UMES vs UPR-Rio Piedras
Welcome to men’s volleyball Maryland Eastern Shore! The model knows next to nothing about these teams which is exciting from a data standpoint and from a grow-the-game standpoint.
According to what I know, the UPR system used to align with ours(Spring play season), but recently it changed to fall Championships. Unsure how they finished but they probably have not played for a few weeks in PR. At the very least it will be warm.
