Creighton pushed the defending national champions to the very brink after stepping on the gas early (25-22, 25-19, 18-25, 22-25, 10-15), but ultimately couldn’t hold on as Nebraska pulled back the final three games in front of the largest crowd ever at an NCAA regular season volleyball game.
“What an awesome night of volleyball, to have the largest crowd in NCAA history is pretty amazing,” said Creighton coach Bernthal Booth. “What incredible fans we have in this state. I think they came and enjoyed great volleyball especially for early in the season when both teams are trying to work out a lot of kinks.
