Former Nebraska libero Lexi Rodriguez has revealed what made the Nebraska Volleyball team compete year after year. Rodriguez played for the Huskers from 2021 to 2024 and was recognized as the AVCA National Freshman of the Year in 2021. She arrived in Nebraska as the No.1 libero prospect ranked by PrepVolleyball.com.

Rodriguez revealed what made the Nebraska Volleyball team so competitive each season in an interview with Adam Carriker on the Carriker Chronicles. She said (5:28 onwards):

"I mean got to give credit to the person who's been behind a lot of the success in coach Cook and just his philosophies and his standards and culture.

"You got to start at the top and then you have your assistant coaches and your players and everything like that, but year after year, he's produced amazing Final Four teams and I think it's just a huge credit to him. He has built his foundation and has stuck with it throughout his whole coaching career and has just done really well with all the amazing athletes that have come through to Nebraska."

Rodriguez's head coach at Nebraska was John Cook, who recently retired after spending 25 seasons with the Nebraska Volleyball team. He led the Huskers to four NCAA Championships during his tenure.
