Benedictine Mesa Women's Volleyball has been picked to finish fourth in the 2026 GSAC Preseason Coaches' Poll. The poll was voted on by the conference's head coaches, who were not permitted to vote for their own teams. Rankings were determined using a weighted point system, with 10 points awarded for a first-place vote, nine for second place, and so on.
The Redhawks begin GSAC play at home on September 5 against Life Pacific. In just their second season competing in the conference, Benedictine Mesa posted a 7-9 GSAC record in 2025. Entering her second year at the helm, head coach Madison Kindle returns eight players from last season's roster while adding a talented group of newcomers as the Redhawks look to continue building toward a successful campaign.
