Schedule Notes

VERT Challenge Goes to Florida • The VERT Challenge is in its third year of a four-year cycle, and this year’s tournament will be hosted by Florida. The Huskers will host the tournament in 2018. • Nebraska will face Oregon and Florida this season, marking the first time it won’t play Texas in the tournament. • The Huskers are 3-1 all-time in the VERT Challenge. Nebraska beat Oregon, 3-2, in 2015 in Austin, Texas. Last year, the Huskers beat the Gators, 3-1, in Eugene, Oregon. Homecoming for Hunter • Nebraska will play in the Omaha Showcase, hosted by UNO, Sept. 15-16 at Baxter Arena. It will be a homecoming of sorts for Husker setter Kelly Hunter, who grew up in Papillion, just a few minutes down the road from the UNO campus. • Nebraska’s match against Omaha will be the first against the Mavericks since their transition to Division I began in 2011. NU is 15-1 all-time against the Mavs, but they haven’t met since 1990. The Huskers also will face Kansas State and Northern Iowa that weekend. Huskers and Bruins to Play Two • Instead of hosting a second tournament this season, Nebraska will play UCLA at the Devaney Center on back-to-back nights on Sept. 8-9. • Nebraska and UCLA were regular opponents from 20002012, playing eight times including seven meetings in John Cook’s first 10 seasons at Nebraska. But the teams will end a five-year break when they meet this September. • The Huskers are 10-5 all-time against UCLA and 6-2 in the Cook era. Big Ten Keeps On Ticking • The Big Ten was hands-down the toughest conference in 2016 with eight NCAA Tournament teams, two NCAA semifinalists (Nebraska and Minnesota) and six teams in an NCAA regional. • Nebraska’s Big Ten schedule will again be 20 matches with home-and-home meetings with seven teams and six single plays. The Huskers’ single plays in 2017 are Penn State (away), Minnesota (home), Illinois (home), Michigan (away), Indiana (home) and Ohio State (away). • Of the six Big Ten teams to make a regional in 2016, the Huskers will play only one twice (Wisconsin). • Nebraska will run the gauntlet right away in the Big Ten schedule. The Huskers will play five of their first seven matches against teams that advanced to an NCAA regional last year. In the first month of the Big Ten season, NU will visit Penn State and Wisconsin, and will host Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan State. • Conversely, the Huskers’ final eight matches of the season will be against Big Ten opponents that combined to go 44-116 (.275) in conference play last season. Six of the Huskers’ last eight opponents missed the NCAA Tournament in 2016. NCAA Tournament Format Stays the Same • For the second straight year, the top 16 seeds will host the NCAA Tournament first and second rounds, and the top remaining seed in each quadrant of the bracket after the second round will have the chance to host one of the four regionals. • The Huskers were one of the four teams to host a regional in 2016, as they beat Penn State and Washington to advance to the NCAA semifinals for the second straight year. • The 2017 NCAA Championship will be played Dec. 14-16 at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Missouri. It will be the second appearance of the finals in Kansas City, as UMKC hosted the finals in 2010. Tickets are on sale at www.sprintcenter.com.

NEBRASKA VOLLEYBALL • FOUR-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

Big Ten Conference Known as one of intercollegiate sports’ most successful undertakings, the Big Ten is home to a lineage of legendary names and an ongoing tradition of developing strong leaders. Even in its infancy, the conference established itself as the preeminent collection of institutions in the nation, where the pursuit of academic excellence prevailed as the definitive goal. The history of the Big Ten traces back more than 120 years to the Palmer House hotel in Chicago, where on Jan. 11, 1895, then-Purdue James E. Delany president James H. Smart and leaders from the University of Chicago, Commissioner University of Illinois, University of Michigan, University of Minnesota, Northwestern University and University of Wisconsin set out to organize and develop principles for the regulation of intercollegiate athletics. At that meeting, a blueprint for the administration of college athletics under the direction of appointed faculty representatives was outlined. The presidents’ first known action “restricted eligibility for athletics to bonafide, full-time students who were not delinquent in their studies.” That important legislation, along with other legislation that would follow in the coming years, served as the primary building block for intercollegiate athletics. On Feb. 8, 1896, one faculty member from each of those seven universities met at the same Palmer House and officially established the mechanics of the conference, which was officially incorporated as the “Intercollegiate Conference Athletic Association” in 1905. Indiana University and the State University of Iowa became the eighth and ninth members in 1899. In 1908, Michigan briefly withdrew its membership, and in 1912 Ohio State University joined the conference, bringing its membership total back to nine. Upon Michigan’s return in 1917, the conference was first referred to as the “Big Ten” by media members, and that name was eventually incorporated in 1987. As the 1900s opened, faculty representatives established rules for intercollegiate athletics that were novel for the time. As early as 1904, the faculty approved legislation that required eligible athletes to meet entrance requirements and to have completed a full year’s work, along with having one year of residence. In 1901, the first Big Ten Championship event was staged when the outdoor track and field championships were held at the University of Chicago. The debut event marked what is now a staple of conference competition. Today, the Big Ten sponsors 28 official sports, 14 for men and 14 for women, including the addition of men’s ice hockey and men’s and women’s lacrosse over the last three years. Big Ten schools compete in a total of 42 sports, furthering the conference’s commitment to broad-based programming and providing more participation opportunities than any conference in the country. One of the conference’s proudest traditions began in 1902 when Michigan took on Stanford in the Rose Bowl, the nation’s first bowl game. Big Ten teams only appeared in Pasadena twice before the conference signed an exclusive contract with the Tournament of Roses in 1946, making it the first bowl game with permanent conference affiliations. But Michigan’s appearance in 1902 cultivated a relationship that has endured for more than a century. In January 2014, Michigan State defeated Stanford in the 100th Rose Bowl Game. Coupling the academic goals set forth by the leaders of the charter members of the conference and their steadfast commitment to athletics, the conference instituted the Big Ten Medal of Honor in 1915. It is awarded annually by each conference institution to a student of the graduating class who has attained the greatest proficiency in scholarship and athletics. It is the most prestigious honor a student competing in Big Ten athletics can receive. In 1922, Major John L. Griffith became the conference’s first “Commissioner of Athletics.” Griffith was the first of five men to assume the role of commissioner in the conference’s history, followed by Kenneth L. “Tug” Wilson in 1945, Bill Reed in 1961, Wayne Duke in 1971 and current commissioner James E. Delany in 1989. After nearly 30 years with 10 members, the conference consolidated to nine schools when the University of Chicago formally withdrew its membership in 1946. Michigan State College (now Michigan State University) was added to the Big Ten three years later, bringing the number of affiliated conference schools to 10 once again. In 1955, the Big Ten formulated a revenue-sharing model designed to pool all football television rights of its members and share those proceeds equally. The conference and its members continue to utilize a revenue-sharing model, dividing media rights, bowl payouts and other profits among all conference institutions. While academics have always played an integral role in the conference, presidents of the Big Ten member institutions formalized the primacy of academics with the establishment of the Big Ten Academic Alliance (formerly the Committee on Institutional Cooperation) in 1958. The Big Ten Academic Alliance is an academic consortium of all Big Ten universities. In 2014, the schools currently constituting the Big Ten Academic Alliance produced over $10 billion in funded research, $5 billion more than any other conference. In one of Duke’s first actions as commissioner, he oversaw the adoption of the Big Ten Advisory Commission in 1972, designed to study conference programs and make suggestions which would further Big Ten objectives. The Advisory Commission enlists former students that competed in Big Ten athletics to serve as liaisons to the NCAA’s Diversity and Inclusion Department, the Big

Ten Student-Athlete Advisory Commission and other organizations. In 1981, the conference presidents and chancellors endorsed a proposal that enabled universities to affiliate their women’s intercollegiate programs with the conference, and the first conference championships for women were staged that fall. The Big Ten was the first conference to voluntarily adopt male and female participation goals after launching its Gender Equity Action Plan in 1992. In December of 1989, the conference agreed in principle to invite Pennsylvania State University for membership. On June 4, 1990, the Council of Presidents officially voted to integrate Penn State into the conference, giving the Big Ten 11 members. In 2004, the Big Ten implemented a pilot program of instant replay for college football. Following the season, the conference forwarded replay proposals to the NCAA regarding the future use of instant replay, where it approved country-wide testing in 2005. In 2006, the NCAA approved the use of instant replay for all conferences. In 2006, Delany announced the creation of the first conference-owned television network, a 20-year agreement with FOX Networks to create what would become the Big Ten Network (BTN). Launched on Aug. 30, 2007, BTN now produces more than 1,000 events across all platforms each year. BTN is in more than 60 million homes in the U.S. and Canada via the nation’s major cable, satellite and telco providers and more than 300 additional cable operators across the country. BTN2Go is the digital extension of BTN, delivering live and on-demand programming to computers, smartphones and tablets and also is accessible outside the U.S., Canada and the Caribbean via BTN2Go International. On June 11, 2010, the Big Ten Council of Presidents/Chancellors (COP/C) approved a formal membership application by the University of Nebraska, expanding the conference to 12 institutions. Nebraska officially joined the Big Ten on July 1, 2011. The conference expanded its footprint further in 2012 when the COP/C approved formal membership applications from the University of Maryland and Rutgers on November 19 and 20, respectively. Maryland and Rutgers became official Big Ten members on July 1, 2014, giving the conference almost 9,500 students participating in intercollegiate athletics and more than 11,000 participation opportunities on 350 teams. Since opening in the fall of 2013, the Big Ten conference center has hosted more than 300 meetings annually for member institutions, Big Ten Academic Alliance (formerly CIC) related committees and coaches groups. The headquarters also features an interactive digital museum - the Big Ten Experience – which opened to the public on June 7, 2014, and brings the conference’s storied academic and athletic history to life. For more information on the Big Ten Experience, go to bigten.org. In June 2014, the Big Ten opened a second office in New York City, featuring both office and meeting space in Midtown Manhattan. Big Ten staff members are based in the New York City office to provide expanded coverage and service, while other conference and institutional administrators utilize the space as necessary when conducting business on the East Coast.

