Huskers Begin Season at No. 1 in AVCA Preseason Poll
Huskers.com

The Nebraska volleyball team was ranked No. 1 in the preseason AVCA Coaches Poll on Wednesday.

The Huskers collected 1,490 points in the poll and came in ahead of No. 2 Penn State (1,459), No. 3 Pittsburgh (1,338), No. 4 Louisville (1,240) and No. 5 Texas (1,223). Nebraska got 40 first-place votes, while Penn State had 21.

It marks Nebraska's 109th week all-time at No. 1 in the AVCA Coaches Poll, the most of any program in the nation. The last time the Huskers were ranked No. 1 to start a season was prior to the 2022 season. Nebraska was last ranked No. 1 in the AVCA Poll on Nov. 27, 2023.

Nebraska will be tested right out of the gate with matches against No. 3 Pittsburgh (Aug. 22) and No. 6 Stanford (Aug. 24) at the AVCA First Serve at Pinnacle Bank Arena.

NU has 12 regular-season matches scheduled against preseason Top 25 teams, including six against top-10 teams.
