Husker Volleyball Tangles With Lions Tonight in NCAA Semifinals

The third-ranked Nebraska volleyball club will take on No. 2 Penn State in the NCAA semifinals tonight. 

The match will begin 30 minutes after the conclusion of the other semifinal between No. 1 Pitt and fourth-ranked and host Louisville.  That semifinal begins at 5:30 p.m., with first serve of the Huskers match against the Nittany Lions expected around 8 p.m.  The pregame starts at 7 p.m. on News Talk 900 KJSK. 

Tonight, the Huskers look to avenge a 3-1 loss at Penn State on November 29th.  That snapped NU’s seven-match winning streak against their Big Ten rivals.  The two clubs shared the Big Ten title this season, as both teams went 19-1 in league play and 33-2 overall. 

The Big Red is 28-12 all-time against Penn State, 8-3 against PSU in the postseason.
