<p>Let’s keep the VCNebraska previews going! It’s an exciting time of year as we get geared up for the club season, and we’ve already covered plenty of teams with serious title potential. On the VCN side, previews for 18 Elite, 18 Black, and 17 Elite are already published. Check them out!</p> <p>Now, it’s time for a glance at 17 Black. This talented group features a variety of players from around the Nebraska prep landscape, so I’m anxious to see how it all comes together!</p> <p>Here are some names to know for VCNebraska 17 Black.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>More Lincoln Standouts</strong></p> <p>Like we’ve seen in other VCN features, the big story with 17 Black is the Lincoln talent that dominates this roster.</p> <p>[player_tooltip player_id="152111" first="Faith" last="Van Eck"] is a talented Lincoln High libero who has turned into one of the best all-around players in the Star City. She has even shown a willingness to hit in the front row if necessary. Her ball control skills will once again be an asset in the VCN gym.</p> <p>Van Eck is joined by fellow Lincolnite and defensive specialist [player_tooltip player_id="59195" first="Brynn" last="Carey"]. This Lincoln East product is another fun player to watch with her veteran leadership and six-rotation abilities.</p> [caption id="attachment_168304" align="alignright" width="238"]<img class="wp-image-168304" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pd/uploads/2021/12/15-Lanie-Brott-180x300.jpg" alt="" width="238" height="397" /> Brott[/caption] <p>You can add Pius X’s [player_tooltip player_id="171629" first="Lanie" last="Brott"] to this list. She made a big impression at the Prep Dig Iowa Top 250 Expo recently, and her stock continues to grow as she gains more experience. Brott’s high school teammate, <strong>Claire Gokie</strong>, also joins the fray as a setter who has already had plenty of highlight moments with VCN.</p> <p>Chloe Fitzgibbon is another name to watch here. She’s a Lincoln Southeast Knight who has the skills to play in the middle or on the pin. In all, this is a stacked group representing Lincoln’s high schools.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Locking Down the Net</strong></p> <p>The rest of this 17 Black roster can be characterized by players who know how to attack and defend in the frontcourt.</p> <p>Waverly’s [player_tooltip player_id="171630" first="Kara" last="Kassebaum"] was one of our big stock risers in the 2023 class, and now she has a chance to build on that momentum with VCN.</p> <p>The middle blocker spot is stacked, too. <strong>Rylie Huff</strong> and <strong>Hannah Schilz</strong> have looked comfortable in their big roles with Grand Island and Milford, respectively, and they’ll factor heavily in 17 Black’s success. <strong>Madeline Oetting</strong> is another name to mention in this section, and she can play nearly any position on the court.</p> <p>On the left pin, look out for <strong>Margaret Haarberg</strong>. She’s a 2024 who’s playing a year up on this team, but she certainly won’t seem out of place. Haarberg showed a fast arm and mature all-around game when she helped Kearney Catholic to the Class C1 title match this fall. That experience will help boost her confidence heading into a promising campaign with 17 Black.</p>
