No. 1 Nebraska Volleyball Sweeps No. 12 Oregon to Move to 24-0

No. 1 Nebraska volleyball opened its West Coast road trip with a dominant 3-0 sweep against No. 12 Oregon at Matthew Knight Arena on Saturday, November 8, 2026, handing the Ducks their first home loss of the season in front of a record-setting crowd of 12,364 and the first-ever volleyball sellout in school history.

The victory improves the Huskers’ perfect record to 24-0.

Nebraska put together one of its most impressive attacking performances of the season, finishing with 53 kills on a .425 hitting percentage against an elite Oregon frontline that typically holds opponents to a .199 hitting percentage. Bergen Reilly recorded 14 assists, guiding the team to a .571 for the set.

Senior outside hitter Harper Murray and sophomore outside hitter Teraya Sigler led the attack with 14 kills each, both hitting above .450. Sophomore opposite hitter Virginia Adriano added 11 kills and tied her career high with a .500 hitting percentage, while the team committed only eight attacking errors all night.

Unlike last weekend’s matches against Michigan and Michigan State where the Huskers dropped both opening sets, Nebraska came out firing immediately. The match started with three straight kills—including one from Adriano and a pair from senior middle Andi Jackson—propelling the team to a flawless opening frame with 17 kills on a .607 hitting percentage.

Defensively, the Huskers limited Oregon to just eight kills on a .148 hitting percentage in the first set. After Oregon fought back in the third set following the media timeout, Nebraska used a 10-6 run to close out the match with set scores of 25-13, 25-16, and a final sweep.

Despite the offensive dominance, Nebraska recorded only five total blocks as a team, failing to register a single block in the final set. The middle duo of Jackson and sophomore Manaia Ogbechie combined for just four blocks. Following the win in Eugene, the Huskers head north to Seattle to face No. 18 Washington on Sunday afternoon at 5:30 p.m. in a match televised on Fox Sports 1.
