Key Results
How the 2022 Championship Was Decided
The edition is best understood through the knockout bracket rather than a league-style standings table. Hawaii survived the elimination path and converted the final against Long Beach State into the season’s national championship.
Because NCAA volleyball championships are single-elimination events, VolleyBond records the decisive result and bracket context instead of inventing a complete ranked placement table for teams eliminated in the same round.
Format, Field & Host
The 2022 championship used a Seven-team bracket with opening rounds, semifinals and final. The field contained 7 teams, and every loss ended a team’s national-title run.
The championship stage was hosted at Pauley Pavilion, Los Angeles, California. The edition-specific date and field information on this page is kept separate from later NCAA bracket expansions.