COACHES

Coach Cook’s Philosophy: Dream Big

When John Cook took over the reins of the Nebraska volleyball program in 2000, the challenge facing him was daunting. Cook replaced one of the sport’s legendary coaches in Terry Pettit, who won 694 matches and guided the Huskers to 18 consecutive NCAA appearances and six national semifinals. Cook, who left an emerging power in Wisconsin to guide the tradition-rich Husker program, had his own vision for Nebraska volleyball. He saw a program that had even more potential to grow. His goals included consistently selling out home matches at the NU Coliseum, expanding the media exposure for his program and most importantly, continuing the tradition of athletic and academic excellence started by Pettit nearly a quarter of a century earlier. His vision catapulted the program to a new phase in 2013, as the Devaney Center underwent a $20 million renovation and became the new home for Nebraska volleyball. Moving to the Devaney Center increased the capacity crowd for Nebraska volleyball matches from 4,125 at the Coliseum to nearly 8,000 in addition to 400 standing-room-only tickets. In addition, five suites that give a private and expansive view of the action were built on the south side of the building and student seating was drastically increased. Cook’s vision is for the Huskers to remain at the forefront of college volleyball to enhance the sport at both the local and national levels. The Huskers reached the pinnacle of the sport once again in 2015, capturing their fourth NCAA Championship in front of an NCAA-record crowd of 17,561 at the CenturyLink Center in Omaha. Nebraska’s magical 16-match win streak to end the season culminated with Cook’s third championship team at Nebraska and first since 2006. And it came in front of the hometown crowd again, just as it did in 2006. The fan support continues to be unrivaled in the sport, as the Huskers have sold out 219 consecutive regular-season matches since 2001, the longest sellout streak in NCAA women’s athletics. Since the move to the Devaney Center in 2013, the Huskers have led the nation in attendance every season. Cook saw the long-range potential of building the audience across the state. He also believed Nebraska could shine by hosting the sport’s championship in the largest setting college volleyball had ever seen. When others saw risks, Cook saw opportunities. In 2006, Cook’s dream was realized, as Husker Nation had an opportunity to see Nebraska raise the bar in college volleyball. From record-setting, sold-out crowds at the Qwest Center Omaha, to a team that maximized its potential in winning the school’s third national title, the Huskers enjoyed a remarkable season. The Huskers entered the 2006 campaign with many questions, as they were forced to replace three AllAmericans, including AVCA National Player-of-the-Year Christina Houghtelling. With four first-year starters on the court, including freshmen at setter and middle blocker, and sky-high expectations with the NCAA Championships in Omaha for the first time, 2006 shaped up to be Cook’s toughest coaching job to date. Nebraska took on all challenges head-on, going 33-1 and becoming only the third team in NCAA history to be ranked No. 1 the entire season. The Huskers went on the road and overcame a 2-0 deficit to defeat Minnesota to reach the national semifinals, marking the first time that Nebraska had won a regional outside the state. That victory set the stage for a watershed moment in college volleyball. Behind sellout crowds of over 17,000, the Huskers captured the school’s third national title with victories over No. 4 UCLA and No. 2 Stanford. Four players earned AVCA All-America honors, including Sarah Pavan, who became NU’s first HondaBroderick Cup winner. Two years later, the NCAA Championships returned to Omaha with another Husker team taking center stage. A then-all-time NCAA attendance record of 17,430 traveled through a winter storm to witness one of the greatest matches in Nebraska’s illustrious history. After dropping the first two sets to No. 1 Penn State, Nebraska fought back, winning the next two sets to hand the Nittany Lions their only set losses of the 2008 season. Although the Huskers were unable to complete the comeback, the performance symbolized a never-say-quit attitude that fueled the team’s success. Despite losing a pair of performers to season-ending injuries, the Huskers went 31-3 and won their fifth consecutive conference title. At the Seattle Regional, the Huskers overcame a 2-0 deficit to send the match to a fifth set and trailed 9-3 in the fifth set before regrouping and earning the school’s 11th trip to the NCAA semifinals. For the third time, the final four returned to Omaha in 2015. And once again, the Huskers made good on their goal to get to Omaha. After home losses to Minnesota and Wisconsin in October, the Huskers dialed in and did not lose a match again in 2015. In fact, only one of the Huskers’ final 16 wins went five sets, and Nebraska did not need five sets to win any NCAA Tournament match for the first time during a championship run. After opening-round wins against Harvard and Wichita State, Nebraska avenged its 2014 regional final loss to BYU by sweeping the Cougars in the Lexington (Kentucky) Regional. The Huskers then knocked off top-ranked Washington, 3-1, in the regional final to reach their destination: Omaha. But the job wasn’t done, as the Huskers turned their goal toward winning the national title for the first time since 2006. Nebraska blew past Kansas, 3-1, in the NCAA semifinal to set up a winner-take-all match against Texas. The inspired Huskers played their best match of the season to sweep the Longhorns. The attendance for both NU matches (17,551 against Kansas and 17,651 against Texas) set NCAA all-time records, breaking the records set in Omaha in 2008. Kadie Rolfzen was a first-team AVCA All-American, while Amber Rolfzen and Justine Wong-Orantes were second-and-third team selections, respectively. The Rolfzen twins were both All-Big Ten honorees, while Wong-Orantes was named the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year after a sparkling season at libero.

“ What sets John Cook apart from other exceptional coaches is the effort

he has made in trying to make women’s volleyball a premier collegiate sport. He has done this by promoting the sport on television, leading the country in attendance, by hosting regional and national NCAA events, by encouraging his peers to do everything possible to create an atmosphere that showcases women’s volleyball.

NEBRASKA VOLLEYBALL • FOUR-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS Consistent excellence has been a hallmark of Cook’s Nebraska squads. Since taking over the program in 2000, Cook has guided the Huskers to three national titles, seven NCAA semifinal appearances, nine Big 12 titles and two Big Ten championships, including 2016 with a league-best 18-2 record. His teams have compiled a 499-65 record, owning the nation’s top winning percentage (.885) during his tenure. Cook has excelled against ranked teams, compiling a 168-52 record. The Huskers have appeared in an NCAA regional 22 times in the last 23 years, including 16 of the last 17 during Cook’s tenure. With Cook at the helm, Nebraska has produced numerous individual honors, including eight U.S. National Team members, five Olympians, a Honda-Broderick Cup winner, three AVCA Division I National Players of the Year, two NCAA Top Ten Award winners, 49 AVCA All-Americans, three CoSIDA Academic All-Americans of the Year, 19 CoSIDA Academic AllAmericans, one Big Ten Player of the Year, six Big 12 Players of the Year and three Big 12 Co-Players of the Year. Husker student-athletes have combined for 40 first-team All-Big 12 awards and 61 academic All-Big 12 certificates. The Huskers have also earned 19 All-Big Ten honors, and 36 academic AllBig Ten accolades. Cook’s accomplishments haven’t gone unnoticed, as he is a two-time AVCA National Coach of the Year, earning the prestigious honor in 2000 and 2005, and a six-time conference coach of the year. Cook received his second career Big Ten Coach-of-the-Year accolade in 2016 after leading the Huskers to the Big Ten title. He is one of only five coaches all-time to be a two-time AVCA Women’s Division I National Coach of the Year and was honored in 2008 by USA Volleyball, receiving its All-Time Great Coach Award. In December, Cook will be inducted into the AVCA Hall of Fame, joining Pettit who was inducted in 2009. Cook has also been instrumental in helping to expand the program’s visibility throughout the state and the Midwest. Nebraska played a regular-season match in North Platte in 2004, and the team has played exhibition matches in Scottsbluff, Ogallala, Wayne, Grand Island, Norfolk and Kearney over the last decade. In addition, Cook’s efforts have helped Nebraska enjoy one of the most extensive multi-media packages in the country, as every match is carried live on a state-wide radio network and nearly every contest is shown either live on television or streamed live on the Internet. “It is a reflection of Nebraska volleyball and the program, and not about one person or one player,” Cook said when accepting the AVCA Coach of the Year Award in 2005. “We’re trying to be a leader in the sport. We’re trying to take risks and dream big, and fortunately I’m surrounded by a lot of people who have that vision. I’m really proud of what we’re doing to try and enhance the sport.” Cook immediately started to create his own legacy after taking over for Pettit. In his first season at the helm, Cook was named the AVCA National Coach of the Year after guiding the Huskers to a 34-0 record and the 2000 national championship. The Huskers, who became just the second team in NCAA history to cap an undefeated season with a national title, were ranked No. 1 in the AVCA/USA Today Top 25 poll for 14 straight weeks. Greichaly Cepero earned AVCA National Player-of-the-Year honors. Three Huskers claimed AVCA All-America certificates, and five Nebraska players were named to the All-Big 12 teams. Laura Pilakowski earned CoSIDA Academic All-America honors, and a conference-best seven Huskers earned academic All-Big 12 recognition. Cook also brings Olympic and championship experience to the Husker staff. As the first assistant coach with the U.S. Men’s National Volleyball team, Cook aided the United States to a bronze medal in the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona. The team’s defensive coordinator, he was also in charge of scouting and supervising the team’s flexibility, strength and conditioning programs. For his Olympic coaching experience, Cook was honored in June of 1993 at the NACDA/USOC Collegiate Coaches Recognition Awards Luncheon. He also 20

served as the head coach of the Women’s National Volleyball Training Team in 2004. During his first tenure at Nebraska (1989-91), the Huskers advanced to the NCAA semifinals two of the three seasons, including a runner-up finish in 1989. Nebraska went 36-0 in conference play, capturing three Big Eight Conference titles. During that time, he served as Pettit’s recruiting coordinator, chief scout and strength and conditioning coordinator. Cook was also the liaison with the academic advising center. In the U.S. Olympic Festival competition, Cook served as head coach of the bronze medal-winning North team in 1989 and was also an assistant coach with the third-place West team in 1987. A co-founder of the San Diego Volleyball Club, Cook served as a coach with the club from 1986 to 1988. The club won two Southern California Regional Championships and finished among the final four teams twice in the USVBA Junior Olympics for girls 18 and under. Cook also served as the head assistant coach at the University of California-San Diego from 1983 to 1984, where he aided the Tritons to an NCAA Division III national championship in 1984 and a second-place national finish in 1983. Cook’s coaching credentials also include leading

Francis Parker High School in San Diego to two California state championships. During his six-year coaching stint from 1981 to 1988, he had an overall record of 162-18, including a 90-match winning streak. A well-known speaker on volleyball skills, Cook travels around the nation participating in clinics. During his stay at Wisconsin, he served as the host of the Badger Coaching Symposium every spring. A graduate of the University of San Diego, Cook earned his bachelor’s degree in history in 1979. He completed his master’s degree in teaching and coaching effectiveness from San Diego State in 1991. Cook and his wife, Wendy, a former two-time All-America setter at San Diego State, are the parents of two children, Lauren and Taylor. Lauren completed her senior season at Nebraska in 2012 and is now a color analyst on Nebraska volleyball radio broadcasts.

