To reflect the increase of teams in Division II men’s volleyball recently, this year, Off the Block has increased the amount of teams listed in the Division II Coaches Poll to ten teams.

No. 1 Lewis, who has been regularly at the top of the poll since its inception, starts the 2021 season atop the poll, garnering all ten first place votes. Lewis is off to a 3-0 start in part due to contributions from senior middle attacker, Tyler Mitchem, who was named MIVA Defensive Player of the Week on Monday. In his first match of the season, Mitchem recorded a double-double, with 11 kills and 10 blocks.

In his first start at outside attacker, Spencer Wickens had a career night with 23 kills on a .541 attack percentage. Wickens was one of three Pepperdine players with a double-double (Dyer, Akinwumi). The Waves started four freshmen in the season opening match, including Bryce Dvorak at setter. Pepperdine outserved Concordia-Irvine, 11 aces to 1, while outdigging them, 65 to 48. The Eagles kept the match close on the strength of their block; they outblocked the Waves, eight to four. Individually, Concordia-Irvine was paced by their senior pin hitters – opposite Raymond Barsemian had a team-high 21 kills, while outside attacker Jordan Hoppe had 13 kills on 41 error-less attempts. Concordia-Irvine won the first and third games, while Pepperdine answered back to win the second and fourth games. The Waves took a 13-4 lead in the fifth and decisive game, and took the match on a walk off ace by Joe Karlous off the bench. There is a short turnaround for both teams as the rematch is on Wednesday night in Irvine. Check out the match highlights as recorded by associate editor, Jonathan Bates
