NCAA Division I Women's Volleyball - Mid Major Poll?

One of the challenges that non power conference NCAA Division I programs find, is garnering any notoriety because they are not in the power conferences.  NCAA DI Top 25, NCAA Division National Championship at large bids, coverage by the sports media, being televised,  etc, etc.

VolleyballMag.com has published an inaugural Mid-Major Poll and this is wonderful to see for nothing more than giving a little bit of love to very good DI programs who just are not in the well loved conferences.
