The Nebraska Volleyball is looking to open the fall season on August 22, 2025, and before that, the players are ready to set the pace in an Alumni match-up on Saturday, August 16th at 6 PM at the Bob Devaney Sports Center. The current players will go against the former Huskers in what Dani Busboom Kelly believed would be 'more fun' for the fans.

Nebraska Volleyball was one win away from making it to the Championship finals in the past NCAA season, losing to defending champions Penn State. This season, the Huskers started strong with a dominant beach season and capped the spring season with a 25-18, 25-19, 25-17, 25-19 win over South Dakota State at Ord High School.

Last Saturday, at the John Cook arena, the players went head-on in the Red-White scrimmage with the Red team grabbing the first three sets before giving it away to the White team. Now, as the players head to the Nebraska Volleyball Alumni match, here's a look at some of the ex-players who are taking the court.
