Hitting the ball over the net, senior Kaelin Pribyl tries to avoid the block from Bell West. In the District Championship, the Wildcats lost to the T-Birds 3-1. Our strengths throughout the game were staying in system with out passing, which keeps all hitters available as an option, and staying disciplined with our blocking against their biggest hitter, Pribyl said. We knew they were a great team but we didnt let that stop us from playing to win, rather than playing to not lose.

Wildcats take a hard loss

Sitting in the Capitol Building, senior Brooklyn Lech speaks with Don Bacons representative. Lech traveled to Washington D.C. to speak on behalf of the JDRF. I had to apply to be considered for the position, Lech said. I was the only girl chosen to represent Nebraska and the other two were brothers from Lincoln; Alex and Aiden Ourada.

Looking down at a paper, senior Taylor Hansen signs her letter of intent. Hansen was signing to play division three womens basketball. I chose Simpson College in Iowa, Hansen said. Their program really stood out to me because the coaches and players invited me in and welcomed me like I was a part of their family.

Waiting for a rebound, senior Michael Bartholomew plays two on two with seniors Luke Wu, Jordan Gassen, and Brady Mar. Bartholomew commonly uses the courts to practice at his dads gym Lifestyle in Valley. My friends and I come out to the gym often to play basketball, Bartholomew said. Its hard to find a time when we are all free but when we can make it happen, we have a lot of fun.

Watching the stands fill up for Volleyball Day, senior Kaelin Pribyl stopped to snap a pic before the stadium got too busy. On Aug. 30, Nebraska beat the world record with an attendance of 92,003 people. These types of moments help bring more attention to womens sports, which allows them to receive the respect they deserved a long time ago, Pribyl said. The video tributes were what I enjoyed most about the game because they were videos of players talking about what this opportunity means for them personally and how it impacts sports all together.

A part of history
