The 2006 womens college volleyball champions are your Nebraska Cornhuskers.

The Huskers defeated the Stanford Cardinal 3 games to 1 in front of 17,209 fans (195 more than Thursday night) to clinch the programs 3rd national title.

The question now is, can they do it again next year?  For the first time in NCAA history a womens college volleyball team will have the last two players of the year on a team.  This year, Sarah Pavan and last year Christina Houghtelling who sat out this year with an injury.

The other question is, does Omaha deserve to host the national championship every year?

Omaha has proved that they can host the big college events (College World Series) and no volleyball match has ever had more attendance than the finals.  But, does it belong permanently in Omaha?
