"New journey from here"- Andi Jackson gets real about Nebraska volleyball team's 'clean slate' mindset ahead of NCAA Championships

Nebraska Volleyball's Andi Jackson revealed that the Huskers would move forward with the 'clean slate' mindset after their Big Ten title win.

Andi Jackson has been a promising middle blocker since her freshman year in 2023. She received a Big Ten Freshman of the Week honor and continued her excellence in 2024. Jackson posted a career-high 19 kills, received recognition, and was an integral part of the team in the NCAA semifinals.

In her junior season this year, Jackson earned the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week honor for one of her weekend performances, and continues to display her skills as a critical offensive threat and blocker. In her last home match of the 2025 regular season, Jackson recorded eight kills on 10 attempts and helped her team clock a dominant win over Ohio State.

Now headed to the NCAA Championships, the middle blocker who earned the highest single-season hit percentage in Big Ten history, revealed the team's 'clean slate' mindset and how they would consider their road to the Nationals a fresh journey.

"It's 00 now. So everything we've done, the Big 10 season, it's over now and preseason obviously has been over. So new record, clean slate, every team is a brand new team and it's a new journey from here on out, and we know that. So we're just going to go back into the gym come tomorrow and get to work again and stay locked in on what's ahead," she said in a press conference.

Nebraska Volleyball recorded a perfect 20-0 in conference play, winning its 37th all-time conference title.

Nebraska Volleyball, the top-ranked college program this season, dropped just a few sets to maintain an undefeated streak. After its win over the Iowa Hawkeyes, which earned the team the Big Ten title virtually, Andi Jackson talked about how the team's consistency with the ball helped them shine on the court.

"I just think how consistent our ball control was. We talked about it before the game is, we've worked really this weekend, this whole season. And so we were going to go out and we were going to play Nebraska Volleyball and simply like as simple as it is, it's just ball control and controlling the things that we know how to control," she said.
