Volleyball: Huskers Sweep Ducks to Punch Ticket to Championship Weekend

The Huskers met the Oregon Ducks in the regional final in Minneapolis. The Huskers swept the Ducks to punch their ticket to the national semifinal next weekend- in Minneapolis.

Two sweeps in Minneapolis this weekend allowed the Huskers to advance to the national semi-finals. The matches against Kentucky and Oregon were played at the Sports Pavilion on the Minnesota campus. Next weekend, the matches will be at the Target Center in downtown Minneapolis.

The Huskers advanced by beating the Oregon Ducks decisively in the regional finals in a sweep 25-22, 25-23, 25-17.

Nebraska’s defense held the Oregon offense below the .313 they’d managed on Friday night, but .250 is still a very respectable hitting number. The Huskers, however, hit .345 led by 16 kills from senior outside hitter and captain Mikaela Foecke who hit .400. Sophomore middle blocker Lauren Stivrins had 11 kills on 19 swings to hit .526.
