In 2009, they won their third NCAA Division II national title, becoming the first NCAA Division I or II team to win three in a row. The Golden Bear volleyball team had a 75 match winning streak from 2008-2010. They won their fourth straight national title in 2010 defeating the University of Tampa 3-1.

On December 8, 2012, the Golden Bears dropped the first two sets to the Tampa Spartans but rallied to win 3-2 for their sixth straight national championship. On December 14, 2013, the Golden Bears swept the BYU-Hawaii Seasiders in three straight sets to win their seventh consecutive national championship at the Division-II level.
