The Minnesota volleyball team will be looking for some redemption this weekend at the Sports Pavilion, as it takes on Michigan on Friday at 7 p.m. and Ohio State on Sunday at 1 p.m.

“We want to get Michigan in our home gym where we’re more in our element,” senior setter Rachel Hartmann said. “We had a good weekend last weekend, and we’re ready.”

By ready, she means ready for a chance to even the record between the two teams this season, as the Gophers (22-6 overall, 12-4 Big Ten) were swept at Michigan earlier this season to begin their only losing streak of the year.

“When you go to Michigan, the atmosphere to play is kind of hard,” senior outside hitter Kyla Roehrig said. “The floor we play on is over a swimming pool, so it’s really hollow underneath you. I think we’ll be more prepared for them and more comfortable here.”

Sophomore outside hitter Brook Dieter seemed to be the only player to have a good match at Michigan, collecting 19 kills and hitting .320 while the rest of her team hit .017.

“We didn’t play very well there,” coach Mike Hebert said. “They served us very well, and our passing broke down. It’s not like us to get surgically carved up like that. We’ll have to fix that, and we’ll have to do a better job of blocking. They were a step ahead of us all night.”

Michigan (22-6, 10-6) is 13-1 at home this season, but just 5-5 on the road . Ohio State (11-17, 2-14) has struggled in each environment equally.

The Buckeyes’ only wins this season have come against Northwestern, and they have yet to take any other conference team to five sets