COACHES

Q&A With Coach Cook

What is your coaching philosophy? There are four things that come to mind. No. 1, I see myself as a teacher. It was always my dream to be a teacher, and coaching is teaching. No. 2, next to my family and my faith, the people involved with Nebraska volleyball are the most important thing in my life. Third we like to recruit great athletes and are flexible enough to create a system that takes advantage of the strengths of the players in our program, so our players can reach their full potential. How can we make each athlete the best volleyball player they can be? That’s the question we try to answer. Finally, our players are committed to academic excellence and becoming complete student-athletes. What do you enjoy most about coaching at Nebraska? There are two things that make coaching at Nebraska so special. First, it is the passion of the people across the state for our team. There is a love affair between our players and the fans across the state. Second, is that our players are great young women who work hard, make great choices and are excellent students. In both 2006 and 2015, we won an NCAA title, as well as the Life Skills Award for the athletic department. We have a group of people who are committed to giving back to the community and understand that there is more to college life than volleyball. When you are recruiting a potential student-athlete, what are Nebraska’s biggest selling points? I think the best thing for a recruit to do is see our team play. We play at a high level, but what may be most important, is how we play. It’s a very exciting brand of volleyball based on great athletes moving very quickly and transitioning very fast. We’ve always had a reputation of taking great athletes and training them to become exceptional volleyball players. We have a great academic tradition with our academic support staff, the Hewit Center and our Student Life Complex. We lead the nation in academic All-America honors, NCAA Top Ten Award winners and the majority of our players go on to graduate school following their playing careers. I think another important factor is the exposure our program receives. Our goal is to be on the cutting edge. We are one of the only programs in the country that has its own volleyball radio network, and nearly all of our matches are either televised or streamed online. This gives us opportunities to connect with our fans, and has played a major role in our sellout streak. Our school’s rich volleyball tradition over the years also plays an important role in recruiting. In many cases, people know they were meant to be here.

I got an understanding of what it takes to be the best in the world. We’ve tried to implement that at Nebraska and call it Training the Whole Athlete. It just doesn’t mean we are going to make them a great volleyball player. Obviously, we are going to do that and our program’s success reflects that. We are going to train them mentally on how to compete at the highest level and continue on if they elect to do so. It is also about getting them to understand the self-discipline it takes to work in the weight room, understanding their bodies and knowing how to take care of them in areas such as flexibility, recovery and nutrition. Our mission in this program is two-fold. One is prepare them if they want to have a professional career. Second, many of our former players are going into coaching, and they are leaving Nebraska armed with lots of information. If they can go into coaching, they have the ability to make a tremendous impact on the lives of other people with that information. It is a two-fold mission, and we feel that our program has a great understanding and implements it as well as anyone in the country in a college setting. What do you hope student-athletes take from their years with the Nebraska volleyball program? First, we hope they have the opportunity to play professionally. We’ve had countless former players play around the world and that is a testament to their hard work in reaching their playing potential. Another way we measure that is by how many of them go into coaching after they graduate. Over 50 percent of our former players are in the coaching ranks, whether it is at the college, high school or club level. The second thing we want them to understand is the importance of giving back. At Nebraska, our players are viewed by the public and kids in the state with almost a rock star status. What we hope they learned at Nebraska is to use that platform to create a positive message and take that lesson throughout their lives.

What do you look for in a recruit? Academically we have a tradition of great student-athletes. Because the program’s emphasis is on being accountable, the program attracts people who have already been successful in the classroom. But we’ve also taken some people who were merely good students and helped them become great students. In addition to looking for great student-athletes, the players we attract to Nebraska are ones who not only have the athletic ability to be successful, but also are highly competitive. They don’t shy away from challenges, whether it is in practices or in matches because they know it will allow them to reach their full potential as a player. We are also in a unique situation at Nebraska where our student-athletes have a platform to make a difference in people’s lives. We look for people who are going to embrace that opportunity and give back to the community. How does Nebraska help develop players for their post-collegiate careers? At Nebraska, we believe that the program we put in place gives our players a chance to play beyond their college career. When I was with the men’s national team for the 1992 Olympics,

Hildebrand was in charge of blocking and defense his first two seasons and worked primarily with the offense in 2010. He joined the staff as a full-time assistant in 2013, and in his first year he helped Long Beach State reach the MPSF finals for the first time since his senior campaign in 2006. The Beach registered its best season in five years, finishing with a 24-8 overall record.

Assistant Coach / 1st Season / Nebraska (2012)

Kayla Banwarth joined the Nebraska volleyball coaching staff as an assistant in January 2017. Banwarth completed an illustrious playing career for the Huskers in 2010 before embarking on a professional playing career that saw her win an Olympic bronze medal with the U.S. National Team, as well as an FIVB World Championship.

led the team to gold medals in consecutive Pan American Cups. Also in 2013, she was the runner-up in the Best Digger category at the FIVB World Grand Champions Cup after posting 3.19 digs per set. In her first international competition in 2011, Banwarth helped USA to a bronze medal at the Pan American Games.

Banwarth is relatively new to the coaching profession after finishing her professional career with the U.S. National Team at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro in 2016. A U.S. National Team libero since 2011, Banwarth spent two years as a volunteer assistant coach for the Pepperdine men’s volleyball team. She begins the next chapter of her career back at Nebraska, where she concluded a decorated playing career in 2010.

Banwarth joined the Pepperdine men’s volleyball staff as a volunteer assistant coach in December 2015 and coached for two seasons. In her first season, Pepperdine went 13-11, and she helped lead the Waves’ back line to rank 36th nationally with 7.69 digs per set.

After walking on at Nebraska in 2007, Banwarth became the starting libero midway through her freshman season and remained in that role through 2010, receiving All-Big 12 honorable mention as a junior and senior. She led the Huskers to the NCAA semifinals in 2008 and to three Big 12 titles. She was Nebraska’s all-time career leader in digs with 1,706 until 2016. Banwarth was also a two-time academic All-Big 12 selection and a three-time Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week. Banwarth played professionally overseas in Azerbaijan but focused strictly on the U.S. National Team and coaching at Pepperdine in 2015 and 2016. She was named the Best Receiver at the 2015 NORCECA Championship and helped Team USA win gold there and at the FIVB World Grand Prix in 2016. In 2014 she aided Team USA to the FIVB World Championship, the first gold medal for the U.S. at a major tournament. In 2016 Banwarth anchored the squad at the Olympic Games in Rio, helping the U.S. to the bronze medal.

A native of Dubuque, Iowa, Banwarth attended Wahlert Catholic High School before her Husker career. She graduated from UNL in 2012 with a bachelor’s degree in English. “I really like the fact that while Kayla was training with the U.S. National Team, she found the time to volunteer coach for the Pepperdine men’s volleyball team,” Head Coach John Cook said. “So not only did she play at Nebraska and for Team USA, she gained experience under Karch Kiraly and Marv Dunphy, two of the best coaches in the United States. “Whenever I have a chance to hire a former player to coach at Nebraska volleyball, it’s something I strongly consider because they understand what this program is about. Kayla’s strengths are her journey to Nebraska as a walk-on, having a great career at Nebraska and going on to beat out all the other liberos in the United States to become one of the top liberos in the world. I know Kayla has limited coaching experience at the collegiate level, but her strengths will allow her to develop quickly and take over Dani Busboom Kelly’s role in recruiting and coaching our liberos and passers.”

In 2013 Banwarth was named USA Volleyball’s Female Indoor Most Improved Player of the Year, and in 2012 and 2013 she

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

SHAWN EICHORST Director of Athletics

The University of Nebraska recruited and hired Shawn Eichorst in 2012, and he quickly displayed an incredible passion for the University and its student-athletes as well as the state of Nebraska. As the leader of a tradition-rich athletic program with 24 intercollegiate teams, 600-plus studentathletes and more than 325 full-time employees, Eichorst has relied on a strong value system and a student-centered approach to lead the department. Nebraska’s primary mission is to provide all student-athletes with the resources and support they need to be successful in academics, athletics and life. The core values of Integrity, Trust, Respect, Teamwork and Loyalty serve as the foundation, and the health, safety and welfare of student-athletes and staff are the essence of every decision made at Nebraska. True to his vision and word, since Eichorst arrived in Lincoln, resources and services in every student-athlete support unit have been reviewed, improved and enhanced, including academics, athletic medicine, life skills, nutrition, sports psychology, strength and conditioning, performance and research. Well respected on the national level, Eichorst has been a major player in spearheading the passage of the most comprehensive and progressive football recruiting reform in decades. Serving on the inaugural Division I Football Oversight Committee since 2015 and named co-chair of the NCAA Division I Football Recruiting Ad Hoc Working Group in 2016, Eichorst provides valuable leadership and insight into preserving and enhancing the game of college football. He was the first Director of Athletics from any conference to visit the Big Ten Conference-based Academic Alliance at its Champaign, Illinois, headquarters. The Academic Alliance (formerly known as the Committee on Institutional Cooperation) is a highly successful, academic-based consortium of 15 schools, including all 14 in the Big Ten Conference. Under Eichorst’s direction, Nebraska is leading the Big Ten and the Academic Alliance in several areas, including Digital Humanities and head injury research. He also serves on the Big Ten Conference Program and Budget Review Committee. Eichorst regularly attends Big Ten Joint Council meetings and NCAA Conventions, including the Autonomy Five Conferences and recently provided input on new legislation designed to give students more time to pursue academics, work, internships or additional rest and recovery. On campus, Eichorst is a member of the Chancellor’s Senior Administrative Team. Eichorst continues to aggressively move Nebraska forward with several new initiatives to enhance the student-athlete experience. Beginning in the summer of 2015, Nebraska became the first athletic department in the country to provide laptop computers to every student-athlete and the first to create a data analytics department. Nebraska is one of the first in the Power 5 Conferences to provide all student-athletes four-year, full cost of attendance-based scholarships. Nebraska was also the firstknown department of athletics to create a Post-Eligibility Opportunity (PEO) program, where every Husker letterwinner who graduates and has exhausted their eligibility has an opportunity to pursue an internship, study abroad or enroll in a graduate school program valued at $7,500. Nebraska’s service abroad trip is also unique, with teams of student-athletes and staff serving abroad in each of the past three years, including Guatemala in 2015, the Dominican Republic in 2016 and Nicaragua in 2017. Eichorst is in high demand and has made more than 600 public appearances around the state and country. In 2016 and 2017, Eichorst toured the state with Coach Mike Riley and has visited with fans in 32 Nebraska communities. His monthly radio show and “Connecting on Campus” online column provide opportunities to connect and share the incredible activities, initiatives and accomplishments happening at the greater University and in the department. Under Eichorst’s leadership, Nebraska has extended its nation-leading total of CoSIDA Academic All-Americans to 329 and its nation-best total of NCAA Top Ten Award winners to 17. In 2016-17, 126 student-athletes earned undergraduate or graduate degrees and the Big Ten Conference honored 209 Husker student-athletes with Academic All-Big Ten awards. The 88 percent Graduation Success Rate (GSR) for the Nebraska student-athletes reported in the 2016-17 academic year was the highest GSR ever achieved for the fourth consecutive year. In addition all Nebraska teams achieved an NCAA Academic Performance Rate (APR) of 977 or higher which is the best in school history and marks the third consecutive year that all teams attained an APR better than 950. During Eichorst’s tenure, Nebraska has won three NCAA team Championships, increasing its total to 27. In 2012-13 and in 2014-15, the Nebraska women’s bowling team earned the program’s fourth and fifth NCAA titles, while the Husker volleyball team won the 2015 NCAA Championship, the program’s fourth national title. With three sports winning Big Ten Conference championships in 2016-17, Nebraska now has 297 team conference championships all-time and 1,396 individual conference champions. In 2016-17, the Husker volleyball, women’s gymnastics and baseball programs won Big Ten Championships, while 13 Nebraska teams competed in NCAA postseason action, including bowling, football, volleyball, women’s swimming and diving, wrestling, baseball, men’s and women’s gymnastics, rifle, and men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor track and field. In 2016-17, Nebraska produced 42 All-Americans who won 44 national awards, including 12 first-team honorees. Under Eichorst’s first year of leadership in 2013-14, Nebraska became one of only two NCAA institutions – and the first Big Ten program in history – to qualify for a football bowl game, and advance to NCAA postseason in the major team sports of volleyball, soccer, men’s and women’s basketball, baseball and softball. Additionally, Nebraska was the only institution to win a postseason game in six of those seven sports. COACHES AND STAFF

