AUGUSTA, Ga. – The Augusta University volleyball team is ranked second in the most recent NCAA Southeast Region Rankings that were released on Wednesday afternoon by the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA).

Augusta will play its final two regular-season matches at home against Young Harris on Saturday Nov. 5. If Augusta wins those two matches, Jaguar women's volleyball will garner the PBC regular season title for the first time in history. Two wins on Saturdays also guarantees Augusta as the host for the PBC Tournament Nov. 10-12.  The women's volleyball program is the defending tournament champion and looks to capture its fifth consecutive tournament title.

The Jaguars will also celebrate 2022 Senior Day on Saturday Nov. 5 during the PBC double-header in Christenberry Fieldhouse.
