Wayne State’s volleyball team remained a unanimous No. 1 in the AVCA Div. II Coaches Poll this week after winning three conference games on the road last week.
With wins at Augustana (3-1), Northern State (3-0) and MSU Moorhead (3-0), the Wildcats improve to 21-0 on the season and 11-0 in Northern Sun Conference play, keeping them one game ahead of both Minnesota Duluth and Concordia-St. Paul, both of whom have losses only to WSC on their records so far this season.
The NSIC continues its dominance of Div. II volleyball in the latest poll, holding five of the top seven spots. CSP is third, Duluth is fifth, St. Cloud State is sixth and Southwest Minnesota State is seventh.
