VCNebraska’s tremendous setter depth has been on full display on the qualifier circuit. We alluded to Hunnicutt’s new role with VCNebraska 16 Black, but she has competed like a returning asset to this stacked squad. She pilots three-hitter rotations with great finesse and has a knack for finding the hot hitter. Hunnicutt also has the foot speed we’d expect from a VCN setter, allowing her to snare passes drifting off the net. The Northern Lights Qualifier offered further testament to Hunnicutt’s leadership and sky-high ceiling.

Nebraska Christian is forming a habit of producing game-changing setters. Hunnicutt was a centerpiece of VCNebraska 15 Elite’s success this spring, so her emergence on the prep side is no surprise. This quick, efficient setter has dished out a whopping 9.7 assists per set en route to Nebraska Christian’s 5-1 start. Hunnicutt’s presence in the lineup has also allowed other Eagle starters to dial up their attacking skills in the front row. That could be the recipe for a tournament return this November.

Hunnicutt has had a steady hand in VCNebraska 15 Elite’s ascent throughout the 2025 season. We’ve documented 15 Elite’s progression from 15 USA bid earners to Bid Tournament champions to Open competitors. Hunnicutt elevated her game every step of the way and has emulated the success of so many past VCN setters. Her quickness and athletcism allow her to turn errant passes into in-system opportunities. 15 Elite has a clear leader at the setter spot as the squad rounds into postseason form.

Hunnicutt has distinguished herself among a deep cast of setters for VCNebraska 15 Elite. She can come off the bench and establish instant connections with all three hitters in the frontcourt. This Nebraska Christian standout was also a match-altering server at NLQ, delivering several key aces during 15 Elite’s long winning streak. VCNebraska has pulled in exceptional setters from Nebraska Christian before, and they’ve done it again.
