FINDLAY, TIFFIN, AND NORTH CANTON, OH: It has been a bumpy road for Cavalier Volleyball over the past 2.5 weeks but a win over rival, Malone, on Tuesday night will hopefully put Walsh back on track to wrap up the regular season. Since the Midwest Regional Crossover, the Maroon and Gold lost five straight games to Tiffin, Findlay, Clarion, Hillsdale, and Northwood. In all five games, the Cavs took at least one set but could never quite get a set lead to push the momentum their way.
The Women got back in the win column on Tuesday in front of a packed gym as they hosted Malone. A 3-0 sweep of the Pioneers will propel them to the final week of the regular season when they will host Cedarville, on Friday, and Ashland, on Saturday!
The Maroon and Gold have secured their spot in the 2026 Great Midwest Athletic Conference Tournament. Seeding and quarterfinal information will not be released until Sunday, 11/8. As of now, the Cavs are in 6th place with a 13-14 overall record, 9-5 in the G-MAC.
