Nebraska adds former top-80 national recruit Kayla Caffey, bolsters middle blocker position

The Nebraska volleyball team will have more depth and competition for playing time at the middle blocker position for this season with the addition of a graduate transfer who was a former top-80 national recruit and had some big matches while playing for Missouri.

Kayla Caffey, a 6-foot middle blocker from Chicago, committed Friday to join the Huskers, she told the Journal Star.

And she may be able to play two seasons with the Huskers. She’ll join Nebraska as a graduate transfer and be able to play this season as a junior. She redshirted as a freshman at Missouri, then missed the 2018 season with a leg injury and was awarded a medical redshirt by the NCAA.
