The Huskers return to Devaney Center for a three-match weekend gauntlet against New Mexico, Baylor, and Georgia Tech. Following a chaotic but team-building exhibition at Wrigley Field, Lincoln will see the team face a New Mexico squad led by returning star Addison France.

  • GN sports/volleyball (en-US) highlights that the Wrigley Field exhibition, despite logistical issues with humidity and timing, served as a bonding experience for the squad. The outlet also notes that New Mexico returns sophomore Addison France as a key offensive threat, though the Lobos are currently 2-3 on the season.
