UCLA and Long Beach State met tonight for the NCAA Men’s Volleyball National Championship. The Final Four was made up of blue-blood programs in the sport, along with Pepperdine and Hawai’i.

But one year ago, Grand Canyon University (GCU) crashed the party of the traditional powerhouses, coming within five points of playing for an NCAA title.

Less than a year later, the university shut down the program without notice, leaving many still yearning for answers.

“Pretty unfortunate,” said senior Karter Rogers. “Something that nobody was really expecting.”

“We want to know why it was our program, why we didn’t hear about it sooner, why they [the GCU administration] aren’t doing anything to help us,” said junior setter and Valley native Jaxon Herr. “It’s been two weeks since we found out, and we haven’t heard a single thing. We had a program. One day we came in for five minutes and we found out we don’t have one.”

It was April 28, and the Lopes recently lost in the MPSF tournament to end their season. Players were called into an optional meeting that 15 of the 21 attended. They thought it was for an update on the search for a new head coach. Come to find out, their coaching staff was told five minutes prior, and subsequently held out of the players meeting that notified them the program was being shuttered after 17 years. At the same time, an Instagram post went out to the masses announcing the news.

“I was sitting in the meeting FaceTiming one of our other players, and I had about 40 different text messages from guys in our group chat, my parents, other people asking me, ‘what the heck just happened?’ And I don’t even know myself,” said Herr.

Ten incoming players found out on social media they no longer had a place to play, and there aren’t many landing spots elsewhere. The statement pointed out that men’s volleyball is sponsored by only 27 of more than 360 Division I universities, and none in the Mountain West Conference.

But there weren’t any in the WAC, either. In fact, men’s soccer, men’s swimming and diving and women’s beach volleyball also aren’t offered in the Mountain West. Swim and dive will continue in the Big West, women’s beach volleyball in the MPSF — just as the men’s volleyball team was planning on. The former programs with a fraction of the national prominence of the latter.

The statement saying, in a rapidly evolving college athletics landscape, the move will allow GCU to support its remaining 20 athletic programs.

“We have all these intangibles within our culture that has allowed us to progress. Adding in the whole dynamic of now NIL, the House settlement, we’re in a great position because we have such a great, stable financial model,” Vice President of Athletics Jamie Boggs said on the Big Mountain Podcast back in December. “Enrollment is strong, and there is a correlation between the health of the university and the health of athletics.”

The House settlement removes scholarship limits but reduces the number of players that can be rostered. Men’s volleyball had trimmed from 24 to 23 to 21 over the last three years. They only had 4.5 scholarships, with most guys paying their own way at GCU.

“Is there any amount of money of we can raise? Is there anything else we can do to help solve this problem that, apparently, we have with our program as to why it’s being cut,” Herr wondered had they been informed sooner.

In July 2020, Stanford announced plans to cut 11 non-revenue Olympic sports, including men’s volleyball, but had given those programs one year’s notice. Met with swift backlash, Stanford reversed that decision less than a year later.

In 2024, the program became the first in GCU history to be ranked number one nationally in any sport. And while volleyball is the fastest growing male team sport in the country, GCU was uniquely positioned as the lone Division I program in a state that has become a hotbed for volleyball talent.

“Obviously, I like beating them, but we want them to stay. It’s bad for the sport of volleyball, and Arizona volleyball as a whole,” said UCLA outside hitter Cooper Robinson. “Those kids grow up and they look up to the GCU program because it’s the best in their state.”

“It’s sad, because I remember being a 14-year-old kid and I had all these GCU guys coming in helping me with practice. Like you very much look up to these guys,” said Herr, who won a 6A State Championship at Sandra Day O’Connor High School alongside Hawai’i freshman Finn Kearney and UCLA star Zach Rama.

A Change.org petition to save the GCU men’s volleyball program has already gotten nearly 23,000 signatures.

More than 1,800 miles away in Columbus, Ohio — the site of the NCAA men’s volleyball championships — fans and opposing teams wore ‘Save GCU MVB’ shirts, and other programs used their press conferences to speak out about GCU.

“Just surprising,” said UCLA head coach John Hawks. “It’s the most successful program in the department, and the growth of men’s volleyball across the country is astronomical. I think it’s surprising that they would do it, and I think it’s short-sighted.”

“Just sad, because you put in a lot of work and time building something,” said Rogers, who spent five years at GCU. “Just to see it taken away is kind of unfortunate.”

We requested comment from GCU Athletic Director Jamie Boggs, but a university spokesman said she wouldn’t be doing any interviews or providing any additional statements.

‘Proud and saddened’: UCLA men’s volleyball loses NCAA title to Long Beach State

COLUMBUS, Ohio – The month of May became synonymous with UCLA magic the past two years. 

