Expert Analysis
Austin Kingsley | Prep Dig Scout
We’re starting this feature with a fascinating wildcard pick. We haven’t witnessed many setter reps from Hern throughout her prep career, but she showed us a new wrinkle at Sunday’s Power League. The Omaha Marian athlete has primarily been a right-side hitter in the Nebraska Juniors gym. She still carries her frontcourt attacking role for 18 Black, but she earned some opportunities to set out of the back row, too. It’s never too late to gain new perspectives on prep athletes.

Hern has been a mainstay in our 2025 rankings for some time, especially with Omaha Marian having so many talented 2025s on its roster. On the club side, Hern has put together a stout 2023 season with Nebraska Juniors 16 Black. That culminated in an impressive wave of matches at AAU Nationals with Hern taking command of 16 Black’s right-side hitter position.

Hern gets a nod on this feature for her ability to do a little bit of everything. She is a classic setter-opposite who has already compiled some highlight moments with Nebraska Juniors, most recently as a hitter. As if Hern’s strong showings with 16 Black aren’t enough, the Omaha Marian standout will likely take on a major attacking role on the prep side this fall as the Crusaders hope to reclaim their spot among the state’s best.

Finally, we paying a visit to Nebraska Juniors for another pin hitter who has been thriving for a while. Hern’s physical presence is a huge asset that 16 Black is keen to use in pivotal moments. Not only will Hern kill the ball with authority, but her blocking was an important piece of Nebraska Juniors’ success in Omaha.

Hern’s rise up the 2025 leaderboards is only just getting started. The Omaha Marian opposite hit for an impressive percentage with the Crusaders and will likely do the same with Nebraska Juniors this spring. Our perception of Nebraska’s 2025 hitters continues to evolve, and Hern is a good example of this ever-changing landscape.
