The Huskers are playing live on the U$C stream ... I think. It looks like someone's trying to hide behind the trees but it works.

[Mavric]

They switched to another court that you can actually see a little better.

 

Looks like Alexa Strange and Kelsey Robinson are playing now.

 

Kind of tough to follow without a scoreboard.

One season in the books. Keep up the good work, ladies.
