WashU was able to beat Saint Benedict 3-0, but then fell 3-1 to No. 17 University of Wisconsin–Platteville the following day. The Bears’ season ended in the second round for the third season in a row, with a 29-7 record.

The No. 11 WashU volleyball team dominated the opening day of the University Athletic Association (UAA) Championship on Friday, Nov. 15, defeating New York University and No. 16 Case Western Reserve University in single-elimination matchups. These victories propelled the Bears into Saturday’s championship game against No. 6 Emory University, where they fell 3-0.

The regular season has officially come to a close for the No. 11 WashU women’s volleyball team. Following a 26-5 season, the Bears are ranked as the third seed in the upcoming UAA championship tournament.

The Bears swept both opponents in competitive fixtures, with each match lasting five sets. The match against UChicago featured a comeback after being down two sets to one, and against Carnegie Mellon, they held on after taking an early lead. With the wins, the Bears finish UAA play 5-2 and will enter the conference tournament as the third seed.

Playing at home, and making their return to the WashU Field House after a pipe burst forced the team to play matches on the Sumers Recreation Center and Varsity Gym courts, the Bears were able to flip the script, defeating Brandeis University and No. 23 New York University on Sunday, Oct. 13, both in four sets.

The Bears, however, couldn’t keep their win streak alive, falling by tight margins to Emory and Case Western before bouncing back to defeat Rochester 3-0.

There’s only one way to properly describe the No. 9 Washington University volleyball team: on fire. The Bears walked into the weekend with an eight-game win streak, and left with their undefeated streak extended to eleven.

It was a week to remember for the No. 14 Washington University volleyball team as they went 5-0, improving to an eight-game win streak and a 9-2 overall record.

In their first game of the season against Coe’s Kohawks, on Aug. 30, the Bears came up on top in a five-set thriller. However, the day following the win, they lost to Hope in five sets and fell 0-3 against Northwestern.

A burst pipe in the Athletic Complex has caused women’s volleyball to move their games from their normal home in the Field House to the Sumers Recreation Center.
