MADISON – Saige Damrow is headed to Nebraska but not the Cornhuskers.

The former defensive specialist/libero for the Wisconsin volleyball team announced Saturday her commitment to Creighton, the undefeated Big East champion that calls Omaha home.

The Bluejays (32-3) reached the Elite 8 this season before falling to eventual national champion Penn State in five sets.

That team was led by three senior All-Americans that included libero Maddy Bilinovic. Damrow, a native of Howards Grove, will be in the hunt to replace her.

Damrow announced her commitment on Instagram.

A leg injury sidelined Damrow for all but three matches of her freshman season. This year Damrow ranked fourth on the Badgers with 2.24 digs per set and played in 19 of 33 matches. That included a five-match run at libero at the end of the regular season when freshman Lola Schumacher, the starter, was out due to injury.

Damrow has three years of eligibility remaining.
