Lexi Rodriguez drops two-word reaction as she receives latest Adidas shoes

Lexi Rodriguez has made her feelings known about receiving the latest Adidas shoes. The former Husker recently went on a beach vacation.

Rodriguez was last seen in action on April 14, 2025, in the League One Volleyball (LOVB) inaugural season, where she and her team, Omaha, squared off against Austin. The latter won the showdown 25-19, 25-22, and 25-23. Weeks later, after concluding the debut season in the league as runners-up, Lexi joined the 30-member USA roster for the upcoming Volleyball Nations League.

Amid this, the 22-year-old received the latest 'The Hidden Opponent' shoes from Adidas and shared a glimpse of them on her Instagram story on Thursday, May 15. She shared the picture of the green and white-colored shoes that had a cute shoe ring on them, and also shared a picture of the shoes' box. She made her feelings known by writing:

"I'm obsessed."

A few days ago, Rodriguez shared a sneak peek of a weekend getaway with some of her friends, including former Cornhuskers Kennedi Orr and Anni Evans. In the first story, she posed with Orr and wrote in the caption:

"Cheers to the weekend + besties in town💌🥂."

Following this, she uploaded a picture of Orr and Evans together.

"This is very overwhelming but super exciting. I could say thank you to so many people. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for everyone at the University of Nebraska, all my coaching staff and my teammates, who are here with me today, and all the belief that they had in me throughout my college career. Truly, it is such an honor, so thank you."

She added:

"I want to thank you, the Husker Volleyball community, and just the whole state of Nebraska, because if you have ever heard of Nebraska volleyball, you know the fans are pretty crazy. They are amazing, and their support was just so incredible to have. I know that a lot of them probably voted, and so if you're watching at home, thank you.”
