Penn State Men’s Volleyball Drops Down To No. 20 In Latest AVCA Poll

Penn State menβs volleyball has dropped down one spot to No. 20 in the latest AVCA Poll, released Monday afternoon.
This came after the Nittany Lions split a two-game road series against NJIT as they got swept on Friday but responded by winning in four sets the next day. Despite the drop, Penn State has been featured in the AVCA for 88 straight weeks.
Penn State is the second highest-ranked team from the EIVA Conference in the poll, as NJIT checked into the poll at No. 19 after being unranked last week.
Also, Penn Stateβs Ryan Merk was named EIVAβs Defensive Player of the Week after tallying 2.14 digs per set and going a perfect 36-36 on serve receive during the two-game series against NJIT. He had 11 digs as well during Saturday’s win.
The Nittany Lions will return to Rec Hall this Friday when they take on Merrimack at 7 p.m. as part of their Carnival Night.
