Former Nebraska Volleyball players Lexi Rodriguez and Kennedi Orr lived their ‘Gossip Girl’ dreams during a New York getaway. This came after Rodriguez’s 2025 season with pro team LOVB Omaha ended as the team finished runner-up to Austin, who won the inaugural League One Volleyball title.
It was Rodriguez’s first year as a professional volleyball player, having signed with LOVB’s Omaha team in December 2024 after concluding her collegiate career with Nebraska Volleyball. For the LOVB Omaha, although she wasn’t a regular feature with Justine Wong-Orantes serving as the primary libero, Rodriguez still made her presence felt during the time she competed for them.
After LOVB Omaha's final match of the league, which ended in heartbreak with a loss in the championship game, she traveled to New York to spend some time off in the city, where she was joined by Kennedi Orr, her former teammate. Orr shared a picture of their visit, with Rodriguez at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the background on her Instagram story, captioning the post:

“Living our gossip girls dreams"
This suggests that 'Gossip Girl' dreams may indicate exploring New York in an exciting way, feeling glamorous, and living a lifestyle portrayed in the TV show.
Meanwhile, Lexi Rodriguez also shared glimpses of her time in the city featuring Orr and Times Square in her highlights. Take a look at the glimpses here -
While Rodriguez was occupied with a competitive schedule, Orr visited Saint-Martin-Boulogne in France a few weeks earlier and has been enjoying some time off since her stint at Nebraska ended.
