There were no problems for Husker volleyball this time.

Just a day after surviving a five-set thriller against No. 10 Purdue, No. 2 Nebraska defeated Rutgers in straight sets in volleyball. The Huskers won 25-15, 25-16, 25-12 to improve to 16-1 and remain undefeated in Big Ten play. The Scarlet Knights are now 5-12 on the year and 0-6 in league play.

Nebraska’s dominance was on display on both sides of the net. Offensively, the Huskers hit .314. Defensively, NU had 51 digs and nine blocks and held Rutgers to .083 hitting.

Sophomore outside hitter Harper Murray had a game-high 13 kills to go and 11 digs. Leyla Blackwell, starting for Rebekah Allick, had nine kills for a .600 hitting percentage and a match-high seven blocks.

Bergen Reilly dished out 25 assists and added a game-high 13 digs to complete the double-double.

Nebraska will play on consecutive days again next week, this time on the road. The Huskers face Michigan State on Friday on the Big Ten Network and Ohio State on Saturday on NBC.
