The 20-year-old lost her father, Vada, to lung cancer in 2011 after years of battling. He was a defensive back at Michigan University from 1986 to 1990. In an interview with the Huskers Radio Network Podcast, the outside hitter revealed that she and her sister Kendall Murray honored their father by playing in Jersey 27.

"So my dad's number when he played at Michigan was 27. And as many people know, he ended up dying when I was younger. But 27 was a number that me and my sister always wanted to wear when we were older. And I think that we both got the opportunity to wear it at the schools we're at. So I just think it's just a reminder of why we play and why like we care so much about what we do," said Harper (4:29 onwards)