In 2016-17, top 20 national rankings for average attendance were reached across nine sports: football, volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball, wrestling, soccer, baseball and men’s and women’s gymnastics. A tribute to loyal Husker fans, two sports lead the nation with consecutive home sellout streaks. Football has 354 consecutive sellouts and volleyball has 219 consecutive regular-season sellouts. Under Eichorst’s leadership, Nebraska continues to focus on improving its facilities and the gameday experience at all athletic venues. In August of 2015, Hibner Stadium and Barbara Hibner Field for soccer and the Sid and Hazel Dillon Tennis Center were completed. In 2015, a new center-hung video board and sound system in the Devaney Center improved the game-day experience for volleyball, wrestling and men’s and women’s gymnastics. In 2014, Memorial Stadium added the largest wireless network system at a college football stadium in history, along with a state-of-the-art sound system. In 2017, Memorial Stadium will feature new video screens and ribbon boards. The biggest change will be the addition of wrap-around video boards on the northeast and northwest towers. The components of the North Stadium video board – installed in 2006 – will also improve. The current board will not change in size but the resolution will tighten from 20-millimeter to 10-millimeter pixels, creating a clearer, crisper picture that will match the state-of-the-art sound system that was updated in 2014. In the summer of 2013, Memorial Stadium expansion added the innovative Nebraska Athletic Performance Laboratory (NAPL) inside East Stadium next to the Center for Brain, Biology and Behavior (CB3). That same year, Nebraska’s men’s and women’s basketball teams became the primary tenants of the newly constructed Pinnacle Bank Arena, and the renovated Devaney Center became the home for Husker volleyball, wrestling and the men’s and women’s gymnastics programs. Eichorst came to Nebraska after serving as Director of Athletics at Miami in 2011 and 2012. He hired legendary men’s basketball coach Jim Larrañaga, who led Miami to the NIT Second Round in his first season and ACC regular-season and tournament titles as well and the NCAA Sweet 16 in his second. The women’s basketball, women’s tennis, women’s soccer, volleyball and baseball teams also made significant NCAA postseason accomplishments. Before heading to Miami, Eichorst was the Deputy Athletics Director at Wisconsin. He was the Chief Operating Officer and oversaw the department’s daily operations, as well as the men’s basketball program under the direction of Director of Athletics, Hall of Fame Football Coach and former Husker Barry Alvarez. From 2004 to 2006, Eichorst served as the Senior Associate Athletics Director for Administration at South Carolina, overseeing the department’s daily operations, as well as the football and baseball programs under legendary coaches Lou Holtz, Steve Spurrier and Ray Tanner, respectively. From 1999 to 2003, Eichorst served as the Director of Athletics at Wisconsin-Whitewater, which produced four top 10-percent finishes in the NACDA Directors Cup, one NCAA team title and two NCAA runner-up finishes. A native of Lone Rock, Wisconsin, Eichorst was an all-conference defensive back, three-time letterwinner and 1990 football team captain for the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater.

NEBRASKA VOLLEYBALL • FOUR-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

Nebraska Volleyball: A Championship Tradition

Nebraska’s club volleyball program in the early 1970s set the foundation for the Huskers’ early successes.

by Mike Babcock A bulletin advertising an opening for the head volleyball coach’s job at Nebraska had been discarded in a wastebasket in the coaches’ office at Louisburg College. Paul Sanderford, the first-year head coach of the women’s basketball team at the North Carolina junior college, retrieved the bulletin from the wastebasket and handed it to Terry Pettit, the school’s head volleyball coach. Without that assist from Sanderford, Pettit, an aspiring English teacher with a background in creative writing and poetry as well as coaching, would not have known about the opening. If he had not known about the opening, he would not have applied. And if he had not applied and been hired, the history of Husker volleyball would have been altered dramatically, because he and Husker volleyball became one and the same. Pettit was the Nebraska volleyball coach from 1977 to 1999 – all but two years of the program’s first 25 years of existence. Pat Sullivan, the Huskers’ first volleyball coach, compiled an 83-21 record in two seasons of competition sanctioned by the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women. Before 1975, Nebraska didn’t sponsor women’s athletic teams. If women wanted to compete, they did so on loosely organized and unfunded club teams. It had been that way since the early 1900s, when a women’s basketball team occasionally competed against teams from outside the University. Basketball was introduced in the university’s physical education classes for sophomore women in 1896, and as was the case with male students, class teams competed against each other. Nebraska’s first All-University women’s team was organized in 1896 and included the best players regardless of class, according to the Nebraska State Journal. The team never lost, which should not be surprising, given how it was chosen and the quality of its intramural competition. The first women’s basketball game played before an audience was part of the University’s sixth annual gymnasium exhibition in the spring of 1897, according to Phyllis Kay Wilke’s “Physical Education for Women at Nebraska University, 1879-1923,” published in Nebraska History in the spring of 1975. Louise Pound seems to have been the driving force in women’s basketball at Nebraska, organizing as well as playing on the earliest teams. She was captain of the first team to play against an opponent from outside the University in March of 1898. Pound, 40

who also was the first All-University tennis champion, scored 11 points in a 15-7 victory against a team from Council Bluffs, Iowa. In April of 1901, the university sponsored a women’s state tournament under Pound’s direction at Grant Memorial Hall. Nebraska was represented by an A team and a B team in a field that included teams from the Omaha YWCA, Lincoln High School and Wahoo High School. Nebraska’s A team won the two-day competition and a month later won a rematch with the Omaha YWCA in Omaha. In November of 1901, Nebraska played a team from the University of Missouri at Grant Hall, “the first intercollegiate match for girls ever played in the west,” according to the Nebraska State Journal. Missouri was no match for its more experienced — and to that point undefeated — opponent, losing 31-4. The Nebraska women did not suffer their first defeat until 1904, when they lost to a team from the University of Minnesota at Minneapolis after opening an abbreviated schedule by shutting out a team from the Lincoln YWCA. The Nebraska women avenged the Minnesota loss two weeks later in Lincoln. The Nebraska women played games against the University

of Minnesota, home-and-home two weeks apart, again in March of 1908, losing both, the second after a five-minute overtime. Before the Minnesota games, Nebraska had defeated Nebraska Wesleyan to finish what was to be its final season with a 1-2 record against outside competition. University women were not allowed to compete in basketball, as well as other sports, only in physical education classes after April 24, 1908. In response to the concerns of faculty members, who considered such activity inappropriate, the University board of regents abolished intercollegiate athletics for women. If not for the passing of Title IX by Congress in 1972, there probably would not be women’s intercollegiate athletics now. Initially, “there wasn’t an embracing of women’s athletics,” Pettit said. “It’s like any civil rights movement almost. It’s tolerated, and you have to educate the public as to what it means. Today if you asked on a ballot if women should have the opportunity to compete in sports, there would be an overwhelming majority of people who would support it. But that wasn’t the case in the 1970s. “One of the things that allowed Nebraska to be successful was that we jumped in with both feet,” Pettit said. “Nebraska decided:

The first Husker volleyball team, coached by Pat Sullivan (far right, back row), set the tone for future teams, compiling a 34-8 record and advancing to the AIAW regional finals in 1975.

2017 NEBRASKA VOLLEYBALL MEDIA GUIDE


PROGRAM HISTORY

Two-time All-American Christy Johnson led the Huskers to their first NCAA title in 1995.

