They won 14 sets in conference play during the regular season. They need to win 15 in the next 5 days to win the tournament. Georgia State was so close to going up 2-1 on Arkansas State, dropping the 3rd set 24-26. Fighting to keep their season alive here in the 4th. They took a 24-23 lead, only to have the point reversed by a successful challenge.

is the sun belt holding their tournament in like a convention center lol They've been having it in Foley, Alabama for some years now. It's one thing I've always wanted to check off my bucket list - attend a Sun Belt Conference Tournament in Foley. They don't call it the Fun Belt for nothing.

Am I reading this correctly? None of the ConferenceChampionship matches are going to be on regular TV except the Big East? With all the popularity that volleyball has demonstrated this past season, you would think that someone would be able to. convince Fox, ESPN, NBC, or CBS sports to put at least one of these games on a non streaming platform.

A little late getting that out. North Florida already won the first set against Eastern Kentucky in the first ASUN Quarterfinal.

I believe the MEAC Championship is on ESPNU. But still, I totally agree with your point.

The big money conferences don't do conference tournaments, and the conferences that do tournaments aren't really going to draw that much viewership. Plus, this time of year, there is football and men's and women's basketball (all 3 of which draw more viewership). So it doesn't really surprise me one bit. And frankly, I'd rather have matches streamed on ESPN+ than on some obscure or regional cable network (or even ESPNU for that matter)

So there are basketball games on ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU until midnight Saturday through Wednesday. Otherwise, some of the better mid-major conference championships - ASUN, MVC, MAC, MVC, etc would be good to showcase on national television.
