The UNI volleyball team swept Evansville last night to win it's 9th straight match (and they've won 11 of their last 12). And it was their 6th sweep in a row. Definitely good play going down the stretch.
Also last night, Creighton beat Missouri State, which means UNI is tied with the Bears for 3rd place in the MVC, and is only trailing the second place Blue Jays by half a match.
The Panthers play at Southern Illinois tonight, and then return home next weekend for the final pair of regular season matches that will be crucial for MVC tournament seeding, as they host Wichita State and MO State.
UNI has clinched a spot in the MVC tournament, which takes the top 6 teams, but with a good finish they could possibly get a top 2 seed, which would mean a 1st round bye (and thus only having to play one match on that Saturday instead of two).
So let's get out to the McLeod next weekend and cheer on another great Panther team.
