Nebraska Cornhuskers captain Lexi Rodriguez sheds light on her team's clash against Wisconsin Badgers
Lexi Rodriguez, a fourth-year senior in the team and co-captain alongside Merritt Beason recently shed light on her team's thought process before the much-anticipated matchup.
In a press conference, she stated that the Cornhuskers are prepared for a tough match and that preparations for the same are also in full flow. Rodriguez also mentioned that their last victory against the Badgers doesn't hide the fact that they are a good opponent.
The libero said (via Husker Online at 3:48):
"We’re really preparing for another hard matchup. Just because we beat them the first time doesn’t mean that it’s like we’re going to do it again. It’s gonna be a battle. They’re a great team…they’re going to make adjustments from last game so we got to be prepared."
Rodriguez joined the Nebraska Cornhuskers in 2021 and since then has been a prominent member of the team. She was also named the AVCA Freshmen of the Year in her debut year. Her side's defeat to the Texas Longhorns in the NCAA Women's Volleyball Championships final last season seems to have added fuel to their fire as they aim to go the extra mile in all competitions.
