PCAC Has 5 Teams On State Women's Volleyball Top 25 #6
This week's State Women's Volleyball Top 25 features five teams from the Pacific Coast Athletic Conference, topped by #2 and South Region power San Diego Mesa.
While the Olympians lead the PCAC standings at 5-0, the conference has other potential playoff contenders in #16 San Diego Miramar, #18 Palomar, new #21 Grossmont, and #22 MiraCosta.
The five teams collectively have a Ruthian .714 win percentage (55-22 combined overall record).
After the wild week of Sept. 22-28, this past week produced little change as the top 14 spots on the rankings remained unchanged.
Feather River continued its stranglehold on the #1 spot.
Long Beach City jumped four slots to #15, while #19 Saddleback, Grossmont, and #24 Sacramento City each joined the rankings this week.
The South Region occupies 15 of the first 22 spots.
