Huskers Dominate Creighton
No. 1 Nebraska volleyball cruised to a 25-13, 25-15, 25-19 sweep of No. 20 Creighton in front of a program-record indoor home crowd of 15,405 inside Pinnacle Bank Arena on Wednesday night.
The attendance of 15,405 is the largest indoor home crowd in Nebraska volleyball history, surpassing 13,870 against UCLA on Sept. 13, 2009, at the Bob Devaney Sports Center.
The defense for Nebraska (8-0) shined as the Huskers held No. 20 Creighton (5-5) to a season-low -.033 hitting percentage and picked up nine blocks. The Big Red improved to 25-0 in the all-time series against the Jays.
Kenna Cogill recorded a career-high eight kills and hit .727 to power the Nebraska offense. Andi Jackson led the Huskers with nine kills and added six blocks, and Virginia Adriano chipped in with eight kills.
Harper Murray finished with eight kills, moving her into eighth place in the Nebraska career kills chart in the rally-scoring era.
Bergen Reilly recorded her third double-double of the season, recording 33 assists and 11 digs. Teraya Sigler added a season-high 11 digs, while Olivia Mauch also had 11 digs.
No. 1 Nebraska continues its homestand on Friday as the Big Red hosts No. 25 North Carolina inside John Cook Arena at the Bob Devaney Sports Center. First serve between the Huskers and Tar Heels is set for 7 p.m. (CT) on KVSH radio.
