Volleyball: #7 Nebraska Silences the Cyclones

A Sunday matinee at the Bob Devaney Sports Center pitted former Big XII rivals Iowa State and Nebraska against one another in a non-conference battle.

Sunday afternoon at the Bob Devaney Sports Complex in Lincoln, the #7-ranked Nebraska Huskers Women’s volleyball team hosted their former Big XII rival the Iowa State Cyclones. On the day when the Huskers retired Sarah Pavan’s #9 jersey, the Huskers handled the visitors from Ames 3-0 (25-22, 25-18, 25-16).

Nebraska scored first, but Iowa State answered quickly to take their own lead, 2-1. Nebraska offense woke up at that point and with junior outside hitter Mikaela Foecke on the service line, the Huskers used a 4-0 to force an Iowa State timeout with the Huskers leading 5-2.

The visitors settled in a bit after that, but the Huskers held onto their advantage as the teams traded points. Nebraska head coach John Cook used a challenge early on a ball called in bounds by the official that appeared to touch the line. The call was upheld on review.
