- Before an emotional Mikaela Foecke made her way to the post-match press conference, she took a moment to give John Cook a hug and told him "best four years ever." Those 4 years included 124 wins, 4 Final Fours, 2 national titles and a runner-up finish. Not too shabby. #Huskers
- "Husker nation is really, really proud right now." - John Cook, speaking for the entire fan base.
- Wisconsin coach Kelly Sheffield: "Ran into just an unbelievable defensive team." Said Nebraska made some defensive plays that nobody else in the country could have made. #Huskers
- “It’s time to show the world who Chucky Hepburn is. I’m a bucket-getter, one of the best point guards in the country, and I stand by that.”
00:00 - Here's a stat for you, courtesy of Nebraska's post-match notes: Tonight's crowd of 18,755 is the largest ever for an NCAA volleyball match. The #Huskers have now been involved in the seven largest volleyball crowds in NCAA history and 10 of the top 11.
- Here's 7'2" 2024 5-star center John Bol from Sunrise Christian Academy sitting court-side during his #Nebrasketball visit.
- It's pretty embarrassing that FOX is moving this incredible volleyball match off FS1 to show the start of a regular season baseball game.
- Just make this clip the entire Top 10 tonight. She gets all the spots.
00:00 - John Cook on Olivia Mauch to @HuskersRadio: "When I was waiting to do TV there, I grabbed her and said 'Livvy, you're such a stud.' She passed great, she served great ... Almost every game she blew it open for us, and then she made some great digs. She had a heck of a night."
- At the 6:20 mark of the 3rd quarter, Milwaukee led 76-60. From that point forward, Brooklyn outscored the Bucks 54-32. Kevin Durant had 31 of that 54. Durant single-handedly nearly outscored the entire Bucks team over the last 18 minutes of game time.
- The son of a former Husker kicker played QB for Westside and threw a touchdown tonight while the son of a former Husker QB played kicker for Elkhorn South and hit a game-winner.
