The "wow" factor for the newest player to commit to the Nebraska volleyball program is that she’s been a starter for a high school volleyball team since she was in the seventh grade.
In Minnesota, students in seventh and eighth grades are eligible to compete for high school teams, and that’s what Kennedi Orr has done.
Orr is from Eagan, Minnesota, and recently committed to the Huskers. She’s now a high school freshman and will be part of the Huskers’ 2021 recruiting class. She’s a 5-foot-11 setter.
Any of her credentials at this point seem minimal after noting that by the end of her seventh-grade season she had earned a starting job for Eagan High School, which plays in the state’s largest classification.
