It's been nearly two years since Andi Jackson has been a part of the Nebraska Cornhuskers women's volleyball team. Ahead of the 2025 season, the 19-year-old middle blocker shared her thoughts on the new season.

In a conversation with the YouTube channel '1890 Nebraska' conducted in late October 2024, Jackson replied to whether she felt more confident going into the new season.

“Yes 100%. I think last year I felt like a chicken with my head cut off. You just feel like it's one thing after another, but this year it has definitely felt more smooth, not necessarily easier, but I feel like I can manage it better and I kind of have an idea of what's happening and what's coming, so I manage it better, yeah,” she mentioned [1:04 onwards].

Jackson also shared an aspect about her blocking, to which she added:

“I'm really training my blocking. That's always something that I'm gonna be working to get better at, I think, in all my years of volleyball. And then staying consistent attacking-wise, and then, obviously, in the weight room, just trying to get stronger, faster, be able to jump higher, and never hurt.”

Andi Jackson will be hoping to make it count in the new season as the Nebraska Cornhuskers play for the first time without longtime coach John Cook, who retired a few days ago.
