Fall championship for NCAA Division I volleyball postponed
A packed house of 17,000 fans watched the championship match of the NCAA volleyball tournament on Dec. 19, 2015, in Omaha. Nebraska beat Texas in three sets.Omaha’s chance to be the site of the biggest week of the year in volleyball in the United States will have to wait.
As expected, the NCAA Tournament for Division I volleyball won’t happen this fall, the NCAA announced Thursday afternoon. The Final Four was scheduled to return to Omaha on Dec. 17-19.
This outcome was expected for a few days. On Tuesday, the Big Ten Conference postponed the season, and with each day, the number of conferences who wouldn’t be playing volleyball in the fall kept mounting.
