Nebraska has never lost to Iowa in volleyball.

No. 2 Nebraska (27-1, 17-0 B1G) defeated Iowa (10-19, 4-13 B1G) 25-9, 25-16, 25-17 to remain flawless in Big Ten Conference play and flawless all-time against the Hawkeyes. The Huskers lead the all-time series 40-0.

Buoyed by fast starts in the first and third sets, Nebraska doubled Iowa in kills (50-25), despite taking eight fewer swings. However, it was an unusual performance in receiving serve for the Huskers, as they allowed the Hawkeyes to add five aces to their season total. Nebraska fired back with four aces of its own.

Bergen Reilly built on her fourth Big Ten Setter of the Week award this season, guiding Nebraska to a .472 hitting percentage with 41 assists and perfect 3-for-3 shooting. She distributed the ball to all her attackers, as a full team effort didn’t see a single Husker hitter with more than 19 swings.

Harper Murray, despite having her hand taped in the third set due to a broken nail, was the only player in double figures with 11 kills while hitting .556.

Taylor Landfair, Merritt Beason and Andi Jackson each added seven kills, with Landfair and Beason chipping in defensively with three blocks each. Jackson was efficient because her seven kills came on just eight swings.

Rebekah Allick continued her run of balanced games with six kills and five blocks despite not playing in the third set.

Leyla Blackwell and Lindsay Krause entered in the third set and immediately made themselves known. Krause lit up the field with six kills on eight swings, while Blackwell contributed three kills and two blocks.

Nebraska hosts No. 6 Wisconsin on Saturday for the final game of the regular season at the Bob Devaney Sports Center. The first service is scheduled for 7:00 PM CST on the Big Ten Network.
