Three Husker freshmen - Ally Batenhorst, Lindsay Krause and Lexi Rodriguez - are among the 12 members of Team USA competing at the FIVB U20 World Championship in Europe this month.

The United States finished round-robin pool play with a 3-0 record, defeating Russia on Friday, Thailand on Saturday and Turkey on Sunday to win Pool C. Team USA and the other pool winners and runners-up will play another round of pool play in the Netherlands July 13-15. The pool standings will determine in which semifinals the teams will compete. 

The grand final will take place July 18. On the same day, the bronze medal match and all the other classification matches will be played to determine the final standings.
