The Minnesota Gophers volleyball team pulled out another crazy five set come-from-behind win out of their hat Thursday afternoon and will now play for a trip to the NCAA Volleyball Final Four on Saturday night in Madison against arch rival Wisconsin. It will be the third match this season between the Big Ten powers, with the Badgers winning the first two. But everyone knows the old adage about beating a team three times in one year.
The Gophers and Bears played a tight back and forth first set. Both teams swapped small leads and Minnesota actually had two set points at 24-23 and 25-24 to try and put it away, but were set back both times by spectacular play by Baylor All-American Yossiana Pressley.
