October was not kind to Nebraska volleyball, as the Huskers went 3-5 in their eight matches scheduled last month. November has already been much kinder to Nebraska, as the girls have won all four of their matches so far.
In Nebraska’s defense, their October schedule was absolutely brutal. Five of their eight matches were against top ten teams and the Huskers lost all five of them. They rebounded nicely to start November, however, battling with Penn State and eventually knocking the Nittany Lions off in five sets.
The schedule eased up a bit for Nebraska after that Penn State match, as they swept both Rutgers at home and Iowa on the road before heading to Ann Arbor for a date with Michigan.
