LEXINGTON, Ky. – The University of Missouri-St. Louis volleyball team moved up three spots to No. 5 in this week's AVCA/Taraflex Division II Coaches Top-25 Polls. It's the highest the Tritons have ever been ranked.

UMSL improved to 8-0 last weekend with four wins at the Flagler Saints Classic. The Tritons defeated Embry-Riddle, Flagler and Converse each in straight sets and rallied for a four-set win over Missouri Southern.

UMSL returns to the court this Friday where they'll take on Harding at 11:30 a.m. and Maryville at 4:30 p.m. in the McKendree Bearcat Classic in Lebanon, Ill.
