Nebraska
Rising Illinois set to challenge Big Ten leaders Nebraska
When the teams first met, Illinois were yet to win a set in Big Ten play. After that encounter however, they seem to have found their form, winning five straight matches and dropping just three sets to move up to eighth place in the conference standings, with five wins and three losses.
Graduate student outside hitter Raina Terry, seventh in kills (118), redshirt junior setter Brooke Mosher, third in aces (19) and 12th in assists (235), and redshirt sophomore middle blocker Cari Bohm, 12th in blocks (34), have been playing big roles in the team’s good form.
After playing Nebraska, Illinois will head to Iowa City to face Iowa on Sunday, at 14:00 local time (19:00 GMT), while the Cornhuskers stay home to host Michigan on Saturday, at 19:00 local time (0:00 GMT, Sunday).
