Opposition guide
Omaha made it two wins from two on Saturday evening — beating Madison 3-1 at Wisconsin Field House.
That result followed their sweep of Houston on Matchday 1, continuing a perfect start for Austin’s next opponents.
They are coached by Suzie Fritz, who was in charge of Kansas State for 25 years before switching to become Associate Head Coach at Arkansas.
She has taken nationally-ranked teams to 18 NCAA tournament appearances over her 30-year career, so will be hoping to replicate that success with Omaha this season.
Anything else to know?
Austin are bidding to get back to winning ways after suffering a 3-1 defeat to Atlanta last time out.
The Texans have only won one of their three league matches so far, sweeping Madison in their second outing of the campaign.
Madi will be looking to help Marco Bonitta’s team improve their form in Ohama, then, as she aims to build on her season total of 37 points and 29 kills across two appearances to date.
