The Tiger's men's volleyball program features 36 AUS conference championship winners within 44 years (first in the 1971-72 season and last in the 2014-15 season).[9] However, after the disbanding of the Moncton Aigles Bleus team in 2006, the AUS featured only three teams, so interlock play with the RSEQ was featured heavily.[10] The conference was further reduced to two following the folding of the Memorial Sea-Hawks after the 2016-17 season, leaving the program in jeopardy since the AUS requires a three-team minimum for varsity leagues.[11] However, the AUS allowed Dalhousie and the UNB Varsity Reds to play a transitional season before joining the RSEQ as full members for the 2018-19 season.[12]
