Volleyball fans' ovation for Ohio player from Filley was special moment after career-ending injury

Carley Remmers received a home-state welcome from a crowd of about 5,000 fans when the Ohio volleyball team played an afternoon match against Nebraska earlier this season in Lincoln.

Remmers is from Filley, a town of about 150 people near Beatrice. She attended high school at Freeman, and helped her school win the Class C-2 state volleyball championship as a senior.

This is her fourth season with the Bobcats, and also the last for the redshirt junior. Her college career has had some bright spots — there was a 13-kill match against Oklahoma last year — but she’s also been robbed of a lot of time due to injuries.
