The Nebraska volleyball team remained atop the AVCA poll after sweeping a pair of matches during the weekend trip to UC-Irvine.
The Huskers received 43 first place votes.
Nebraska coach John Cook doesn't have a vote in the poll, but would put his team 10th.
"We look at my poll," Cook said. "We may have moved up to 10th in my poll this week. We don't really talk about it or focus on it. Our players are mature enough to understand.
"I talk to them about that every week. Whenever that poll comes out, whenever I get the email, I tell them the poll came out today, but here's our poll."
