Magical Run To Final Four A Satisfying Finish For Larson

Sure, Jordan Larson remembers the championships.

She also remembers one of the best teams in Nebraska volleyball history, a defending national championship team that felt pressure to repeat, but fell a match short of making the Final Four in 2007.

"It was an interesting year," Larson said. "We had a lot of talent, we just couldn't put it together."

What's more, the Huskers lost four seniors from that team, including three All-Americans and a national player of the year. Most viewed the 2008 season as a rebuilding team.

"We kind of had our backs against the wall," Larson said.
