With this win against Washington, the Nebraska volleyball team has taken their winning streak to 15-0 this season.

Following Nebraska’s win, Harper Murray was asked about Bergen Reilly being named Setter of the Week on Monday, October 6. During the post-match interview, Murray reflected on her teammate’s contributions and praised how she continues to improve, saying (3:26 onwards):

“Yeah. Well, I think honestly I think Campbell [Flynn] pushes her too. I think having a setter like Campbell in our gym, she competes with Bergen every day and I think that's making Bergen a lot better, too. So, we know Bergen's a great setter and we like to have discipline and like balanced offense, but Bergen's continuing to get better.”
