Wis and Nebraska sweep.
Meanwhile Texas demos the story of the Longhorns the past decade.   Mind-numbing serve receive problems and incredible offense.    Washington mostly dominates for 2+ sets and just falls apart.  UT serve really kept then alive in the 3rd.  

A tough review of a point grazing, maybe,, the antenna and UW never recovers losing 25-22 in the 3rd.  Boat raced 25-9 in the 4th and a meek effort losing 15-9.

The serve receive is just disheartening.  The offense was enjoyable to watch, though.

After the turn, it was all Texas, the Huskies had no answer.  Hoping for that final 2 set Longhorn team from last night, to show up against your Huskers tomorrow.

It's on like Donkey Kong

Sure would be nice to send that traitorous Lexi out with 2 tournament losses to the Horns.

[MarqHusker]

I think she's on to jewelry pitches.   I don't see her on the court Saturday unless Batenhorst is a mess.  She was a little messy in S1 but turned it around.  Youth will be served imo Saturday, win or lose.  Gonna see Krause and Batenhorst.  

Btw: hilarious seeing 6-4 Stivrins playing middle back last night, digging, a BIC and even tried to set a ball.   What's not to like about that?

[FearlessF]

I like it if it works and we get the win over the arrogant Horns
