HUSKER VOLLEYBALL: Nebraska prepares for Final Four match vs. Penn State

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WOWT) – Nebraska is back in the Final Four.

The Big Red arrived in Louisville late Tuesday night and will take to the podium Wednesday for their Final Four media availability.

This is the sixth appearance in a national semifinal over the last nine years for John Cook’s Huskers. Their season ended here last year with a loss to Texas in the title game. Now, the Huskers are back on college volleyball’s biggest stage with some unfinished business.

Standing in their way Thursday will be Penn State (33-2). In their only meeting this season, the Nittany Lions beat Nebraska 3-1, forcing the two squads to share the conference title at the end of the season.

Penn State and Nebraska do battle Thursday at approximately 8 p.m. in at the KFC Yum! Center in Louisville, Ky., following the conclusion of Pittsburgh vs. Louisville, which is scheduled for 5:30 p.m.

Both games will be televised on ESPN and streaming on WatchESPN.
