MLV spotlight: Indy at Dallas (6:00 PM MT, Roku Sports Channel) — First-place Indy (8-2) hits the road to face a Dallas squad that's been one of the better stories in MLV's second season. The Ignite swept the Pulse at home earlier this month, but Dallas has been dangerous at Comerica Center all year. Columbus at Atlanta kicks off the evening at 5:00 PM in the other MLV game — the Vibe looking to build on a solid stretch at home.
LOVB spotlight: Atlanta at Houston (6:00 PM MT, ESPN+) — Houston comes in riding a six-match winning streak after claiming the inaugural LOVB Classic title last Sunday. Jordan Thompson continues to lead the league in points, kills, points per set, and kills per set. Atlanta has found some life lately, winning two straight including a dominant sweep of Nebraska at the Classic — powered by Onye Ofoegbu's record-setting .929 hitting efficiency. Their first meeting this season went Houston's way in four sets, with Thompson posting 23 points. Also available on Disney+ and Facebook.

The Big One This Week
Saturday's LOVB Houston at LOVB Salt Lake (6:00 PM MT, Victory+) is the match of the week. Salt Lake (7-1) holds a commanding lead atop the LOVB standings and hasn't lost since early January. Houston rides in with six straight wins and Thompson playing at an MVP level. If Houston wins, the race tightens considerably. If Salt Lake holds serve at home, they'll be in a very strong position for the stretch run. Don't miss it.
