Nebraska Volleyball's Andi Jackson shares thoughts about training at The Deff during her initial years

Andi Jackson shared her perspective about training at The Deff training facility in her early years in the world of volleyball. In an interview, Jackson shared that the training facility was quite small and her smashes would go out and hit the wall during their practice sessions.

Additionally, she also mentioned that she never thought she would be able to join The Deff because of its prominence in her home state, Colorado. She said (via Hudl, 00:35 onwards):

"The Deff is very small, it is a small barn and I remember I would hit it and it would go and hit the back well and ricochet back because it's small in there. My last year there was a heater put up so it would be either really hot or really cold. At the time, the Deff was a very well known club in Colorado and everyone wanted to play there so I was like, I'm some scrub and I have barely played volleyball, I'm not going to make it."

Besides The Deff facility, Andi Jackson has also played for the US U-19 team during the 2022 Pan American Cup.
