Pretty cool to see for UTEP. I can't see how this doesn't have anything but a positive effect for their program. It already has. That was a program-record crowd for them! I guarantee there were some people in that crowd who had never watched live volleyball before, and had a good experience. That's how it worked for USD in 2019. We had a program-best 2400+ attendance for the NIVC final, and the average home attendance has been growing ever since. Program-best average this year.

What is the capacity of Pitt’s smaller arena? 4100 or something like that Only 2,879 today (I'm sure that's a sellout).

3 voters predicted Wichita State would win, and 0 predicted UTEP. Let's see how it plays out. These two teams have not played each other in nearly 25 years. UTEP has weapons, but they will need to slow the WSU middles, who are very effective. Stats link updated on 2nd post.

Early on, I predicted Drake-Wichita could be the championship match despite being played in round 3. What I did NOT predict was UTEP getting raucous sell out crowds. I think the 7th man pushes UTEP over the top. Miners in 5!

Can the Shocker back row handle the tough serving of the Miners? Therein lies the tale.

I'm not a huge Tom Crean fan, but this time I agree.
