@PennStateMVBALL: The #PSUVMB season comes to a close in the NCAA national semis as the Lions come up short in a 3-1 (20-25,25-22,16-25,20-25) loss to Lewis.

Agreed, especially when you consider how they started the season. Still, it is disappointing when a small school like Lewis is better than PSU. (I know Lewis has been there before in men's volleyball.)
Lewis vs. Loyola of Chicago in the finals. Two small Chicago Catholic schools having at it.
With Lewis being the No. 1 seed, it was no surprise. Three things you likely did not know about Lewis. They are located in Romeoville, Illinois. They won the men's 2003 Volleyball Championship but later voluntarily gave back the title after an internal investigation found ineligibility issues that were kept from the NCAA. Finally, their nickname is the Flyers, but the official name of their mascot is Bedcheck Charlie. (pictured below).
Yes, it is my understanding that Division I and II compete together and total less than 50 teams.
You may be right on that, but I know that Division I and II both compete for the National Championship because neither Division alone has enough teams. Division III has their own tournament.

TRUE.....but Lewis was playing without Clark!
