Originally posted by The Mad Hatter View PostIt is kind of annoying that the NCAA doesn't use consistent terminology, since in baseball it is regionals and super-regionals, while in volleyball it is sub-regionals and regionals.

Originally posted by JayJ79 View PostVolleyball terminology in this regard is the same as the (more well known) basketball terminology. So that makes baseball the outlier. Of course, the baseball postseason is an entirely different format, since it isn't single-elimination."Cotton scared me - I left him alone." - B4MSU (Bear Nation poster) in reference to heckling players

We're talking about the NCAA here. Not exactly the group to look to when it comes to making sense of anything that they do.Infinity Art Glass - Fantastic local artist and Shocker fan
RIP Guy Always A Shocker
Carpenter Place - A blessing to many young girls/women
ICT S.O.S - Great local cause fighting against human trafficking
Wartick Insurance Agency - Saved me money with more coverage.
Save Shocker Sports - A rallying cry

Actually I don't think the sub-regional is even used by the NCAA. I think they are referred to as the 1st and 2nd rounds by the NCAA.
Subregional is just an easier common sense way to report it. Most fans will also refer to the regionals as the Sweet 16 and Quarterfinals as the Elite 8, and the Semi-Finals as the Final Four.

#3 Texas 3 - #6 USC 0 (19,22,14) Pretty impressive win for the Lady Longhorns
#1 Penn State 3 - #8 Minnesota 1
#5 Oregon 3 - #4 Nebraska 1
Michigan 3 - #2 Stanford
The unseeded Wolverines crash the party. After losing the 1st set 20-25, they roared back to sweep the #2 seeded Cardinal out of the tournament 20, 20, 20.
Penn State takes on Oregon and Nebraska takes on Michigan in the semi-finals. Would love to see an Oregon-Michigan final.Last edited by 1972Shocker; December 9, 2012, 01:17 PM.
