UCF spikers land in NCAA

ORLANDO, Fla. – Todd Dagenais is bringing his University of Central Florida volleyball team to the NCAA tournament for the second time.

The Knights defeated East Carolina here Sunday 3-0 to secure at least a tie for the American Athletic Conference title and an automatic NCAA berth. UCF holds the tie-breaker over Cincinnati for the league title. It is UCF’s second title in the past five years and its first NCAA berth since 2014.

The Knights (24-3 overall, 15-0 ACC) have won 21 straight matches under Dagenais, a native of Escanaba.
