High school volleyball is nearing the end of its regular season, as regional play is less than a week away and will start on Monday, October 19.

In 3A volleyball, regional tournaments are hosted by the top four seeded schools, with seeding based on winning percentage. The 64 teams are split into four regional assignments, each consisting of 16 teams divided into four-team pools. Every team plays the other teams in its pool, and the top two finishers in each pool advance to substate.

According to the latest seedings posted on the KSHSAA website, Neodesha sits at No. 3 and is in line to host a regional. The Bluestreaks will share a pool with Caney Valley, Burlington and Osawatomie, while Caney Valley is seeded sixth.

Fredonia is seeded seventh and will play in a pool with Riverton, Anderson County and Columbus. Cherryvale sits at No. 16 and will compete in a pool with Galena, Central Heights and Iola.
