Wisconsin's point of weakness was revealed in the second set of the Purdue match, during which the Badger offense was held to hitting in the negatives, erring more balls (10) than they killed (9). On Sunday, it was business as usual as Nebraska swept Rutgers on the road.Īs for Wisconsin, a four-set win over a top-20 Purdue squad and a straight-set win over Illinois summed up their week. 426 hitting with five digs and three blocks to usher the Huskers to victory. Merritt Beason killed a career-best 27 balls on. The Huskers garnered some momentum in the third to keep the match alive, and didn't let off the gas until the end of the fifth set, which the Huskers nearly took, 15-13. 552 and posting no errors, and continued to out-hit the Huskers in the second set, killing 18 to Nebraska's 14. The Nittany Lions had a stellar first set, hitting.
There's no movement in the top two spots, but that's because Nebraska just narrowly escaped Penn State on Friday in its first reverse sweep of the season.
