The Warriors received 14 of a possible 16 first-place votes in the polling of AVCA coaches.
UC Irvine, which received one first-place vote, is ranked second, followed by UCLA and Penn State.
Penn State, which received the other first-place vote, and No. 7 Ball State will compete in this week's Outrigger Hotels Volleyball Invitational in the Stan Sheriff Center.
The tournament runs Thursday through Saturday.
