The largest NCAA volleyball tournament in the country is once again coming to the Hammond Sportsplex in Hammond, Indiana. The Great Lakes Valley Conference, the Greadt Midwest Athletic Conference and the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference come together for the 2022 Midwest Region Crossover.

The crossover tournament event will be held Friday and Saturday (Oct. 14-15) in the 12-court facility with 36 teams to compete. Each team will be guaranteed three matches and every session will utilize six courts at once.

Rockhurst will play Ferris State and Cedarville on Friday, while the Hawks' opponent on Saturday will be determined after Friday's matches.

This is the 14th annual edition of the event and the second time the event will be held in Hammond.

"The South Shore Convention & Visitors Authority (SSCVA) and Hammond Sportsplex have been instrumental in putting on this great tournament during the past two years," stated GLIAC Commissioner Kris Dunbar. "The Midwest Crossover is the largest Division II collegiate volleyball tournament in the nation and a major collaborative effort with the GLIAC, GLVC, G-MAC and our local hosts. It is a massive undertaking and an event our volleyball coaches and players look forward to every fall."

The GLVC will field a total of 13 teams, the G-MAC will have all 13 member institutions competing and the GLIAC will travel 10 different programs. The traditional all-tournament team with members from all three conferences will be announced following the conclusion of the event. Visit southshorecva.com/mrvc for more information.
