We got to talking about volleyball attendance last night. If you could pick one start time from this list to watch a match in person, which would you choose?
I’m curious how much it varies by market. What works best for you? 🏐
The debate is heating up. If South Dakota wins both matches this week, are the Coyotes in the NCAA Tournament regardless of what happens in Brookings?
BumpSet currently gives USD a 56% chance to win the Summit League tournament and a 77% chance to land an NCAA at-large bid.
Make it five for Sylvie Zgonc! The two-time Summit League Player of the Year earned her fifth Peak Performer award of the season for the Jackrabbits.
Congrats also to Kansas City’s Chloe Kaminski, the Defensive Peak Performer of the Week and the Summit’s leader in digs per set. 🏐

@GrindersWinDT@Tommievball Chipped in for @Tommievball today. Good luck to Ella and the Tommies in the postseason! 🏐
And Coach, that Gopher hoops win at Cincy last night took a little sting out of that Vikings game. Thanks!🏀

#ReachTheSummit x #SummitVB
NDSU averaged 769 fans in 2026. 🏐
SDSU & UND drew standing-room-only crowds. Let’s play those at Scheels. Rivals matter.
11 a.m. Saturday starts help team travel, but fans I talked to weren’t sold.
MN’s MEA break brought out high school volleyball players for SDSU. Maximizing the ability for high school volleyball players to attend is big.
Kiyoat’s latest Summit League Power Poll is up on VolleyTalk. The rankings hold steady this week. Good stuff as always! 🏐
Kiyoat’s picks this week:
Coyotes over Bison in 4
Jacks over Bison in 5
Mavs over KC in 5
St. Thomas over KC in 4
Volleyball is the best spectator sport around. 🏐
It’s missing from this chart, but a University of Memphis study of D-I women’s matches found that a new rally started about every 26 seconds on average.
This is a MAJOR problem in sports!
For how long the games are...so little of it is actual "game play".
Definitely creating an opportunity for new leagues (and showing the need for alternative ways to monetize beyond just media rights & ads).
8 matches left. Who gets the first-round byes?
I break down the final week, the tiebreakers and what could change the bracket. 🏐
Summit League Volleyball | Final Week Preview & Projected Tournament Bra... https://t.co/IrhPy0VEja via @YouTube
Looks like Summit League Volleyball Tournament tickets go on sale Tuesday. Based on this week’s projections, there’s a 95% chance the tournament opens with St. Thomas vs. Kansas City, followed by Omaha vs. North Dakota State unless things get crazy this week.
A packed house of 1,188 at the BBF watched NDSU sweep rival UND for its third straight Summit League win. The Bison are now 7-5 in league play.
Lauren Jansen made a strong case for Peak Performer honors with 16 kills on .333 hitting, 4 aces and 4 digs.
These senior letters are some of my favorite videos NDSU puts out every year. It’s hard not to get a little emotional hearing the players tell their stories in their own words.
To the seniors wrapping up their careers, thank you. Best wishes for whatever comes next.
