The RVC Volleyball team took third place at the NJCAA national tournament for the second straight season under second year head coach Abby Jenkins. The #4 seeded Golden Eagles knocked off #3 Northland on Saturday afternoon in four games, 26-24, 25-18, 13-25, 25-19. RVC advanced to the third place match after defeating #5 Niagra in the opening round on Friday afternoon and then falling short in their semi-final match against #1 Ridgewater.
RVC took third last season as well. In their previous trips to the national tournament, the Golden Eagles finished fifth in 2007, second in 2004, and won national titles in 1996 and 1997.
