2024 CAA Champions: By the Numbers

CHARLESTON, S.C. – No. 1 College of Charleston captured its ninth tournament championship and tenth trip to the NCAA Tournament after defeating No. 2 seeded Delaware in five sets in Towson, Md.

The 2024 campaign became the seventh time in program history that the Cougars are regular season and tournament champions in the same season. Charleston has also clinched a berth in the NCAA Tournament in 10 of its last 23 seasons.

BLOCK PARTY:

Charleston set a program record for total blocks in a single season with its first block in Saturday's championship match, surpassing 2007's 323.0. The Cougars enter the NCAA Tournament with 335.0 total blocks.
CofC tallied 14 blocks in the semifinal against Hofstra and 12 against Delaware, including six in the fifth set alone.
18 of Charleston's 33 matches this season have been a block party (10-plus blocks), with the Cougars recording 14-or-more blocks in nine of those contests.
The previous Charleston CAA Tournament records were 25 blocks and Krissy Mummey's 12 individual blocks in 2015. The 2024 squad established a new high in total blocks (26) and individual blocks (Allie Holland, 14), which were done in one fewer match.
