Hawai'i Wins 2026 Men's NCAA National Championship, Dallas Pulse Takes MLV Title

5/13/20261 hr 24 min

It was a big weekend for volleyball! MLV finished up their third season, and Dallas Pulse took the title in a win over the Omaha Supernovas. On the NCAA men's side, it was an all-Big West final with Hawai'i taking down UC Irvine in 4.

It might not have been the most exciting volleyball we have seen recently, but we love a final, and there is only one more league left to finish up before international season starts!
