January 13, 2025 | Men's Volleyball

CHICAGO, Ill. – The Big Ten Network and the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation on Monday announced B1G+ and BTN as the exclusive home of MPSF men's and beach volleyball. Beginning this season, men's volleyball matches from all nine MPSF members will stream exclusively on B1G+. Additionally, at least three men's volleyball and three beach volleyball matches are set to air on BTN.
 
More than 135 men's volleyball matches are set to stream on B1G+, BTN's subscription service for non-televised events and archives of classic games and original content. Fans can subscribe to B1G+ with an annual pass for $89.99 per year or a monthly pass for $12.99 per month.
 
"The opportunity to make B1G+ the exclusive streaming home for MPSF men's and beach volleyball, particularly with the additions of Oregon, UCLA, USC and Washington to the Big Ten Conference, makes a great deal of sense for the Big Ten Network and our commitment to volleyball," said Michael Calderon, Senior Vice President of Programming and Digital Media for the Big Ten Network. "We are confident that our platforms will provide exceptional exposure for these two sports and showcase the championship-level programs across the West Coast."
 
"The MPSF is thrilled to announce its partnership with the Big Ten Network," said MPSF Executive Director Foti Mellis. "By broadcasting our competitions on B1G+ and BTN, we can showcase the exceptional volleyball teams and student-athletes within our conference. Their platforms will provide maximum exposure for our student-athletes and member institutions. This partnership allows the MPSF to share its story and celebrate the numerous successes of our national champions and Olympic medalists."
 
UCLA and USC are members of the MPSF in men's volleyball, alongside BYU, Concordia, Grand Canyon, Menlo, Pepperdine, Stanford and Vanguard. Oregon, UCLA, USC and Washington are all members of the conference in beach volleyball, along with California, Grand Canyon and Stanford. UCLA has won 21 national championships in men's volleyball, including back-to-back titles in 2023 and 2024, and has won two national championships in beach volleyball. USC has captured seven national championships in beach volleyball, including four consecutive titles from 2021-24, and has won six national championships in men's volleyball.

UCLA men's volleyball is set to be featured on B1G+, as well as ESPN U and ESPN+ throughout the 2025 season. To kick of the streaming/linear network campaign No. 1 UCLA will face No. 14 Penn State on ESPN U to kick off the First Point Collegiate Challenge in Austin, Texas. First serve of that match is set for 2 p.m. PT (4 p.m. CT).

UCLA's second match of the First Point Collegiate Challenge will be against No. 13 Ohio State on Jan. 18 and will be broadcast on ESPN+.

The remainder of UCLA's home and away contests in the MPSF will be broadcast on B1G+, with the potential for dates to be picked up by Big Ten Network (BTN).
