Nebraska’s Well-Deserving Star Clinches Big 10 Volleyball Player of the Week as Team Falls Short of Top Spot in University Rankings

The Big Ten Volleyball Championship is among volleyball spectators’ most anticipated events. Along the same lines, participating school teams leave no stone unturned to make this event one of a kind. As per a recent weekly chart, some players have made it to the top spot with their exceptional skills and remarkable scores. Nebraska’s junior outside hitter is also among the top names this week.

In addition, this honor was given by the conference’s home office, making Nebraska’s key player among the best players in the tournament. However, despite having a key player, Nebraska is not the top team on the charts. Why?

Lindsay’s Exceptional Game Play

Some time ago, a list for the Big Ten Volleyball Players of the Week featured Nebraska’s key volleyball player, Lindsay Krause. Even though Nebraska is not on the top this week, it is among the top two teams. Further, the moment of remarkable presence was during a trip to the Great Lake State, where she managed to help Huskers over two important wins. 

Meanwhile, Lindsay not only helped the team with consequent victories over Michigan State and Michigan but also featured 3.43 kills. Moreover, she also had nine kills and four digs in the match against opponent Spartans last Friday. In addition, she also portrayed her prowess with an exceptional .458 hitting percentage in the same match. 

Nonetheless, Lindsay has also managed to tally 4 aces and 3 blocks in the game. However, her unwarned dedication and the remarkable moves she portrays on the court set Lindsay apart from other players. Eventually, this week’s Big Ten Player of the Week award is her second weekly award, followed by the top freshman award in 2021. 

Where does Team Nebraska stand in the BIG Ten Volleyball Championship?

The second-highest scorer in the tournament after Wisconsin’s team, Nebraska, will be hosting Michigan State this Friday. Meanwhile, the native of Nebraska, Papillion, also had an impressive 24 fills while two hitting errors in a record of 48 swings. Thus, Cornhuskers hold a record of 15-0 with a 6-0 mark in the Big Ten Volleyball tournament.

Although Wisconsin holds the top spot on the list, both teams remain equally undefeated and have a 15-0 mark. However, the only difference between the two teams is the match score. Nonetheless, Nebraska still has a chance to score more and secure a top place on the chart in the upcoming matches. 

Indeed, Nebraska’s key player, Lindsay Krause, is among the best junior players on the court. In addition, her exceptional gameplay and continuous award-winning prove that she will have a bright future and be among the top volleyball players in the future. However, since she is playing for Nebraska’s team in the Big Ten Volleyball tournament, the major question is, will she and her team be able to defeat the score set by Wisconsin?
