COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The No. 1 Ohio State University men's volleyball team secured a Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association regular season title for the 26th time in school history, clinching the trophy with a straight-sets win (25-17, 29-27, 25-18) over McKendree (9-17, 4-9 MIVA). The Buckeyes are now 24-2 overall and 13-0 in conference play this season. Ohio State also extended its winning streak to 28 consecutive matches versus MIVA opponents.

Ohio State's 26 MIVA regular season championships are the most in league history, five trophies clear of Ball State's 21 conference crowns.

Miles Johnson and Nicolas Szerszen combined for 35 of 45 OSU kills, attacking .508 as a duo. Johnson averaged seven kills per set, hitting .486 while Szerszen attacked .542 on his 14 kills. Both Buckeyes added multiple aces to their stat line as well. The pair of pin hitters were responsible for a total of 42 points.

Christy Blough dished out 39 assists as the Buckeyes swung .326. He was also one of five OSU players to register five or more digs, including seven each from Gabriel Domecus, Johnson and Szerszen.
