Four more votes was the only difference for the Ball State University men's volleyball team in this week's top 15 coaches poll.
For the second consecutive week, Ball State stayed tied with Loyola University at No. 15 in the newest poll released on Monday afternoon.
Both Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association teams received 22 votes - a four-vote increase from last week - after winning their conference matches during the weekend. Ball State (15-8, 6-4 MIVA) defeated IPFW in five games Saturday, and Loyola (14-9, 3-5 MIVA) beat last-place Quincy University twice.
