The Ohio State men's volleyball team is looking to win its second-straight NCAA title next week, and the Buckeyes will have a chance to do it on their own court as the tournament's top seed.
The 2017 NCAA Tournament will be held at St. John Arena May 4-6 and after a dominating regular season which ended in their second-straight MIVA Championship, the Buckeyes earned the tournament's overall No. 1 seed.
As the top seed, the Buckeyes earned an opening-round bye and will play the winner of the May 2 match between No. 4-seed Hawai'i and No. 5-seed Penn State. With a win in that match, Ohio State would advance to the championship match on Saturday, May 6.
The Buckeyes are the defending NCAA champions and made history this season winning 42-consecutive matches — the longest winning-streak in the history of Ohio State athletics across all sports.
Ohio State enters the tournament with a 29-2 record, losing just to UC Irvine — which snapped the team's win streak — and Penn State during the regular season.
Tickets for the NCAA Tournament can be purchased here. Prices are $25 for adults, $15 for children and students and $8 per person for a group of 10 or more.
