There is a little-known NCAA bylaw that requires at least 8 Big 10 teams must make the tourney each year. This year 9 are in.

Carlston and co., having gone 5-7 down the stretch, are hosting at St. Johns. Meanwhile, Ohio is sent to Provo...

Trivia: 4 Ohio schools are in the tourney, good showing for our state.

More trivia: We are the cradle of coaches, as the last 3 Bobcat volleyball coaches--Carlston, Theiss and Webb--are are in the tourney.

Tough draw indeed but you never know. Good luck to the bobcats this weekend.

Unfortunately, this is an absolutely awful draw. BYU is 50-1 at home since 2011. Should we be able to beat them, Arizona more than likely awaits in the second round, and they are very good as well. Western Kentucky also had a great season and knocked off Wisconsin.

Names on other teams to look out for:

Alexa Gray, BYU-their all-time leader in kills and multiple time All-American
Amy Boswell, BYU-efficient MB and IMO, the best blocker in the nation
Penina Snuuka, ARIZ-super dynamic and athletic setter
Kalei Mau, ARIZ- one of the best players in the PAC-12
Jessica Lucas, WKU-conference setter of the year, distributes a very balanced offense
Noelle Langenkamp, WKU-Cincinnati product who is an extremely efficient MB

An interview with BYU head coach, Ohio talked about towards the end.

BYUTV is available pretty much anywhere and you can watch it online or on a phone as well.

Very impressive production. Makes the MAC stuff look like access TV.
