> Iowa Tweet reporting our offering is from Huskers original offer; Huskers made her top Seven, but she chose AZ State. It's a little odd that Ava's latest tweet did not mention the Huskers as being in touch with her After she de-committed fm AZ State. (Something must have happened.)

Odd Kansas didn't make her original 'cut' (they must have offered), maybe she has decided she'd rather stay closer to home. Also odd she hasn't mentioned us on her 'contact' list.

I don't know whether we've contacted Ava Jones, or not, since she de committed fm Az State.

Shavon Shields!!!

WBB Recruiting seems to be off to a good start, with 2023 Logan Nissley (Bismarck ND) and 2023 Natalie Potts (O'falllon, MO). In addition to dual-sport Maggie Mendelson, already on campus for 2022, the Volleyball team just picked up a commitment from the 2024 No. 1 national recruit, Skyler, Pierce (Lenexa, KS), who also plays Basketball. https://huskerextra.com/news/volleyball/nebraska-volleyball-gets-commit-from-no-1-national-recruit-skyler-pierce/article_e1f163b2-9afb-56b2-b2b0-6bb7b41ffb70.html?utm_source=huskerextra.com&utm_campaign=%2Fnewsletter-templates%2Fnews-alert&utm_medium=PostUp&utm_content=97e9280c90d0dc10aa32262edc1c17a708e3ebdc

Happy Father's Day Everyone!!! From Your WBB Team!

Just to follow-up!

No, I hadn't noticed. Maybe because Julia Orzol, Wisconsin was the B1G Volleyball FOY for 2021. (Lexi Rodriguez & Lindsay Krause were named to the All-Freshman Team) But; Lexi Rodriguez Was the AVCA Freshman of the Year - an even more prestigious honor. https://huskers.com/news/2021/12/17/volleyball-rodriguez-named-avca-freshman-of-the-year.aspx Thanks HUD!

How About; New, Improved Version!

Here is an interview with new Asst Coach Jessica Keller on Sports Nighty; about 10 minutes (starting about the 1:22:30 mark through about 1:32:00). The hosts indicated Coach Amy Williams was looking particularly for a good 'cultural' fit with the team, program and coaches. I think they've fit the bill in that regard. The Interview didn't discuss specific duties or delineation of responsibilities, though it may be a little too soon yet, as practice is just starting, and all the players have not returned to Lincoln yet. I get the feeling responsibilities are something of a work in progress. As @Redhacsaid it would be nice to know more regarding coaching assignments; but, I'm not sure we'll ever know much more than what we already do. https://huskers.com/watch/?Archive=7462&type=Archive

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KENNADI. (Well, maybe not the Bubbly. )
