UPDATED Nebraska Prep Dig Team Series Bracket
The powerful Centennial Conference provides exciting matches all season long! Night in and night out these teams come prepared and bring their A-game to the court. The exceptional game calling and training from longtime coaches including, but not limited to, Sue Ziegler (Lincoln Lutheran), Sharon Zavala (GICC), and Alan VanCura (Hastings St. Cecilia) reload with players rather than rebuild.
In 2020, many of the top teams return top athletes with fine-tuned volleyball skills. Some potential state leaders this fall will include Lincoln Lutheran’s Abi Wohlgemuth, Abby Wachal Abby Wachal 5'10" | OH Lincoln Lutheran | 2023 State NE , and Ashlyn DeBoer Ashlyn DeBoer 5'10" | S Lincoln Lutheran | 2022 State NE ; Ashey Keck, Kearney Catholic; Katharine Hamburger, Hastings St. Cecilia; Gracie Woods Gracie Woods 6'0" | OH Grand Island CC | 2023 State NE , and Chloe Cloud Chloe Cloud 6'2" | MB Grand Island Central Catholic | 2022 State NE , GICC; Lauren Theile, Wahoo Neumann; and Lauren Baker Lauren Baker 5'10" | OH Archbishop Bergan | 2021 State NE , Fremont Bergan. Evan Glade Evan Glade 5'11" | OH Millard West | 2023 State NE of GICC did not see a lot of playing time on varsity in 2019, but look for her to make a statement in 2020.
SPOILER ALERT – In addition, each year it’s exciting to see the new headliners on each team. In 2020 GICC fans will meet the 2019 graduate Katie Maser’s “little” sister in 6’0 freshman Carolyn Maser, also a setter. And Lutheran opponents will find a big block in 6’4 junior transfer Katelynn Oxley. Katelynn comes from Lincoln East and played in the Nebraska Juniors program (HUDL Highlights).
