New Orleans, Louisiana – The Gulf Coast Athletic Conference announced the site for the 2015 GCAC Volleyball Championship following at the conclusion of a meeting of the conference's executive committee.

The site award was initially approved by a vote of the conference's athletic directors earlier this month.

The 2015 GCAC Volleyball Championship will be played in Little Rock, Ark., and hosted by Philander Smith College from November 12-14. This will be the first time that Philander Smith has hosted a conference championship event since the 2012 Men's and Women's Basketball Championships.

The winner of the tournament will receive the GCAC's automatic bid to the NAIA Volleyball Tournament which begins November 21, 2015.
