Asmussen | Illini volleyball's Quade seeks redemption on big stage
Illinois outside hitter Jacqueline Quade (7) spikes the ball during the first set of the Elite 8 match of the NCAA 2018 Division I Women's Volleyball Championship against Wisconsin at Huff Hall Saturday, Dec. 8, 2018, on the University of Illinois campus in Champaign.Doug Helsom tried to make the trip to Minneapolis this week. He wanted to cheer on his former player Jacqueline Quade at the NCAA Final Four.
Helsom coached Quade at Fort Wayne (Ind.) Carroll. In her final season of 2015, Quade led the Chargers to the Indiana 4A state final at Muncie.
It did not go well.
Undefeated Indianapolis Cathedral swept Carroll 25-21, 25-13 and 25-21.
Afterward, then-senior Quade wasn't happy.
