A new NCAA men's volleyball champion is about to be named. The matchup is locked in, and Long Beach State and UCLA will go head-to-head for a chance at a title.
Eight programs entered the bracket. The quarterfinal and semifinal rounds saw intense play; the Beach and Bruins defeated their opponents handily, sending Fort Valley State, Belmont Abbey, Pepperdine and Hawaii home.
This is a long-awaited rematch of last year's championship, when UCLA defeated Long Beach, 3-1. Can the Bruins go back-to-back, or will the Beach avenge their loss?
Just a few sets of volleyball separate these teams and a trophy.
