Contents

UC Irvine defeated IPFW in the final match, 3–1 (30–20, 24–30, 30–23, 30–28), to win their first national title. Both teams made their debut appearances in the title match. The Anteaters (29–5) were coached by John Speraw.

UC Irvine's Matt Webber was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player. Webber, along with six other players, comprised the All Tournament Team.

Qualification

Until the creation of the NCAA Men's Division III Volleyball Championship in 2012, there was only a single national championship for men's volleyball. As such, all NCAA men's volleyball programs, whether from Division I, Division II, or Division III, were eligible. A total of 4 teams were invited to contest this championship.
