No. 1 Hawaii will enter its men’s volleyball series at Stanford as the unanimous pick atop the NVA/AVCA Men’s National Collegiate Poll and the Big West now owns the top two spots.

The Rainbow Warriors (7-0) received all 22 first-place votes in the poll for the second time this season when the ranking was released on Monday. UCLA (9-1) had drawn a first-place vote the previous two weeks, but dropped to No. 4 following Saturday’s loss at Penn State (8-1), which rose a spot to No. 3. Long Beach State (6-0) replaced UCLA at No. 2.

Grand Canyon (10-0) made the biggest move of the week, jumping four spots to No. 5. Hawaii, Long Beach State, Grand Canyon, Charleston (8-0) and Benedict (1-0) are the only undefeated teams remaining in NCAA Division I-II men’s volleyball.

UH had a bye week following its three-match road trip to North Carolina and will head back on the road to take on No. 8 Stanford on Friday and Saturday in Palo Alto, Calif. The Cardinal (7-2) lost to No. 15 Cal State Northridge in five sets last Friday, then swept The Master’s University on Saturday and dropped two spots in the coaches poll.
