Nebraska 3 vs Dayton 1 - 25-17, 25-18, 25-27, 25-13
It was a shaky start for Nebraska with a couple hitting errors and errant passes but the one part of their game that did not start slowly was the block. From the very first set to #4 Lexie Almodovar from Dayton the Husker block was formed in front of her and she had four hands pressing toward her. This made a difference in set one when the score was close.
Nebraska led for the first time during set one at 14-13.
