Key Results
How the 2023 Championship Was Decided
The edition is best understood through the knockout bracket rather than a league-style standings table. UCLA survived the elimination path and converted the final against Hawaii 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 2023 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 EagleBank Arena, Fairfax, Virginia. The edition-specific date and field information on this page is kept separate from later NCAA bracket expansions.
