INDIANAPOLIS, IND. – The road to Tampa, Fla. and the 2021 National Championship begins a short drive north of Charger Gymnasium for the New Haven women's volleyball team who have clinched an at-large birth into the NCAA Tournament. The Chargers claimed the four-seed in the East Region Championships which will be held by No. 1 American International.
The Blue and Gold will take on No. 5 seed Holy Family in the first round as the Chargers make their 15th consecutive appearance in the final 64 and 35th overall, having made the East Regional every year since 2006.
