Radtke’s building their legacy

Creating a lifelong legacy isn’t easy to do. A Huskie legacy and tradition is something the Radtke sisters, Jenna and Jori, are currently building with their volleyball careers at NIU.

The legacy began in Aug. 2010 when Jenna Radtke, a sophomore at Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire, began playing volleyball. She had become dissatisfied with cheerleading and playing soccer, mostly because of the running.

However, she knew very little about volleyball as she hadn’t played before.
