Nebraska volleyball John Cook isn’t ready to make it official, but it still looks and sounds like true freshman Nicklin Hames will be the starting setter when the Huskers begin the season Friday.
Nebraska has three setters on the roster this year, with Hames joined by junior Mari Kurkova and senior Brooke Smith. The signs point to Hames being the starter. She was the only setter who played on the top team during the Red-White scrimmage last week, and this week she was back working with the top group at practice. But after practice on Wednesday evening Cook wasn’t saying who the starter will be.
