The Huskers started off their weekend with the final match against Illinois of the season. These two first met on October 3rd with Nebraska sweeping the Illini in Champaign. We saw the same thing happen tonight as Nebraska swept Illinois again with an exciting 3rd set.
The Huskers looked strong in the first two sets even though Illinois was keeping pace with them and could’ve easily stolen one of those sets from them. The third set is where things got a little dicey.
Illinois and Nebraska went back and forth with who has the lead and who doesn’t.
