Undefeated Hawaii moved up a spot to third in Monday’s AVCA Division I-II Men’s Volleyball Top 15.

The Rainbow Warriors (6-0) received one first-place vote and are tied with defending national champion Ohio State (3-2, 1 first-place vote). The Buckeyes, who lost to UCLA in five on Saturday, had been alone at No. 3 the past two weeks.

Remaining at No. 1 was Long Beach State (7-0, 23 votes), while the Bruins (7-0, 1 vote) stayed at No. 2.

Hawaii hosts UCLA in nonconference matches Friday at 7 p.m. and Sunday at 5 p.m. at the Stan Sheriff Center. The Warriors are coming off a bye week, while the Bruins won the AVCA Showcase with a 3-1 win over then-No. 9 Penn State and the five-setter against Ohio State.

UCLA holds a 63-29 lead in the series with Hawaii. The Warriors are 9-4 since 2013, including two four-set wins last year in Los Angeles.
