OMAHA, Neb. — Penn State coach Russ Rose says he knows Omaha is one of the few places that can generate a big turnout for the NCAA women's volleyball final four. But he hopes Omaha is never named permanent host.

Rose's unbeaten Nittany Lions dealt with a home team in Nebraska Thursday night and an NCAA-record crowd of 17,430. Penn State prevailed in five sets at the Qwest Center.

He said Friday his ears were still ringing.

Rose says that if Omaha had the event every year, it would give the Huskers an unfair recruiting advantage.

Rose also says he would like the event at warm-weather sites. Noting the ice storm that struck Thursday night, Rose says he would like to go outside and do something other than spend 20 minutes scraping his windshield.
