STOCKTON - There’s a new tournament in town, and the Pacific volleyball team is hoping to do a bit more than just host.
The Tigers will welcome the first round of the National Invitational Volleyball Championships this week, a postseason tournament revived this year after a six-season run from 1989-1995. The bracket consists of 32 teams, with eight hosts for the opening round.
Pacific is one of those hosts, after earning an automatic berth in the event. The Tigers will start play in the single-elimination event at 7 p.m. today against Boise State, ahead of a 4:30 p.
