2008 Season: “I thought Nicole had a great junior season and she continues to improve in the areas that we’ve identified. She is one of the few players in the country who can make a significant impact in the front row as well as the back row. As she continues to step into more of a leadership role, she will continue to enhance her prospects for a future in professional volleyball. She is a great scorer and teammate.”
