The Pitt Panthers volleyball team began the season ranked and their climb continued this week.
The team started at No. 20 in the preseason poll before rising to No. 14 the following week. After that, they rose another spot to No. 13 and this week, the team finds itself at No. 9 in the nation.
The jump came after another perfect weekend that saw the team knock off Kennesaw State, Dayton, and, most impressively, No. 12 Washington. I wrote on Twitter over the weekend that, based on who lost in the polls ahead of them, Pitt could get to No.