‘Well, if we’re going to do this, let’s do it well.’ Whereas some schools were hesitant to get going, Nebraska was one of the first to offer scholarships. In any endeavor, if you’re among the first, that gives you a tremendous advantage, and you continue to reap the benefits years later.” Under Pettit’s direction, volleyball became to Husker women’s athletics what football is to the Nebraska men’s program. Pettit’s teams advanced to the NCAA Tournament semifinals six times, and his 1995 team won the national championship, defeating Texas in the finals at Amherst, Mass. The 1995 Huskers finished 32-1, with their only loss coming against Stanford in the second match of the season. Senior Allison Weston was the AVCA Co-Player of the Year and among three first-team All-Americans from Nebraska. The others were Christy Johnson and Lisa Reitsma. Weston, a middle blocker, earned first-team All-America honors three times, the first Husker to do so. But Nebraska consistently has been represented on All-America teams since 1980, when Terri Kanouse became the Huskers’ first volleyball All-American, as selected by the AIAW. Three Huskers have earned All-America honors from the American Volleyball Coaches Association in the same season 18 times since 1984, most recently in 2015, when Kadie Rolfzen, Amber Rolfzen and Justine Wong-Orantes captured All-America honors. After the 1999 season, Pettit turned the program over to his long-time friend and former NU assistant coach, John Cook. Cook arrived at Nebraska with impressive credentials after building the Wisconsin volleyball program into a national power, and he wasted no time making his mark at NU. In what was supposed to be a transition year, Cook led the Huskers to a perfect 34-0 record and the 2000 NCAA title. The following season, Cook again guided the Huskers to the NCAA semifinals, where they lost to eventual national champion Stanford. After two regional finals and a regional semifinal, the Huskers returned to the national title match in 2005 and won the school’s third NCAA title in 2006, defeating Stanford, 3-1, in front of a then-NCAA record crowd of 17,209 at the Qwest Center. Nebraska added its fourth national title in 2015, beating Texas 3-0 at the CenturyLink Center in Omaha. In 17 years, Cook has guided Nebraska to a 499-65 record, three national titles, seven NCAA semifinal appearances, nine Big 12 championships and two Big Ten titles. During the Big 12 era, Cook’s teams were an amazing 207-13. The tradition that Cook continues to build began in 1978, when Kanouse and Shandi Pettine were the first Nebraska volleyball players to be recruited with full scholarships. By 1981, Pettit could award 12 scholarships. “We had a full complement,” he said. “And that put us ahead of some schools.” Those first Nebraska teams included primarily in-state athletes. But Kanouse was from Indiana and Pettine was from Colorado, evidence not only of Pettit’s interest in expanding the Huskers’ recruiting base, but also of the respect his program was earning beyond the state’s borders. HISTORY & RECORDS

Terry Pettit, pictured with Kim Behrends, led NU to six NCAA semifinals and the 1995 national title. The Devaney Center court was named in honor of Coach Pettit after a generous gift from Bill and Ruth Scott.

Fiona Nepo, a three-time All-American setter from 1996 to 1998, came from Honolulu, Hawaii. Karen Dahlgren, an All-American in 1985 and 1986, and Lynae Loseke, whose career was cut short by a knee injury, walked on, another element of the volleyball program’s consistent success shared by the football program. “We don’t have 50 walk-ons, but if we can get one good one a year, it pays off,” Pettit said. The 1981 and 1982 recruits, which included Cathy Noth (from Iowa) and Mary Buysse (from Minnesota), gave the Huskers “two really good classes in a row,” Pettit said. And, except for Dahlgren, who redshirted, they helped get Nebraska into the NCAA Tournament for the first time. NU had qualified for the AIAW National Tournament in 1978 at Tuscaloosa, Ala., but “there was no excitement because nobody here got to see the matches,” Pettit said. That changed in 1982, when Nebraska defeated a Penn State team coached by Russ Rose (Pettit’s assistant in 1978 and 1979) in the NCAA Tournament’s first round before a large and enthusiastic crowd at the NU Coliseum. “That was a dramatic step for the program,” Pettit said. “It was the first time we really had an opportunity to market something. I don’t think anything changes the perception of an athletic program like hosting an NCAA event. From then on, we were always playing, always hosting.” The Huskers have qualified for 35 consecutive NCAA Tournaments, which “may be our biggest achievement is the consistency. We’re always very competitive,” Pettit said. Nebraska reached the NCAA finals for the first time in 1986, Dahlgren’s senior season, defeating Stanford in the semifinals but losing to Pacific on its home court in Stockton, Calif. Three seasons later, the persistent Huskers were back in the NCAA title match, losing to Long Beach State (after defeating topranked UCLA) at Honolulu, Hawaii. Pettit realized then that his

program had progressed to a point where winning the national championship was a realistic goal. Several other factors contributed to the success of the Nebraska volleyball program, including the Coliseum, which was refurbished and reconfigured specifically as a volleyball facility in 1992. The intimacy of the Coliseum was a significant factor in growing fan support, which has kept Nebraska among the nation’s leaders in attendance, annually ranking in the top three nationally, including second in 2012. Nebraska sold out its last 181 straight matches at the 4,030-seat Coliseum, dating back to 2001. The Huskers moved into the newly renovated Bob Devaney Sports Center for the 2013 season. Nebraska sold out nearly 8,000 season tickets in the reconfigured Devaney Center for its inaugural season and led the nation in attendance in 2013 with an average of 8,175 fans per match. The Huskers led the nation in attendance for the fourth straight season in 2016 with an NCAA-record 8,210 fans per match while stretching their regular-season sellout streak to 219 matches. Nebraska set an NCAA regular-season attendance record on Sept. 11, 2009, as a sellout crowd of 13,870 watched the Huskers take on UCLA. Nebraska’s fans have consistently shattered volleyball attendance records. In 2015, Nebraska drew an NCAA-record crowd of 17,561 for the NCAA final at the CenturyLink Center in Omaha. The six largest crowds at the NCAA Women’s Volleyball Championship have been set in Omaha. Fans also know what to expect from the Husker teams that play at home. “They know what type of effort they’re going to see,” Pettit said. “The fans are only 10 or 15 feet removed from the playing court, so they can tell whether or not there’s enthusiasm, whether or not people (the athletes) are communicating. That’s what they really come to see. It certainly helps that Nebraska wins. The winning gets you there the first time. But you can’t have a great enterprise, whether it be a business or an athletic team, unless you have an identity. “People have that feeling about Nebraska volleyball. They know exactly what it is. They know what type of athlete is on the court. They know the style of play. They know the effort. They know the consistency. They know that she’s a good student. And they know that she’s a solid citizen when she goes on to her career after volleyball.” The attraction wasn’t immediate. Though the program has been successful from the beginning, it experienced some lean times as far as interest and support. “It’s been a slow, consistent growth,” Pettit said. “I think that fits Nebraskans. They aren’t real impressed with flash or something that just happens in the short term. What they want to see is progress over the long run. ‘Show me that you’ll continue to get the job done.’ If you do that, then they’ll ride with you even when things aren’t so good.”

The Huskers celebrate match point against Wisconsin to win the 2000 NCAA title. Nebraska went 34-0 to earn its second national title.

Huskers Trust Each Other, Peak At Right Time Nebraska’s goal for the 2015 season was clear from the beginning: Destination Omaha. With the NCAA Championship returning to Omaha’s CenturyLink Center for the first time since 2006 - when Nebraska won the national title in front of an NCAA record crowd - the goal always had to be to return to Omaha. The Huskers’ mantra “Ultimate Trust” took off in late October, and they never looked back. After back-to-back home losses to Minnesota and Wisconsin in mid-October, the Huskers reeled off 16 straight wins en route to their fourth national title in program history and first since 2006. After bowing out in the NCAA Regional Final three straight years, the Huskers cleared that hurdle with a 3-1 victory over No. 1-ranked Washington in Lexington, Ky., reaching the final four for the first time since 2008. Semifinals The fourth-seeded Huskers used a strong finish to push their way past No. 9 Kansas, punching their ticket to the NCAA Championship match. Nebraska won the final seven rallies of the match to defeat the Jayhawks in front of 17,551 fans at the CenturyLink Center. The Huskers led for all but six rallies in the first two sets, taking a 2-0 lead into the locker room following a 25-20 victory in set one and a 25-21 win in set two. The Jayhawks used six blocks to take the third set, 25-20. In the decisive fourth set, Kansas pulled within 18-16 on the strength of a 4-0 run, only to see Nebraska win the final seven rallies to advance to its seventh NCAA final. Final The Huskers won their fourth national title, sweeping the second-seeded Texas Longhorns at the CenturyLink Center in Omaha. Kelsey Fien’s 22nd swing of the night tooled the Texas block and set off a raucous celebration in front of an NCAA-record crowd of 17,561 inside the CenturyLink Center, most of whom were wearing red. The Huskers won their first national title since taking the crown in 2006, when Omaha hosted the NCAA Championships for the first time. Nebraska head coach John Cook won his third national title since taking over for the legendary Terry Pettit in 2000.

Nebraska ended its championship season with a 16-match winning streak to finish the year with a 32-4 record. The Huskers had to work for their fourth national title, 20 years after topping Texas, 3-1, for their first NCAA Championship in 1995. The first set was tied at 23 before Nebraska won the final two rallies to earn a 25-23 win. In set two, Nebraska led 24-23 before winning the final rally. The Huskers took set three by a 25-21 margin, winning the title on their third match point. Freshman Mikaela Foecke, the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player, had a match-high 19 kills for the Huskers and hit .385. Highlighting the 2015 Season • Nebraska won its fourth national title in program history, adding to titles won in 1995, 2000 and 2006. • The Huskers made their 34th straight NCAA Tournament appearance and 21st NCAA Regional appearance in the last 22 years. • The Huskers led the nation in attendance for the third consecutive season with 8,206 fans per match. • Nebraska’s three AVCA All-America honors increased its nation-leading total to 80. • Nebraska extended its regular-season sellout streak to 204 matches. • Mikaela Foecke was named the Most Outstanding Player of the NCAA Championship, becoming just the third freshman to earn the honor. Kelly Hunter, Amber Rolfzen and Justine Wong-Orantes were also named to the All-Championship team. Quoting Coach John Cook “It’s hard to put into words the environment tonight, the setting, Nebraska versus Texas, and the crowd, national championship match, ESPN - everything else that went with it. For us to come out and play a great match against a great team, it was just awesome to see. It was just awesome to watch. So I can say I’m really proud, which I am, but I’m really more proud of this team on the journey they took to get to this point and to be able to come out and trust it and play their best match.” – Cook following the national title match

A Magical Season Nebraska enjoyed a storybook season in 2006, putting together a 33-1 record en route to the school’s third national title. Despite the loss of AVCA National Player of the Year Christina Houghtelling before the start of preseason practice and a lineup that featured three new starters, the Huskers won their first 23 matches, including 18 sweeps, before suffering their only loss of the year. The Huskers rebounded by losing just one game over the next seven matches before running into their toughest test of the postseason. One game away from the national semifinals in Omaha, the Huskers overcame a 2-0 deficit to topple Minnesota and win a regional for the first time outside the state in school history. That win set the stage for one of the biggest volleyball events in history, as the Huskers played for a chance at a national title in front of sold-out crowds of 17,000-plus at the Qwest Center in Omaha. Semifinals Nebraska used a career night from Tracy Stalls to advance to the finals with a 3-1 victory over fourth-ranked UCLA. Stalls totaled a career-high 17 kills on .577 hitting, out-shining UCLA All-American Nana Meriwether, who was held to 12 kills and a season-low .190 hitting. The Huskers dropped the opener and trailed 28-26 before a Pavan kill pulled NU within a point. Stalls then closed out the game with three straight points from the service line, tying the match at one. Nebraska took control of the third game behind the strong serving of Pavan, who ran off nine straight points at the service line including three aces that turned a 13-all game into a 23-13 cushion. Stalls had seven kills in each of the final two games. While Pavan finished with a match-high 22 kills, the Husker defense held UCLA in check behind 29 digs from Dani Busboom and 25 from Jordan Larson, as both enjoyed career bests in digs against the Bruins.