Spring of 2023 and 2024 were painted blue and gold, as the Bruins stood atop collegiate men’s volleyball and returned to Westwood with national hardware.

And after the Bruins extinguished the Beach’s championship hopes last year at their home gym, it seemed only right for the favor to be returned, albeit on neutral ground. 

No. 1 seed Long Beach State (30–3, 8-2 Big West) swept No. 3 seed UCLA men’s volleyball (22-7, 10-2 MPSF) in the NCAA tournament final Monday night at the Covelli Center. The Beach’s steamroll marked their first championship since 2019 – simultaneously burying the Bruins’ bid for a historic three-peat, which could have been their first since 1983.

“It’s the stuff we have expected since day one,” Hawks said. “I’m trying to think of the bright side of it, the growth that we have had … and I’m just grateful, and proud and saddened for these guys, and that’s really where my heart is, with these guys and these seniors.” 

Despite entering the national finals ranking second nationally with a .369 hitting percentage, the Bruins’ own misfires wrote their downfall in Ohio. UCLA finished with 15 attack errors in the match, with 10 unraveling in a costly second set – a stanza that slipped through the Bruins’ fingers after a 18-13 cushion. 

At the tail end of the second frame, costly blunders – two attack errors from junior outside hitter Zach Rama and a service error each from senior outside hitter/opposite Ido David and Rama – cracked the door open for the Beach as the Bruins watched a golden opportunity vanish.

The errors allowed Long Beach back into a set – one that was the Bruins’ to lose  – with a two-ace service run from AVCA Player and Newcomer of the Year setter Moni Nikolov. 

The errors didn’t stop at the attacking realm either, as the Bruins racked up two blocking errors and 18 service errors. After committing 16 blunders from the line and six laser aces in their sweep of the Rainbow Warriors in the semifinal, the Bruins somehow yielded a worse ace-to-error ratio, with just three aces Monday.

Across the net, Nikolov – who broke Long Beach’s single-season service ace record in his freshman season – single-handedly outshone UCLA’s service attack, tallying four aces to tilt the match in his team’s favor. Heightened pressure sunk the Bruins’ reception game, as redshirt junior libero Matthew Aziz and sophomore outside hitter Luca Curci – both of whom serve as the team’s backline defensive specialists – combined for just three digs.

Two of UCLA’s AVCA All-American offensive threats in Rama and junior middle blocker Cameron Thorne strung together sub-.150 hitting percentages while All-MPSF Honorable Mention and freshman outside hitter Sean Kelly could muster up just three kills – and as many attacking errors – after pacing the team with 13 kills Saturday in the semifinal. 

Despite the lack of production from the Bruins’ offensive stalwarts, MPSF Player of the Year and AVCA First Team All-American Cooper Robinson led the way with 10 kills on a .381 clip, bearing the team’s weight in the dying embers of the match.

“UCLA has 21 championships for a reason. There’s a formula that we have and it works, and there’s a reason why we are here every year,” Robinson said. “This year, we had new leadership, and it was pretty difficult at first, but the guys really took control and began to become great leaders towards the end.”

Orchestrating the team’s attack, junior setter Andrew Rowan finished with his lowest assist total since March 15. 

The three-time AVCA First Team All-American built off Robinson, adding that prevailing through adversity helped the team grow most.

“There’s a point in time where you’re not practicing the best or the team culture of the court isn’t the greatest, and I think the way we overcame that, and that was the biggest lesson as a leader and a player,” Rowan said.

TROY, N.Y. – Liberty League commissioner Tracy King has announced that 1,226 spring sport student-athletes have qualified for the league’s All-Academic Teams in their respective sports, marking highest total for the spring season in the league’s 30-year history. The mark surpasses the previous high of 1,123 set last spring (2024). It also marked the fifth consecutive year that more than 1,000 spring sport student-athletes have qualified for the All-Academic Teams.

“The fact that we saw an increase of more than 100 student-athletes qualifying for our all-academic teams is remarkable,” said King. “Our student-athletes are incredibly well-rounded individuals, excelling in the classroom and on the playing field while also engaging with their local communities. The academic achievement of our student-athletes has always been a great source of pride for our member institutions. I applaud our students for their outstanding work in the classroom.”

To be recognized as a member of the All-Academic Team a student-athlete must be a sophomore or higher in class standing with a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.30. The spring championship sports include baseball, men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s lacrosse, men’s and women’s rowing, softball, men’s and women’s tennis, and men’s and women’s track and field.

For the 2024-25 academic year, 756 fall sport student-athletes and 410 winter sport student-athletes also qualified for Liberty League All-Academic Teams.
