Pitt volleyball climbs in rankings to No. 4 after split with Penn State

The Pitt volleyball team lost its first match of the season this weekend, falling to then No. 4 Penn State in a close battle. But their dominant win over the Nittany Lions on Friday was enough to move them up in the polls over Penn State.

Pitt (11-1) held on to its lone No. 1 vote and moved up to No. 4 overall in the polls. Currently, they sit behind No. 1 Stanford (6-2), No. 2 Baylor (9-0), and No. 3 Nebraska (8-1).

Penn State (7-2), meanwhile, dropped to fifth. Here’s the complete poll.

Pitt moving ahead of Penn State, of course, was the right move.