Final The Huskers followed a similar script as the semifinals, dropping the opening game before regrouping. Trailing 24-23 in game two, the Huskers seized the momentum with three straight points, highlighted by a Dani Mancuso kill that gave NU a 25-24 lead. In game three, another unlikely hero emerged to spark a Husker comeback. Trailing 23-19, Amanda Gates came off the bench and sparked NU with two big blocks, the second of which put the Huskers up 29-28. In the finale, the Huskers rode the arm of Sarah Pavan, who had six of her match-high 22 kills, before Jordan Larson’s 19th kill of the night closed out the match after the Cardinal pulled within 29-27. NU had four players total at least 10 kills, as Mancuso finished with 12. Highlighting the 2006 Season • The Huskers led the country in both kills (17.40) and assists (16.20) per game, the first time Nebraska had led the country in either category. • Nebraska set school records for kills per game, assists per game and block assists (823). • Nebraska became the third team in NCAA history to lead the AVCA poll the entire season, joining UCLA (1992) and USC (2003), and the first team to win a national title while hosting since UCLA in 1991. • Sarah Pavan became the first Husker athlete to win the Honda-Broderick Cup - symbolic of the top female athlete in college athletics. Pavan also became the first Big 12 student-athlete to win the award since the league’s inception in 1996. Quoting Coach John Cook “This team maxed out to their abilities. They really never wavered the entire year, and they embraced it if they did. To win this here in Nebraska, with this group of people and overcoming the obstacles to get here and dealing with this pressure, it has to be No. 1. ” – Cook following the national title match

Nebraska shattered NCAA single-match and all-session records at the 2006 NCAA Championships in Omaha, drawing 34,222 for the two matches, including a then-NCAA record crowd of 17,209 for the title match against Stanford. At the time, that was the largest crowd to ever see a volleyball match in the United States.

2000 National Champion Huskers - (Back row from left): Lindsay Wischmeier, Pam Krejci, Kim Behrends, Amber Holmquist, Jenny Kropp, Jill McWilliams, Jenae Dowling. (Front row from left): Rachel Baumstark, Laura Pilakowski, Angie Oxley, Greichaly Cepero, Nancy Metcalf (Meendering), Anna Schrad, Sara Westling.

Mission Accomplished Nebraska entered the 2000 season with a No. 11 preseason ranking and an eagerness to prove the pollsters wrong. Competing with a new coach, a new setter and without two-time All-American Nancy Metcalf (Meendering) didn’t scare the Huskers. A trio of sophomore All-Americans, including AVCA Player-of-the-Year Greichaly Cepero, emerged to lead NU to a 34-0 record and the program’s second national title. With a 3-2 win over Wisconsin Dec. 15 in the championship final, the Huskers became just the second team in NCAA history to finish a season undefeated. First-year Head Coach John Cook earned AVCA Coach-of-the-Year honors. Semifinals In the first match, Nebraska relied on its greatest strength - its block - to stifle Hawaii at the net in a 3-1 victory. The Huskers out-blocked the Rainbow Wahine 23-7.5, as Jenny Kropp and Amber Holmquist each tallied 10 block assists. With the win, the Huskers broke the school record for consecutive victories in the modern era of five-game matches. NU produced 36 victories in 1976 when all matches were played as two-out-of-three contests.

One Goal - One Team - One Champion Nebraska entered the season with one goal in mind, win the national championship. Led by a talented trio of seniors, the Huskers capped their championship run by hammering Texas 3-1 in the title match at Amherst, Mass. After three previous trips to the NCAA Championships, the Huskers’ incredible drive and focus fueled them to their first national title. Semifinals In the first match, Nebraska countered a 15-10 loss in game one, by winning the second and third games, 15-8. Michigan State responded to NU’s challenge, winning the fourth game, 15-9. In the fifth and decisive game, with the score deadlocked at 7-7, NU scored four consecutive points, forging to an 11-7 lead. The Spartans added one more point, but the Huskers prevailed, 15-8. Allison Weston led the Husker charge, recording a team-high 30 kills. Final In the finals, Texas jumped to an early 12-4 lead in game one, but the Huskers rallied to make it close, losing 15-10. Although they lost the first game, the Huskers gained momentum, playing solidly at the end of the game. NU cruised to wins in games two and three, thumping the Longhorns, 15-2 and 15-7. Game four swayed back and forth, but the Huskers persevered, sealing NU’s first national title with a 16-14 victory. Billie Winsett and Kate Crnich led the way, posting 25 kills each. Crnich’s 25 kills were a career high, hitting .500 for the match.

Outside hitter Kate Crnich had a career-high 25 kills on .500 hitting in the NCAA title match against Texas.

Highlighting the 1995 Season • After losing its second match of the season to then-No. 1 Stanford, NU reeled off 31 consecutive wins to claim the NCAA title. An amazing 28 of Nebraska’s 32 victories were 3-0 wins. • Not only did Nebraska claim its first-ever national championship, the Huskers posted school records for wins and winning percentage that would stand until the 2000 season. Nebraska finished with a 32-1 (.970) record, bettering the .969 percentage it posted in 1994 (31-1). NU also matched the then-school record for wins, equaling the 1990 squad’s record total of 32. • Allison Weston shattered Eileen Shannon’s Husker school record for career kills (1,521), finishing her career with 1,778. • Nebraska bettered its own NCAA record for single-match home attendance, as 11,529 cheered the Huskers to a 3-0 win over Colorado, Oct. 21, at the Devaney Center. NU set the previous record of 11,032, Sept. 14, 1991, also at the Devaney Center. The mark would stand until the 2000 season. Quoting Coach Terry Pettit “We certainly should be strong. We have great senior leadership in Allison Weston, Billie Winsett and Christy Johnson. We were 31-1 last season (1994), and I think we’re going to be better this year.” – Pettit before the 1995 season

Huskers Win Big Ten, Return to Final Four The Huskers captured their first Big Ten title since 2011 and made a return trip to the NCAA semifinals before falling just short of their goal to become the first Husker team to repeat as national champions. Still, the Huskers reached the pinnacle of the Big Ten for the second time in their six seasons in the conference with an 18-2 record.

Back-to-Back For the second consecutive year, Nebraska returned to the NCAA Championships, only to be ousted one match short of the finals. Once again, as it did in 1986, Pacific sent the Huskers home with a 3-1 loss. It was the Tigers’ second victory of the season against Nebraska, as the Tigers defeated the Huskers 3-1 in an early season tournament. NCAA Semifinals A close match throughout, Nebraska and Pacific’s intense game one set the tone. Nebraska led 13-11, but saw the Tigers score four unanswered points and claim the crucial first game. The Huskers rebounded for a 15-11 win in game two, scoring the game’s final three points. Games three and four were equally competitive, but the Tigers had the stamina to thwart Nebraska’s attack, winning 15-9 and 15-12. Cris Hall led NU

with 18 kills, while Val Novak had 46 assists and a match-high 17 digs. Krissy Fifer led the Pacific attack with 21 kills. 1990 Season Highlights • In terms of winning percentage, Nebraska finished with its then-best season ever at 32-3 (.914). Before losing to Pacific in the semifinals, Nebraska had won 16 straight contests. • Nebraska set team records in block assists (558) and opponent hitting percentage (.135). • Nebraska won its 15th consecutive Big Eight title with a perfect 12-0 record and the tournament crown with a win over Colorado. • The 1990 season was the last at the Nebraska Coliseum until it reopened for volleyball in 1992.

A Second Time After a two-year hiatus, Nebraska seniors Virginia Stahr and Carla Baker led NU to its second appearance at the NCAA Championships. In 1986, the Huskers had advanced to the championship match before losing to Pacific. In 1989, NU was hoping for better luck in Honolulu, Hawaii. But fate was not on Nebraska’s side. The Husker hitters made quick work of UCLA, before losing, 3-0, to Long Beach State. NCAA Semifinals and Final A balanced Husker attack and solid defensive play propelled Nebraska past a UCLA team that had lost just two matches all season. Cris Hall led NU with 19 kills, while Janet Kruse had 12, Eileen Shannon had 11 and Virginia Stahr added 10. NU out-hit UCLA .265 to .160. Unfortunately, Nebraska’s second championship match was much like its first in 1986. Nebraska battled hard in the first game, only to lose 15-12.

HISTORY & RECORDS

From that point on, the Huskers could not regain their winning ways, as Long Beach State cruised, 15-0, 15-6 to win the match. Shannon led Nebraska with 11 kills, and Hall added 10. 1989 Season Highlights • Virginia Stahr captured several awards in 1989 including Delta Scholar Athlete of the Year, Woody Hayes Female Athlete of the Year, Big Eight Female Athlete of the Year and the NCAA Today’s Top Six Award. • Nebraska set team records in 1989 with 2,031 kills, 1,803 assists and a 17.07 kills per game average. • Nebraska won its 14th consecutive Big Eight title with a perfect 12-0 record. • The Huskers started the year with a season-high 14-match winning streak.

Led by senior All-Americans Karen Dahlgren, Tisha Delaney and Enid Schonewise, the Big Eight champion Huskers traveled to Stockton, Calif., with an impressive 28-5 record. The Huskers defeated Stanford, 3-1, before falling to Pacific, 3-0. NCAA Semifinals In the semifinals, Schonewise led the Husker attack with 15 kills, while Angie Millikin had 11 kills and a match-high 18 digs. Nebraska hit .258 for the match and held the Cardinal to just .089 hitting. In the championship match, Nebraska met a Pacific team that had lost just one game during the entire NCAA Tournament. The Huskers hung tough in

game one, coming back from a 14-9 deficit to cut the margin to two at 14-12. But the Tigers were too much, as they converted their third game point for the 15-12 win.

THIS IS

NEBRASKA

There is no place like Nebraska...and there is no experience like Nebraska volleyball. For four decades, Nebraska volleyball has set the standard for excellence. From academic and athletic success to sellout crowds and national media exposure, the Huskers are at the forefront of the sport. Nebraska volleyball players are achievers. The Huskers lead the nation in AllAmericans (84) and CoSIDA Academic AllAmericans (38). Four Huskers have claimed National Player-of-the-Year awards, while seven Huskers have been named the CoSIDA Academic All-American of the Year.

