Nebraska volleyball ranked No. 1 in AVCA preseason poll
The first poll of the 2025 collegiate volleyball season has been released, and the Cornhuskers are on top. Nebraska ranks No. 1 in the country in the AVCA/TARAFLEX Division I women's volleyball preseason poll. The Huskers received 40 of the 61 first-place votes while No. 2 Penn State had the other 21 votes. Pittsburgh ranks No. 3, with Louisville No. 4 and Texas rounding out the top five. The last time the Huskers were ranked as a preseason No. 1 was in 2022. Nebraska was last ranked No. 1 in the AVCA Poll on Nov. 27, 2023. Nebraska finished 33-3 last season, ending the year in the NCAA semifinals. Now, the team is entering a new era following the retirement of John Cook, with head coach Dani Busboom Kelly at the helm. For the Big Ten this season, the Huskers rank No. 1 in the preseason rankings. Three Nebraska volleyball players were named to an award watch list late last month. Andi Jackson, Harper Murray, and Bergen Reilly were named to the AVCA Player of the Year watch list. Nebraska will begin the 2025 season on Friday, August 22, when the Huskers host No. 3 Pittsburgh at Pinnacle Bank Arena.
