Harper Murray opened up about how to compete against tough opponents

Following the Nebraska volleyball team's game against Oregon, Harper Murray and other team members sat for a press conference. Here, they emphasized the factors that the Huskers need to work on to compete against tough teams like Oregon. Revealing how the team manages to communicate during the match and maintain their game, Murray said: (2:24 onwards)

"I think have to trust our training because, you know, at the end of the day, we know how to pass the ball and coming into the gym, we get used to our own serves and we get used to passing each other's serves. So when we face a team like Oregon and they have that heavy of arms and that good of serves, I think it's just a mindset switch for us and we have to figure out how to fight it high in the middle cuz like I said at the end of the day we know how to pass the volleyball." "So it's just a matter of can we do it together? Can we communicate early and can we see those balls that are going out and take those to our advantage?" Harper Murray added.

The Nebraska Cornhuskers and Harper Murray will next be seen competing against Illinois on November 6 at the Bob Devaney Sports Center.
