Harper Murray had a lot to say during this year’s Big Volleyball Media Days, including which match she’s looking forward to the most. “Pitt at the beginning. Our home opener,” said NCAA Volleyball during a rapid-fire Q&A. However, the grand pre-season media event in Chicago also gave the volleyball stars a chance to reminisce, and the outside hitter discussed a hard-hitting topic.
“Sometimes I take it for granted for sure,” the 20-year-old said about the privileges she enjoys at Nebraska. As one of the most renowned volleyball schools in the nation, the Huskers treat their athletes well. In fact, athletic director Troy Dannen has promised even bigger things moving forward. So when Murray got the opportunity to teach over 1600 kids, she remembered her early days.
In fact, the massive two-day youth camp in Nebraska reminded Murray of the lack of volleyball culture in her hometown. “Someone asked me at the camp if I went to camps like this growing up, and my answer was no,” said Harper Murray after coaching the camp alongside Bergen Reilly. “I didn’t have people like Jordan Larson and Andy Jackson and Lexi to look up to like that,” she added.
“At the end of the day, that’s my goal. I want to give back.”
