"Yeah, it's definitely crazy. Very fast. I think I had 4-5 days off, and then it was right into a new season. But I mean, being in Omaha was super helpful and then having familiar faces on the team and just a great group of girls, I feel like was the best thing that I could have walked into," Rodriguez said.

Leading the Huskers to a 33-3 record in her senior year, Rodriguez became the Husker Volleyball Female Athlete of the Year. She was honored as the 2024 Big Ten Libero of the Year, her career-third Big Ten annual defensive laurel.
