Fox Sports will broadcast 35 women's volleyball matches, including 8 on Fox
The schedule includes 27 games on FS1 and FS2 and marks the most volleyball matches Fox has carried on broadcast TV in one season.
- On Monday, Fox Sports announced it will air 35 women's college volleyball matches this season, including eight on the Fox broadcast network—the most ever on a single network in one season.
- Fox Sports president for insight and analytics Mike Mulvihill said the sport mirrors basketball's growth trajectory from five years ago. "I think the same patterns that we saw in basketball five years ago are what we're now seeing in volleyball," Mulvihill said.
- The schedule begins Saturday with Louisville facing Wisconsin in the Jeep AVCA First Serve at 4 p.m. Eastern. Coverage also includes a Big Ten/SEC Volleyball Challenge Week doubleheader at Wrigley Field on Sept. 6.
- FS1 and FS2 will carry the remaining 27 matches, while Fox broadcasts the first Big Ten Volleyball Championship on Nov. 25. Nebraska faces Texas in the Players Era Volleyball Showcase on Aug. 30.
- Despite lacking a mainstream star like Iowa's Caitlin Clark, volleyball's rising popularity in programs such as Pitt, Nebraska, and Wisconsin continues driving national support, according to Mulvihill.
