Austin Kingsley | Prep Dig Scout
Are we surprised to see Kucks piling up digs already? The Millard North libero made a quick entrance on the Class A stage and compiled 31 digs in the 2024 debut bout with Papillion-La Vista South. This effort came against one of Nebraska’s top high school offenses, so Kucks is not afraid to absorb some heat in the back row. Fearlessness and relentless pursuit are traits that Kucks will bring to Lipscomb University next fall.

Kucks has gone from a six-rotation outside hitter to a D1 commit at the libero position. What a journey. We were mesmerized early on by Kucks’ all-around skills, and she has just gotten better throughout her prep career. She took the reins of Millard North’s defense this fall after landing a late August commitment to Lipscomb. Kucks has also climbed the ladder at Premier Nebraska and could be due for her most impactful club season yet.

Kucks’ stock has absolutely soared over the past year, or longer. We first knew her as a six-rotation outside hitter whose craftiness was her strong suit. Giving up those hitting duties for a libero jersey has never kept Kucks down. Rather, she has developed into one of Nebraska’s best 2025 liberos and is a staple in the Millard North lineup. Kucks’ D1 commitment to Lipscomb is further testament to her outstanding work ethic and uncanny feel for locking down the end line.

It’s hard to miss the kind of impact that Kucks has on the Millard North lineup. She can pass a large chunk of the court in serve receive and is particularly comfortable in the middle-back area. That Zone 6 confidence might have something to do with Kucks’ background as an outside hitter, but the Lipscomb commit has more than proven her worth at libero, too. What a leader for this rising Mustang crew.

Kucks is making headlines for more than just her defensive prowess with Millard North. The Class of 2025 prospect just committed to Lipscomb while the Bison were in Lincoln to open their 2023 season. Kucks has backed up this big-time pledge with over five digs per set to get credit in early-season matches. These numbers came against elite competition, too.

Kucks soared up the dig leaderboards as a sophomore and can make an even bigger impact with Millard North this fall. The converted outside hitter notched 5.3 digs per set in 2022–one of the highest marks among Class A defenders. That is game-changing production.

Kucks’ do-it-all mentality has been a revelation in the Premier Nebraska gym. In past seasons, Kucks was primarily a high-flying outside hitter who could put an offense on her shoulders. She could still do those things this fall, too. But we’ve seen Kucks step into Premier 17 Black’s libero jersey and absolutely thrive. Her relentless defensive hustle produced an endless highlight reel that puts Kucks among Nebraska’s best 2025 liberos.

Granted, Kucks might not even play libero when high school action kicks off this fall. She’s already shown us some dynamic six-rotation attacking prowess and is one of Nebraska’s most exciting outside hitters in the 2025 class. But this year’s club season with Premier Nebraska has revealed Kucks’s incredible defensive instincts in the libero jersey, which only elevates this Millard North star’s greatness even more.
