I hate how lazy this is. Go back and look at the start of the thread from 2014-2017. Put some actual thought and work into a preview for 2020 if you want to start the thread I apologize I hope I have fixed this.

The 2020 championship will be held in Dubuque, Iowa. It will be the first high level volleyball game played in Iowa since 1897 when Sir Edward Willis served a ball over his shoulder inventing the “over-hand” serve. Many questions will be asked and answered until the championship game is played, but it’s never to early to start. Will Springfield rebound after an incredibly disappointing 2 loss season? Will people realize that Carthage’s mascot is incredibly racist? Will AVCA poll voters spend more than 30 seconds per week creating their poll? Will Fontbonne be ranked at all or will they be ignored because their name sounds too much like a cartoon character? Will Southern Virginia redo their gym? How will Stevenson rebound after losing Landon Shorts? Will Nate Miller summon Biblical figures to help him at the Bible College? How early will Lakeland players start hyping themselves up? Will Kean, Marymount, Dominican or Juniata remember they have a competent volleyball team and make a difference next year? Will a 16 loss team make the championship? Will NYU make a serve? Will New Paltz repeat? Will Wells win another tournament game? Will Elms and Endicott be interchangeable for the entire season? Will any first year programs go above .500? Should be a fun year. Much better- thank you for adding some insight and humor to the initial post.

What are peoples thoughts about St Joe's (LI) making it back to the tourney next year considering that the skyline will not be an automatic bid for the 2020 tourney.

I think the D3VB world saw how critical it is to have a tough schedule when it comes down to the At-Large pool (tip of the cap to Carthage for being the exception). If they have the same schedule next year as they did this year, it would be nearly impossible for them to get a Pool B/C bid.

With Ramapo and NJCU going back into the Skyline, won't they keep the bid? They are back to 8 teams, unless someone else is dropping. What is the point of keeping the bid for 2 years if they take it away even if you get back above the number?

Rockford, Saint Vincent, Saint Norbert, SUNY Potsdam, King's, Millikin. Might be missing one or two, but this is what I collected from Middlehitter.com Bold Prediction: SUNY Potsdam is going to secede from the Union and officially become part of Canada. After all, anything north of the Adirondacks is basically Canada.
