Expert Analysis
Austin Kingsley | Prep Dig Scout
Premier Nebraska 17 Gold is surely a team to watch among the pool play “outsiders.” This group brings vast Open experience to the fold and clinched its 2025 GJNC berth through Kansas City’s Show Me Qualifier. Lauenstein has been a focal point of the team’s operation throughout, and she’s bringing even more all-around influence to the 17s circuit. We’ve grown accustomed to Lauenstein’s quick arm in the front row, but she has also become one of 17 Gold’s most productive servers, too. That versatility will be key to Premier Nebraska’s Elite ascent.

Lauenstein is one of the most well-rounded six-rotation outsides in Nebraska’s 2027 class. She’s a go-to attacker, an excellent passer, and has transformed matches through her lethal serve. Her Premier Nebraska 16 Gold had its big Open breakthrough at the Show Me Qualifier, an accomplishment that wouldn’t have been possible without Lauenstein’s versatility and leadership.

Read EvaluationJared Martinson | Prep Dig Scout
Lauenstein and Waverly reached this year’s Class B semifinals with a sophomore-stacked lineup. That bodes well for future seasons on the high school stage, but Lauenstein has already established herself as a dominant force. She led the Vikings in kills this fall while putting up one of Nebraska’s loftiest ace totals. Lauenstein soared past 70 aces this season after registering five in Waverly’s quarterfinal sweep over Bennington. This all-around game will serve Lauenstein well as she transitions to Premier Nebraska for club competition.

Lauenstein had a stellar freshman season with Waverly, but she has separated herself as a go-to leader as a sophomore. Her hitting efficiency has climbed over 100 points compared to her 2023 average–good enough for a 0.298 clip on the outside. This rise has come in conjunction with Lauenstein’s increased attacking volume to a substantial 3.6 kills per set. Waverly’s sophomore star can fill up every conceivable corner of the stat sheet, giving the Vikings more postseason aspirations this November.

Lauenstein was a major piece of Waverly’s offense last fall, but she has elevated her game to new heights against national competition. VCNebraska 15 Elite continued to lean on Lauenstein’s consistency through high-profile events like Triple Crown NIT, MEQ, and the Show Me Qualifier. This outside hitter thrives on quick tempos that open up big seams to hit through. As if the Class B prep scene couldn’t get any stronger, hitters like Lauenstein continue to surprise us on the club side.
