The CSU volleyball team moved up Monday to No. 14 in the national rankings, matching its highest ranking of the season.

The Rams (19-2, 8-0 Mountain West Conference) swept Denver and Wyoming last week to run their winning streak to 10 consecutive matches. Colorado State University has won 14 of 15 matches since losing Sept. 4 at Florida, now the No. 1 team in the American Volleyball Coaches Association poll.

The Rams’ only match this week is an 8 p.m. contest Saturday at San Diego State. CSU’s next home match is at 7 p.m. Nov. 4 against UNLV.

CSU was ranked No. 17 in the preseason poll and worked its way up to No. 14 in the Sept. 13 poll. The Rams fell to No. 18 the following week after dropping a home match to Long Beach State, the team with the most votes not in the Top 25 in this week’s poll. CSU has steadily worked its way back up the rankings for the past six weeks, spending two weeks at No. 18 and moving up one spot a week in the past four polls.
