The Wisconsin women’s volleyball team was able to take down Penn State in the NCAA Regional Semifinals on Thursday night, defeating the Nittany Lions 3-1. The Badgers are back in the Elite 8 where they fell to Pittsburgh last season.
Kelly Sheffield’s squad got their payback against Penn State after falling to their Big Ten foes 3-1 on the road Nov. 11.
The Badgers were able to take the first set handily 25-11, setting the tone early. The second set was a marathon 30-28 loss for Wisconsin, but they came back to win the next two 25-12 and 25-18.
Wisconsin will face Oregon at the UW Field House on Saturday night. The Ducks were able to sweep Purdue on their way to Regional Finals versus the Badgers.
“Wisconsin advances to the Elite Eight.”