Nebraska leads the nation in AVCA AllAmericans, producing 41 student-athletes who have combined for 84 All-America certificates. Nebraska is second nationally with 44 first-team All-America awards. First-team honoree Kadie Rolfzen led the Huskers in 2016 with her fourth straight All-America honor, becoming just the second Husker all-time to be a four-time AllAmerican (Sarah Pavan). Justine Wong-Orantes was also a first-team All-American, becoming the first Husker libero to achieve that feat. Setter Kelly Hunter was a second-team AllAmerican in 2016, while Amber Rolfzen was a third-team selection.

NEBRASKA’S FIRST TITLE (1995) The 1995 Huskers rebounded from a setback to Stanford in their second match of the season to reel off 31 consecutive wins, including a 3-1 win over Texas to claim the program’s first national title. An amazing 28 of Nebraska’s 32 victories were 3-0 wins. The Huskers posted school records for wins and winning percentage that stood until 2000. Three NU players were named AVCA AllAmericans, including AVCA Co-National Player-of-the-Year Allison Weston. THE PERFECT SEASON (2000) The 2000 Husker team produced one of the best seasons in NCAA history, culminating with the program’s second national championship with a 3-2 victory over Wisconsin. Ranked sixth and 11th in the preseason polls, the young Huskers finished the season with a 34-0 record and became just the second team in NCAA history to go undefeated and win a national title. First-year Coach John Cook was named the AVCA Coach of the Year, and first-year setter Greichaly Cepero earned AVCA National Player-ofthe-Year honors. HOME-GROWN CHAMPS (2006) The 2006 Nebraska volleyball team was dominant from start to finish, going 33-1 en route to winning the school’s third national title. The Huskers were ranked No. 1 all season, becoming only the third team in NCAA history to accomplish the feat. The Huskers swept 24 of 34 matches and were a perfect 12-0 against nationally ranked teams. The Huskers capped the season with wins over fourth-ranked UCLA and second-ranked Stanford at the NCAA Championship in front of sold-out crowds at Qwest Center Omaha. Four players earned AVCA AllAmerica honors, including AVCA National Player-of-the-Year Sarah Pavan. JOURNEY TO OMAHA COMPLETE (2015) The 2015 Huskers made their goal clear from day one: reach the final four in Omaha once again. After a pair of home losses to Minnesota and Wisconsin in October, the Huskers came together and reeled off 16 straight wins to end the season, culminating in a 3-0 sweep of Texas in front of an NCAArecord crowd at the CenturyLink Center in Omaha. The Huskers blitzed their way through the NCAA Tournament with three sweeps and no match going five sets. Freshman Mikaela Foecke was the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player, and Kadie Rolfzen, Amber Rolfzen and Justine Wong-Orantes earned AVCA AllAmerica honors. 103


HOME OF CHAMPIONS At Nebraska, volleyball is not just a game, it’s an event. Some of the things you’ll experience at an NU volleyball match include: Fans chanting “Husker Power” at deafening levels, Lil’ Red entertaining children, the Tunnel Walk whipping the crowd into a frenzy as the Huskers take the court, and autograph seekers swarming players after each match. In 2016, the Huskers led the nation in attendance for the fourth straight year since moving into the beautifully renovated Bob Devaney Sports Center. Nebraska fans set an NCAAattendance record with 8,210 fans per match. The Huskers also hold an NCAA-record regularseason sellout streak of 219 matches dating back to 2001 at the NU Coliseum.

Nebraska led the nation in attendance for the fourth straight season with 8,210 fans per match, an NCAA attendance record.

The new high-definition video board is 28-feet wide on the sides and 13.5-feet tall. A new sound system was also installed to add to the already electric atmosphere inside the Devaney Center for each home match. External renovations at the Devaney Center also finished in the summer of 2015, demonstrating Nebraska’s amazing commitment to providing the best facilities to the nation’s finest student-athletes. The Devaney Center, which was renovated and reconfigured specifically for volleyball in 2013, features five suites, new ceiling trusses that mimic Nebraska’s previous home court, the historic NU Coliseum, and a great wall to replicate the Coliseum entry.

In 2016, Nebraska played its firstever home beach volleyball match, defeating Missouri Baptist 5-0. The Huskers started a beach volleyball program in 2013 and have used the season to improve their all-around skill sets while traveling to destinations like Hawaii, California and Arizona over spring break. 107

The NAPL features a talented, multidisciplinary team that includes a full-time director, assistant director and biomarker lab director, and two research post-doctoral fellows. Located in East Memorial Stadium adjacent to UNL’s Center for Brain, Biology and Behavior (CB3), the NAPL collaborates with Nebraska’s Performance staff and athletic programs to offer the highest level of integration of sport performance technologies and systems. The NAPL is made up of the Mark and Debra Classen Cardio Area, James and Karen Linder Dynamic Performance Center, Markin Family Collaborative Center, Thayer Family Athletic Research Lab and cutting-edge equipment donated by the Suzanne and Walter Scott Foundation. The main entrance for the research facilities is located in the Janet and Gerard Keating Family Concourse. Focused on student-athlete health, safety and welfare, the NAPL is a world-leading research and performance facility focusing on the performance enhancement, safety and long-term well-being of student-athletes. The NAPL includes simulated athletic environments for studying performance, incorporating a camera system to track human motion capture videos (3D) to measure athletes in their development through testing results to create an athletic performance index for each athlete, force plates to measure ground reaction forces and state-of-the-art technology to assess physiological limitations and biomarkers, investigate exercise cardiovascular capacity and measure body composition. All 24 Husker athletic programs conduct performance testing at NAPL. Force plates and motion capture videos (3D) are used to measure athletes in their development through testing results to create an athletic performance index for each athlete. The NAPL uses IDexa as an advanced, accurate and reliable method to analyze and measure body composition. The focus of the Thayer Family Athletic Research Lab is recovery from competition, travel and all stressors a student athlete might experience by measuring salivary biomarkers hours prior to and up to 24 hours post-competition.

HUSKER POWER The model strength and conditioning program in the nation, Husker Power plays a major role in the continuing success of Nebraska athletics. Nebraska’s strength program was the first in the nation. With 14 staff members, Husker Power is one of the most comprehensive strength and conditioning organizations in the nation. Nebraska’s strength training facilities have set the standard in collegiate athletics since the early 1970s. The Ndamukong Suh Strength and Conditioning Center in the Osborne Athletic Complex and Nebraska’s impressive new weight room at the Hendricks Training Complex have taken Husker Power to a whole new level in recent years.

BUILDING THE ALL-AROUND VOLLEYBALL PLAYER

The University of Nebraska volleyball strength and conditioning coach is dedicated to making each student-athlete the best all-around volleyball player she can become. The goal of the strength coach is to help the volleyball player reach her full potential on the court. With the year-round lifting and conditioning program, we strive to reduce injuries and at the same time increase performance.

STRENGTH STAFF

Brian Kmitta is in his fourth year as head strength coach for the volleyball program. The strength and conditioning program’s goal is to produce strength, speed, power and discipline. Making sure the student-athletes are strong, healthy and competitive is the number one priority. Another goal is to build team dynamics, leadership and mental toughness through different conditioning drills.

WEIGHT TRAINING

The weight lifting program consists of both strength and explosive exercises that focus on ground-based and multi-joint movements. Off-season lifting consists of four days a week of lifting with two days of explosive training and two days of strength training. In-season lifting is two days a week focusing on total body movements.

PLYOMETRIC AND AGILITY TRAINING

It is important to condition like a volleyball player. Volleyball is a game that requires agility and explosiveness on a consistent basis. It is important to follow this pattern when performing conditioning drills, as plyometric exercises are specialized, high-intensity training techniques used to develop athletic power.

CONDITIONING

Volleyball is a fast-paced game of short bursts requiring change of directions both laterally and vertically. Developing volleyball endurance is also crucial to prepare for five sets. The conditioning consists of plyometric, agility, speed and endurance training. Plyometric training is used to increase verticals and to work on landings to reduce injuries. Volleyball players need to be able to change direction quickly and get to top speed as fast as possible.

FLEXIBILITY

Flexibility is another important component to the overall volleyball program. It is worked on throughout the year during conditioning sessions and practice. Yoga is also used during the season to increase performance and reduce injury.

RECOVERY FROM INJURY

The strength and conditioning staff has constant communication with the athletic medicine staff in order to plan a successful training program to get the athlete promptly and safely back to competition.

HUSKER STUDENT-ATHLETES Nebraska Athletics is one of the few self-sustaining athletic programs in the country. In 2016-17, Nebraska was one of only two collegiate programs in the nation to attract nearly 1.3 million fans across its seven major team sports through the doors of its world-class facilities. This incredible interest and support enables Nebraska Athletics to invest in the student-athlete experience, as well as the overall game-day experience. Nebraska is a leader in providing all the resources and support necessary for student-athletes to become successful in Academics, Athletics and Life. Nebraska will continue to strategically plan for avenues to strengthen the resources to support more than 600 Husker student-athletes across 24 sports.

ACADEMIC EXPERIENCE

More than 600 student-athletes, including Nebraska volleyball’s Sydney Townsend, benefit not only from Nebraska’s full cost of attendance scholarships and the MacBook Air program, but also the amazing facilities and staff support within the Dick and Peg Herman Family Student Life Complex. Nebraska leads the nation in CoSIDA Academic All-America and NCAA Today’s Top Ten awards.

124

ATHLETIC EXPERIENCE

Nebraska’s strength and conditioning has long been at the forefront of college athletics. Under the direction of Boyd Epley, Nebraska has a staff of 14 strength coaches, including football strength coach Mark Philipp, who creates personalized strength and conditioning programs for Husker student-athletes.

LIFE SKILLS EXPERIENCE

The Husker Life Skills program allows studentathletes to continue their development and impact lives in the community. In 2016-17, Husker student-athletes, including Annika Albrecht pictured above, completed more than 400 outreach activities while volunteering nearly 8,000 hours to impact approximately 35,000 people in Nebraska communities.


A LIFETIME EXPERIENCE SPORTS NUTRITION LEWIS TRAINING TABLE

Husker student-athletes have ample places to dine, as the Lewis Training Table is open extended hours for meals, while the North Stadium and Hendricks Training Complexes have areas for supplements for recovery after workouts or for snacks throughout the day. Nebraska’s three fulltime sports dietitians work with the Lewis Training Table manager and executive chef to plan and prepare meals to help maximize performance for student-athletes. Nebraska’s individual nutritional counseling focuses on performance nutrition strategies, hydration, quality food choices and proper supplementation to help student-athletes reach their full potential. Nebraska volleyball nutritionist Tommy Jensen (below) helped Amber Rolfzen change her diet and improve her on-court performance.

