Lady Bobcats beat SAC State in 5!

[Joe Bobcat]

Tremendous match tonight for the Bobcat ladies tonight!
SAC 26 27 21 25 15
MSU 28 25 25 18 17

That is one of the biggest wins of the season. SAC was positioned to clinch 1st place but will have to wait and the Cats were tied for 2nd and are now in 2nd by themselves and could end up 1st with a win and help in the final matches of the season on Saturday. At least that's the way I think it sits.

Edit to say that it appears there is a 4 way tie for first between the Cats, Sac, unc, Wsu all with a conference record of 12 - 4
Don't quote me on that.

Haven’t looked at tie breakers, but here is how it stands and could end up for the eight who are in the tourney.

SAC 12-3 vs UM
MSU 11-4 vs PSU
WEB 11-4 vs UNC
UNC 11-4 vs WEB
PSU 9-6 vs MSU
UM 7-8 vs SAC
ISU 6-9 vs NAU
EWU 5-10 vs UI

Cats could tie for 1st (3-way) with a win and a Sac loss. One of Weber and UNC will finish 12-4 and one 11-5. Cats would finish at worst tied for third. As much as it hurts, need to pull for the gris tomorrow.

Again, not taking the time to look at all the permutations and tie-breakers, we could end up playing any of EWU, UM, PSU, or ISU in the first round of the tourney. Top 4 and bottom 4 are definite.

We only played Weber once and beat them. Odd scheduling in VB, but whatever. That should give us the edge for the #2 seed if both teams finish in a tie for 2nd (Cats, Weber, and SAC win).

I'm also not sure how the tie break would go with a 3-way tie for 1st (Cats and gris win). Looks complicated. Although it seems we benefit from Weber winning in any of the possibilities. Go Weber. Go gris.

Awesome! MSU has never won the Big Sky regular season or tournament championship in volleyball, so this could be a truly historic season. MSU has beaten all of the other top 4 teams this year, so they'll definitely be confident heading into tournament play.

That was so fun to watch last night.

I went to the match at Sac, they got smoked down there. I didn’t think the Cats had a chance. Glad I was wrong.

Great match.

Thank ladies,
Thank coach

11-1 at home

I'm a casual volleyball fan but I really appreciate the way Matt describes his interactions with the team and his results. Go Cats!

On ESPN + it didn't seem like a big crowd considering we were playing #1team.
