Last weekend in Lincoln, the Huskers advanced to their 13th consecutive regional by sweeping Florida A&M and Miami in the first and second rounds of the NCAA Tournament. During the weekend, they defeated Florida A&M 25-3 in the first set, the most lopsided set victory in program history.
Since 2013, Nebraska has won 24 straight home NCAA Tournament games, and the school has an overall record of 132-37 in the tournament.
Nebraska’s record versus Dayton is 4-0 overall. The Huskers defeated them 3-0 in Ohio on September 5, 2014, the last time they met. In 2003, the Huskers defeated them 3-0 in the second round of the NCAA Tournament in East Lansing, Michigan.
Last weekend, the Dayton Flyers upset No. 16 Baylor 3-2 in Waco, Texas, to advance to their first NCAA Regional. They are ranked fifth in defense and sixth in offense nationally. Outside hitter Lexie Almodovar, a two-time A-10 player of the year, leads them. With 5.02 kills per set, she leads the Flyers.
In his second season with the Flyers, head coach Tim Horsmon has the Dayton program thriving. For the second consecutive season, Dayton finished the A10 with an 18-0 record.
