Terps Swept By No. 1 Nebraska

LINCOLN, NE -- The Terps fell in three sets (16-25, 9-25, 19-25) to No. 1 Nebraska on Saturday evening in Lincoln. 

Laila Ivey led the Terps with six kills while Anastasia Russ chipped in four kills and four blocks. Laila Ricks finished second with five kills and a team-best .417 hitting percentage. Sydney Dowler's 15 assists were a team-high and she added 11 digs, marking the fifth time she's recorded double digit digs this year. Milan Gomillion also notched 11 digs to extend her double-digit digs streak to 12 consecutive matches. 

Despite trailing by two sets, the Terps stood strong in the final frame and showed their resiliency with a trio of 4-1 runs to get within 17-18 late, making the final frame the most competitive one. 

The loss snapped the Terps' four-game road win streak and dropped them to 13-11 overall and 4-8 in Big Ten play. Nebraska is now 19-2 and 11, respectively. Tonight also marked the first time Maryland faced a No. 1 team since 2017.
