[Husker] National Championship

[Harmon, Josh]

I watched most of the game tonight -- which i don't usually get a chance to do.  I was confused by two things -- I had thought in Volleball only the serving team scored.  I guess that's not the case in college.  Then they said something about -- if the match went to game 5 it would by "rally scoring".  What's that?  The game was really fun to watch though.  Man their reflexes are just amazing.  Sometimes I fool myself and think I could compete on a football field -- but I don't think could come close to being on the same court with those women (not the football field either -- but I play a lot of NCAA Football on the xbox!).

ESPN2 said a lot of great things about the state and the attention volleyball get's there.  It was pretty cool.  Qwest center looked smaller than I thought it would be from seeing it from the outside.  Still nice.

Well, the Huskers are finally in the National Championship Game.  The Husker Volleyball Team will face #2 Stanford in a matchup that they have been waiting for since they announced the hosting of the final 4 in the Qwest Center in Omaha.  A record crowd to watch an NCAA volleyball game witnessed some tense action in the NU-UCLA game as NU won 3-1.  Nebraska will face the winner of the Stanford-Washington game played later in the evening.  Sarah Pavan collected 22 kills and Tracy Stalls hit .577 as top-ranked Nebraska (32-1) overcame a first-game loss to defeat fourth-seed UCLA (33-4).
