Backemeyer captured our attention when she led the charge for last year’s Nebraska Juniors 15 Black team. The Elmwood-Murdock sophomore can play around the dial as a 5-1 setter, or she can shoulder attacking duties along the net if needed. Her distribution skills took precedence with the Knights last fall, culminating in 7.7 assists per set for Elmwood-Murdock’s underclassman signal-caller. Backemeyer’s wide-ranging roles will keep evolving through another year in the Nebraska Juniors gym.

This long list of responsibilities might be daunting at the 15s level, but Backemeyer can handle it all.
