    United East Men's Volleyball to Begin 2025 Season

     

    LATHAM, N.Y. - The United East is set to begin the 2025 men's volleyball season this weekend.  Nine programs will compete for six postseason berths in the 2025 United East Men's Volleyball Championships that begin on Saturday, April 5.

    Last season, Lancaster Bible College took home the first United East men's volleyball championship as the Chargers were the first United East program to compete in the NCAA Division III Men's Volleyball Tournament.

    This season, Gallaudet University begins varsity play as the Bison return to the court after an 11-year hiatus from participating in men's volleyball.  Additionally, Neumann University joins the league as an associate, joining fellow Atlantic East Conference member Pratt Institute to bring the United East's sport sponsorship up to nine programs in 2025.

    All programs will play each other once with the top-six teams earning an entry to the United East Championship in April.  

    Any ties will be broken using the United East Tiebreaking Procedures and, once the six seeds are determined, the tournament will commence as a single-elimination tournament.  Tiebreakers and a tournament outline can be found at the 2025 United East Men's Volleyball Championship homepage.

    Read below for a preview of all nine teams.
