ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - The Eckerd volleyball team wraps up the regular season tonight, paying a visit to Florida Tech for a 7:00 PM match.

MATCH 31: Eckerd (18-12, 9-6 SSC) at Florida Tech (7-21, 1-13 SSC)

STAYING ALIVE: The Tritons enter tonight firmly on the bubble for a berth to the NCAA South Regional Tournament.  Eckerd is ranked No. 8 in this week's regional rankings and needs to climb to No. 7 to improve its position for a tournament bid.  A win tonight is a must in order to have a chance to move up.
