Posted Nov 04, 2020 1:30 PM

Good news for volleyball fans across Nebraska, you will still get your NCAA fix this spring during the national tournament. 

The NCAA Volleyball Final Four will remain in Omaha after being rescheduled for the spring due to COVID 19. The new dates are April 22 and 24. 

Its unknown if the decision has anything to do with the fact that weekend was open at the CHI Health Center but once NCAA officials made the decision to hold the final four that weekend they went full speed ahead with keeping the event in Omaha. 

T.J. Meagher the chairman of the NCAA Division I volleyball committee had this to say: "Omaha had earned the right to be the host city for the championship, and it's always been a great ambassador for the sport. There's wonderful support from the community. It's very special in Omaha."

The tournament was to be played in December before the decision to move fall sports to the spring. 

NCAA Volleyball matches are slated to begin Jan 22.
