Being the highlight of the Nebraska volleyball program, Murray receives immense fan love wherever she goes. In her recent stint at Ord, during a signing session, the 20-year-old spotted a boy holding a board with 'Will you marry me, Harper?' written on it.

Before taking the court for the match, Nebraska Volleyball's Harper Murray wished to help the kids around Ord who couldn't manage tickets but would be interested in some volleyball action.

"I’d like to give my extra tickets for Saturday’s match in Ord to kids who live near Ord & were unable to get tickets. I have 3 tickets available. I’d love for a family w/ little Husker fans to use the tickets. DM me, I’ll review the messages w/ my mom & she will reach out."

After coach John Cook stepped down from his head coaching role, his former assistant and Husker alum, Dani Busboom Kelly, replaced him at Nebraska. After the Cornhuskers vs South Dakota match-up, Kelly's second game with the team, outside hitter, and the most integral player of the volleyball squad, shared that a lot of adjustments have to be made to understand Kelly's coaching style, but it was exciting.

She also talked about how being a guiding force for the new players was equally important for her.

"Kind of a whirwhind, just different, just like having Dani here and not having coach, and it's obviously, like, we all have to adjust in our own ways, but it's just really exciting, cause I really love how Dani runs practice and her coaching style, so for me it was just a lot of growth but also finding a way to lead and how I can be there for the freshman, cause this is their first semester and their first season with us, so it was just a learning growth thing for me, but I had a lot of fun."

Nebraska Volleyball's Murray made the NCAA Championship All-Tournament Team, AVCA All-America Second Team, and AVCA All-Region Team in 2024. She also became the NCAA Lincoln Regional Most Outstanding Player for her efforts in the Regional finals.
