EIVA Championship Central
University Park, Pa.. - The top-ranked Penn State men's volleyball team will take on No. 11 George Mason tonight at Rec Hall at 7:00 p.m. in the EIVA title match. The winner earns an automatic berth into the NCAA National Semifinals next week in California.
The Nittany Lions improved to 54-3 all-time in the EIVA Championship with the win over NYU Thursday night in the EIVA Semifinal at Rec Hall. Penn State holds a 10-1 advantage over the Patriots in the EIVA Championship dating back to the 1986 season, but George Mason has been the only team to defeat Penn State during the 2008 season, a four-game victory in Fairfax, Va., on Feb. 15.
