Hawaii played without a libero last season really? I could've sworn they had one when they played Nebraska they had injuries that put Okino into the line up but started the season with out one

The only team to do that. (Could be argued we got an easy draw then too.) That Nebraska team was the last major college team to play without a Libero. UW had a good one in Candace Lee. Nebraska came back and won it all in 2006, with a Libero. Hawaii played without a libero last season Okay, but Nebraska did it in the Championship.

The only team to do that. Sort of. Texas had all sweeps back in the day (I can't be bothered to look up the exact year), but it was when they needed five rounds to win rather than six. (Same as all the surviving teams this year, actually.) Okay, the only team to do it in a 64-team tournament.

Those are horribly depressing numbers for the elite eight. EDIT: In comparison, in 2019 the softball NCAA world series (the final eight teams) averaged 1.1 million viewers over 15 games. I cannot fathom how people would rather watch softball.

I dont have a minute to make a real comparison but volleyball in the fall has way more competition for TV than softball does in the summer? Spring?

But these are numbers for volleyball in the spring. oh I’m not saying they’re not bad. But I think there’s a few reasons for that. I was mostly referring to why softball might be a lot higher than volleyball