In August of 2014, the NCAA Division I Board of Directors restructured the way member institutions and conferences, including the Big Ten, govern themselves. Nebraska has a great history and tradition of providing unmatched benefits and support to student-athletes. However, this change in governance, and subsequent legislation, paved the way for Nebraska to enhance the benefits and experiences for student-athletes. A few examples of these enhanced benefits are: • All scholarship student-athletes across all sports have their scholarship calculated based on the full cost of attendance. • Each student-athlete is offered an Apple MacBook Air laptop computer to enhance their learning opportunities (pictured top left).

ATHLETIC MEDICINE: CARING FOR HUSKERS

Nebraska’s Athletic Medicine facilities rank among the nation’s best, while one of the most experienced medical staffs in the nation care for all Husker student-athletes. Nebraska’s medical team consists of 13 full-time athletic trainers and eight graduate assistant trainers, led by Associate Athletic Director Dr. Lonnie Albers. Nebraska volleyball athletic trainer Jolene Emricson (above) has been the Huskers’ trainer for the past 15 years. A full staff of orthopaedists is also available to the Huskers, led by Dr. Richard Dugas. The Husker Athletic Medicine team also includes a full-time, in-house athletic psychologist, and sports psychiatry consultants who work directly with Husker student-athletes.

• Nebraska has increased resources and support in all academic and performance related areas including but not limited to Academic Services, Life Skills, Athletic Medicine, Athletic Training, Strength and Conditioning, Nebraska Athletic Performance Laboratory, Nutrition and Dining Services (Training Table) and Sports Analytics. • Nebraska created the first-known PostEligibility Opportunity (PEO) program, where every student-athlete graduate who has exhausted their athletic eligibility has the opportunity to pursue (with Nebraska support) an internship, participate in a study abroad program or attend graduate school within the University of Nebraska system.

THE ACADEMIC EXPERIENCE

128


“Having been part of a national championship team at Nebraska, I cannot imagine achieving that for a more appreciative school and community. Nebraska is a special place that treats its student-athletes like family. No matter where you’re from, near or far, when you wear the Husker red, you’re part of something greater than yourself.” -Allison Weston, 1995 National Champion and 2015 Nebraska Hall of Fame Inductee

The athletic academic unit, located in the Dick and Peg Herman Family Student Life Complex, provides personal and academic support to ensure that studentathletes will get the most out of their years as Huskers. Featuring one of the most innovative and comprehensive academic support systems in the country, Nebraska is dedicated to helping its student-athletes become outstanding leaders in their chosen fields. The academic support team is composed of 14 full-time staff members and is certified by the National Association of Academic Advisors for Athletics (N4A) as meeting the standards established by the N4A.

ACADEMIC COUNSELING

Seven academic counselors, three learning specialists and two assistant academic counselors are in place to monitor daily academic progress, receive consistent course feedback, assist with the advising/registration process and monitor continuing eligibility and progress toward graduation.

TUTORIAL SUPPORT

A tremendous resource for all academic abilities, unlimited tutorial support from approximately 75-100 tutors on staff is available from day one up to college graduation in all subject areas. The tutorial program is certified as a model tutoring program by the College Reading and Learning Association.

STUDY HALL

Nebraska’s study hall program is housed in the D.J. Sokol Enrichment Center within the Student Life Complex. Student-athletes attend a supervised, flex-time study hall that features day, evening and weekend hours. Student-athletes are required to complete a specific number of study hours each week as determined by their academic counselor and/or coach. Additional performance-based or tutorbased study hall also may be determined by the academic counselor.

MENTORING

Academic support staff serve as mentors to all incoming student-athletes and a select group of returning student-athletes. The student-athletes meet with their mentor weekly to develop time management skills, gather and report academic progress information, and discuss academic success strategies.

EDUCATIONAL ASSESSMENTS

Assessments are administered upon the request of the student-athlete, academic counselor, or coach. Learning specialists are available to administer and score informal assessments, which include a reading comprehension and a writing assessment. When more in-depth assessments are necessary, referrals are made to a consulting psychologist who conducts the assessments. If it is determined a student-athlete has a learning disability or another medical condition that impedes the student from reaching their academic potential, appropriate accommodations are implemented by the Office of Services for Students with Disabilities.

STUDENT-ATHLETE ORIENTATION

Each new student-athlete attends an orientation at the beginning of their academic career. Student-athletes are introduced to staff, faculty, administrators, and a variety of resources that help facilitate the transition into college while enhancing awareness of support services in the Athletic Department and across campus.

PERSONAL COUNSELING

Student-athletes will find a supportive and caring environment at Nebraska. Transitional issues, stress management, time management, academic focus and problem resolution are all addressed in a proactive manner throughout the year. If necessary, counseling referrals are also made to designated practitioners.

COMPUTER RESOURCES

The Herman Student Life Complex has two computer labs available for studentathletes. The Scott Technology Center features two tech tables for use on group computer projects and group study sessions. New laptops are provided to all student-athletes for use during their academic career at Nebraska. Top: The main entrance to the Dick and Peg Herman Family Student Life Complex in West Memorial Stadium is the gateway to student-athlete success at Nebraska.

LIFE SKILLS Regarded as the premier and most comprehensive Life Skills program in college athletics, the Husker program is committed to providing proactive education, resources and support through college and beyond to promote total person development and preparation for life after sports. Led by Senior Associate Athletic Director Keith Zimmer, five full-time staff members coordinate community involvement, career planning, effective communication strategies and much more to benefit Husker student-athletes.

In May of 2017, 22 student-athletes, including Husker volleyball players Briana Holman and Sydney Townsend (pictured below) traveled to Nicaragua as part of the NoFilter program to serve abroad with Seeds of Learning, a nonprofit organization that helps to create educational opportunities in rural Latin America. Over the course of one week, these Huskers experienced a new culture, created new friendships and relationships, and most importantly, helped build additional classrooms for a school in the town of Villa Japรณn.

130


PROACTIVE EDUCATION

The Life Skills team organizes several orientations aimed at acclimating student-athletes to college life. Additionally, all incoming student-athletes attend the fall semester Husker Life Seminar. This interactive class promotes responsible decisionmaking, personal brand, financial literacy, leadership, involvement and service.

INDIVIDUAL MEETINGS

Every Nebraska student-athlete is assigned a Life Skills staff member who will assist with personal and career development. The meetings help each student-athlete identify a career focus and implement a plan to increase career marketability.

CAREER COMMITMENT & NETWORKING

Annually, Nebraska Life Skills organizes a StudentAthlete Career Fair, Networking Night (pictured bottom right) and other career events aimed at connecting Huskers with companies desiring competitive, hardworking, accountable candidates. Athlete Network and Husker Hire Link provide opportunities to explore career opportunities across the country.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH

Nebraska student-athletes readily accept the role-model challenge, collectively giving more than 8,000 hours annually to impact thousands across the state of Nebraska. Outreach events include but are not limited to hospital visits, mentoring, school assemblies, statewide rallies (including the Sportsmanship 4 Life Pep Rally, pictured opposite page, bottom left), Make-A-Wish, School is Cool and Husker Heroes.

LEADERSHIP

Nebraska Life Skills provides student-athletes with countless opportunities to enhance leadership skills while distinguishing themselves from the competition. Student-athletes can be members of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, Uplifting Athletes Chapter or Inner Circle. UNL offers more than 600 recognized student organizations allowing athletes to collaborate with other campus leaders for common goals. Nebraska Life Skills funds and coordinates an annual one-week service abroad trip that allows 20 student-athletes to work together toward a common goal while enriching cultural competencies.

RECOGNITION

In 2016-17, 14 Husker volleyball student-athletes were named to the Tom Team for completing a minimum of six service projects in the calendar year. A host of other recognition opportunities at the institutional, Big Ten and NCAA levels that all reflect the high ideals, character and servant leadership nurtured through community involvement also are available.

POST-ELIGIBILITY OPPORTUNITIES

Effective December 2015 and beyond, studentathletes who letter and graduate will have a three-year window to benefit from one of three post-eligibility opportunities each valued at $7,500. Upon completion of required seminars, graduates can either study abroad, complete an internship or begin graduate school within the University of Nebraska system.

DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION

The Life Skills program also is responsible for all Diversity and Inclusion initiatives for Husker Athletics. Since 2016, the Diversity and Inclusion Summit has reached all student-athletes and staff members with programming emphasizing respect, acceptance and unity. Numerous other special events are coordinated in collaboration with campus departments highlighting the diversity within Husker Nation. Head Coach John Cook (top) spoke to students at the Sportsmanship 4 Life pep rally. Kelly Hunter participated in Nebraska’s 2017 Diversity and Inclusion Summit (bottom left).

HUSKERS IN THE PROS

WORLD CHAMPIONS AND OLYMPIANS

Led by three former Huskers, the U.S. National Team won its first major gold medal at the 2014 FIVB World Championship with a 3-1 win over China in Milan, Italy. The U.S. women had never before won gold at any of the three major international volleyball events: World Championship, World Cup or Olympic Games. Outside hitters Jordan Larson (left), Kelsey Robinson (middle) and libero Kayla Banwarth (right) helped the U.S. defeat two-time defending World champion Russia and two-time defending Olympic champion Brazil on the way to the finals. The Husker trio was also named to the Olympic roster for the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Nebraska’s three selections were more than any school. Former Husker Sarah Pavan competed for Canada in beach volleyball as well. The U.S. Women’s National Team earned the bronze medal, the second-ever medal for the U.S. at the Olympics. In 2017, Justine Wong-Orantes and Amber Rolfzen won the gold medal with Team USA at the Pan American Cup in Peru. Wong-Orantes went on to serve as the team’s libero during the FIVB World Grand Prix, following in the footsteps of former Nebraska and U.S. libero, and current Husker assistant coach Kayla Banwarth.

BEYOND NEBRASKA

Following their collegiate experiences, many former Huskers have the opportunity to play either professionally or with their respective national teams. The Huskers are well represented on the U.S. National Team, as Jordan Larson, Kayla Banwarth and Kelsey Robinson were on the U.S. National Team roster that competed at the 2016 Olympics in Rio. Former Husker Sarah Pavan played beach volleyball for Canada at the Olympics. Justine Wong-Orantes and Amber Rolfzen debuted on the squad in 2017. Nebraska Head Coach John Cook was on the U.S. National Team staff at the 2011 Women’s Pan American Cup in Juarez, Mexico, where he served as the team manager. A total of 13 current or former Huskers have been members of the U.S. National Team, while six former Huskers (Banwarth, Larson, Robinson, Nancy Metcalf (Meendering), Allison Weston and Lori Endicott) have represented the United States in the Olympic Games.
