Parking is not good if you're going to have 1000+ visitors and public transportation is not a viable option. It's also a really sucky drive to Moraga in rush hour traffic. Once you get past the Caldecott Tunnel, it's a windy 8-mile drive to the SMC campus. Cal doesn't have great parking options either, but it's a short walk from public transportation, and there are plenty of quality accomodations in Berkeley, Oakland, and/or Emeryville. I'm guessing the lack of lodging options is why SMC isn't hosting. Also - some of these seeds are just funky. Missouri, Wisconsin, and UCLA are seeded AND hosting? |

I'm starting to think of it a little more, and none of the teams would be staying overnight anyways, unless Sac State and Pacific decide that they'd rather avoid the 90-minute bus ride on the day of the game. I still stand by my comments about the St Mary's gym and their basic transportation issues.
