No. 1 Nebraska volleyball faces Iowa in Lincoln with 57-match regular-season win streak on the line

No. 1 Nebraska volleyball will defend a 57-match regular-season winning streak when the Huskers host Iowa at the Bob Devaney Sports Center in Lincoln on Saturday evening. The match kicks off at 6 p.m. Central Time and will be livestreamed exclusively on B1G+ for subscribers.

Nebraska enters the Big Ten showdown having dominated the series against Iowa, leading 41-0 in their 42 meetings. The Huskers hold the No. 1 ranking in the latest AVCA Coaches Poll released on November 9, marking their 135th week at the top spot, the most of any program nationwide.

Senior setter Bergen Reilly has been instrumental in Nebraska’s recent success. She earned Big Ten Setter of the Week honors for the second consecutive week after directing the Huskers to an NCAA-leading .448 hitting percentage last week. Reilly averaged 13.33 assists per set across two matches, placing her fourth nationally.

The streak Nebraska defends stretches back to the 2024 regular season and stands as the longest in the program’s NCAA era, which began in 1981. It reflects consistent dominance in the regular season, although the Huskers will need to maintain focus against a Hawkeyes team eager to earn their first win in this rivalry.

The match will not be televised on traditional channels but is available through the B1G+ streaming service. Fans can follow ongoing updates on Nebraska volleyball via Cornhuskers Wire’s social media channels on X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook.

As Nebraska prepares for the encounter, the spotlight will remain firmly on Reilly’s playmaking and the team’s ability to sustain their offensive efficiency. The 57-match winning streak is at stake, and the Huskers will seek to extend their unbeaten run in regular-season play on home court.
