Nebraska volleyball student-athlete Lauren Stivrins has been named one of 30 semifinalists for the prestigious AAU James E. Sullivan Award, the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) announced Monday.
The AAU Sullivan Award has been presented annually since 1930 to the most outstanding amateur athlete in the United States. Representatives from the AAU created the Sullivan Award with the intent to recognize amateur contributions and achievements from non-professional athletes across the country. Former Husker standout Mikaela Foecke was a finalist for the award in 2015-16 and again in 2018-19, and other former Huskers Kelsey Robinson, Annika Albrecht and Kelly Hunter have all been finalists in the last seven years.
