It was a prosperous spring weekend for Ohio State Athletics as the volleyball, tennis, and golf teams captured four Big Ten titles within just hours of one another. 

Women's golf brought home their third-straight Big Ten title, sharing the crown with Northwestern following this weekend's Big Ten Championships in Indianapolis. Dating back to 1982, this marks the 14th time the women's team has captured the conference title. The Hoosiers are the next closest with seven titles during that time period. 

Men's tennis took down the Illini on Saturday en route to an outright conference title. The Buckeyes became the first team in Big Ten history to not lose a single point in conference play. The Big Ten tournament is set to begin on Friday in Minneapolis. 

Not to be outdone by their male counterparts, the women's tennis squad took down the Boilermakers 4-0 capturing an outright Big Ten title of their own. The ladies finished conference play with a perfect 11-0 record. 

Men's volleyball defeated the Lewis Flyers on Saturday, capturing the MIVA Tournament Title and punching their ticket to the 2016 NCAA Tournament. The victory gave them their 20th-straight win and 28th of the season, the most since 1993. The second-ranked men haven't suffered a loss since February 6th. They are slated to face George Mason in the NCAA tournament on May 3rd. The match will take place at Penn State.
