No. 1 Nebraska volleyball took care of business on the road Thursday night, sweeping Big Ten-winless Northwestern at Welsh-Ryan Arena.

Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week Manaia Ogbechie missed the match with an illness, but the Huskers (18-0, 7-0 Big Ten) didn’t miss a beat despite Coach Dani Busboom Kelly going deep into her bench in the 25-17, 25-14, 25-15 victory.

“It certainly wasn’t our cleanest match or best match of the year, but I did think some players came off the bench and did a really nice job, so that was good to see,” Busboom Kelly said on the Huskers Radio Network. “I do want to give our team a little bit of grace. It’s tough to play Wisconsin, we come here, we have a big match on Saturday — mentally, that is not easy, and I thought we worked through some of that mental slump in game one and kind of got going.”
