The Huskers’ team is aiming for the 2022 NCAA Final Four in Omaha, just up the road from Lincoln.
“We’ve had some ups and downs with our team but we definitely have the ability to win this year and it’s our home court advantage,” Husker outside hitter Ally Batenhorst said.
There are nine teams in the Top 25 that are on Nebraska’s schedule. They also played No. 23 Kansas in April in an exhibition match and won 3-1.
Nebraska has its annual Red-White scrimmage on Saturday, Aug. 20 and its first game on Aug. 26 against Texas A&M Corpus-Christi at the Bob Devaney Sports Center.
