Lincoln, Nebraska – September 10: Nebraska Cornhuskers volleyball team secured a win against in-state rival Creighton on Wednesday night and will return to Bob Devaney Sports Center for the remainder of their non-conference season. The Cornhuskers are known for playing in an electric home environment at Devaney, but have noticed it being a bit too quiet this year.
Head coach expects the team to be loud and supportive for their upcoming match against #25 ranked North Carolina Tar Heels on Friday night. This will be the team's last ranked test of the non-conference schedule and their last weekend before starting Big Ten play on Friday against Rutgers. North Carolina, who made it to the second round of the NCAA Tournament last year, is coming off a 4-2 record.
They have a win against #7 SMU during the regular season, but were unable to advance further in the tournament. The ACC is known for being one of the strongest conferences, with North Carolina being ranked 25th, just behind Stanford, Pitt, Louisville, and SMU. The match between Nebraska and North Carolina will take place at Bob Devaney Center, televised on B1G Network at 7:00pm CST.
