Megan Miller knew there would be family and friends in the crowd when the Nebraska volleyball team played a match last week against Purdue in West Lafayette, Indiana.
The freshman defensive specialist grew up in Alexandria, a town of about 5,000 residents about 1½ hours from the Purdue campus. Her mother told her the high school volleyball team was coming, and Miller knew some friends would be there.
Before the match Miller saw a few familiar faces. But it wasn’t until after the match, when Miller’s mom got everybody together for a photo, that Miller saw how many people had come to see her play.
