Penn State Volleyball Heads to Kansas to Kick off Their Highly Anticipated NCAA Season Against Yale

This Year’s NCAA Tournament is already taking unexpected turns. While half of the volleyball teams were given NCAA Berth through automatic qualification, the screening committee gave another criterion for selecting the other half of the teams. Nearly 32 teams were automatically qualified to compete in the championships. Soon after these qualifications end, volleyball spectators anticipate the first round of the NCAA Tournament. 

Notably, the SEC is leading all the conferences with the help of its eight teams, followed by seven programs, including Big 10 and Big 12, each earning five representatives. On the first day of the event, team Penn State will be competing with the opponent Yale’s volleyball team on the Kansas Turf tomorrow.

The 7 times NCAA Champions are on board and looking forward to reaching their destination, Horejsi Arena Lawrence, Kansas. Being seven times NCAA Volleyball Champions, Penn State is among the most anticipated teams at the tournament. As per the recent tweet by Penn State Women’s Volleyball, it was captioned as, “Kansas bound  It’s tourney time!“

Even though no predictions can be made about the winning team among the two, all the teams competing in the tournament will get a single chance to either break it or make it. Among Penn State vs. Yale, only one team will get the chance to perform at the next level, while the defeated team will be disqualified from performing ahead. However, Penn State is one of many teams competing on Day 1.
