Missouri prepares to face Nebraska volleyball in historic match at Wrigley Field

Missouri volleyball travels to Chicago to face top-ranked Nebraska at Wrigley Field this weekend. The outdoor matchup serves as a significant test for the Tigers as they adjust to environmental factors including sunlight and wind. Missouri players expect to face a challenging, highly experienced opponent in the Huskers, who are now coached by Dani Busboom Kelly. To prepare for the unique conditions, Missouri conducted outdoor practice sessions to simulate the atmosphere of the historic venue. Rather than focusing solely on the final outcome, the Tigers aim to use the game as a benchmark for their own growth and execution. The team plans to focus on aggressive serving and defensive transitions to mitigate Nebraska’s offensive depth.
