is an elite American libero now playing professionally for LOVB Nebraska. During her standout career at Nebraska (2021–2024), she etched her name into the record books with a program-best 1,897 career digs, earning four AVCA All-America selections, three Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year or Libero of the Year honors, and becoming the first libero named AVCA National Freshman of the Year. A 5’ 5” giant on defense, she consistently anchored Nebraska's backcourt with over 4 digs per set as a freshman and maintained elite passing and digging stats throughout her tenure, helping the Huskers to multiple deep NCAA tournament runs. Transitioning to the professional ranks, Rodriguez signed with LOVB Nebraskan immediately after her college career and quickly made an impact, earning First‑Team LOVB Icon (All‑Star) honors in the league’s inaugural season. Her journey is marked not only by statistical dominance but also by resilience, consistency, and a pioneering role in elevating the libero position.
