NCAA volleyball: Huskers' winning steak hits 12 as NU heads to Sweet 16

Last season was an inconsistent, up-and-down affair for the Nebraska volleyball team.

The Huskers beat eventual national champion Penn State one night, then suffered a horrible loss to unranked Ohio State the next. Win at Michigan State, then get embarrassed by Michigan. Stun third-ranked Washington on its home court in the NCAA Sweet 16, then get swept by No. 12 BYU in the Elite Eight.

It was a head-shaking three months as Nebraska slipped as low as No. 14 in the AVCA poll. That inconsistency bothered NU coach John Cook. Got to get it fixed in 2015, he said.
