Let’s give a nod to one of Nebraska Elite’s most consistent signal-callers. McMahon’s best moments have come on qualifier stages–a theme that persists in 2025. This Omaha Skutt Catholic junior gets her feet to the ball quickly and is not afraid to take risks to open up her hitters. Nebraska Elite has enjoyed a prosperous season among its 17s competitors, and athletes like McMahon are leading the way.

McMahon has been on our 2026 radar for a while. Her smooth setting and invaluable leadership have highlighted many Nebraska Elite outings at national qualifiers. This year’s Nebraska Elite 17 Motion squad has been a Midwest Power League mainstay, so we’ve caught up on everything that makes McMahon such a natural setter. She gets her feet to the ball and isn’t afraid to take risks when distributing the offense. That mentality will suit 17 Motion well in the upcoming gauntlet of events.

It doesn’t take long to figure out where Nebraska Elite 16 Nova gleans much of its on-court leadership. McMahon has been the subject of so many post-qualifier features, but her excellence is not limited to prominent events. 16 Nova has looked to McMahon’s stout setting and floor defense throughout the 2024 season, and she always delivers her best.

Next stop: Nebraska Elite. McMahon capitalized on a strong 2023 club season to enter our rankings, and the stakes will ramp up again this year. She’s a natural on-court leader who aids her team’s offense and defense at the same time. This setter is accustomed to racking up digs in the right back area and can also get physical along the net. McMahon’s performances at the 16s level will tell us a lot about her development with Nebraska Elite.

McMahon made a big jump in the Class of 2026 hierarchy when she directed the offense for her Nebraska Elite team last spring. Expect her to do the same with Nebraska Elite 16 Nova in the coming months, especially after McMahon continued her forward momentum at the Top 250 Expo. The Skutt Catholic sophomore reminded us how well she can set against the grain and get players in rhythm, regardless of the passes she’s given.

McMahon is part of a well-rounded platoon of setters that 15 Phoenix can deploy at any moment. We’ve seen McMahon harness her strengths in a variety of roles throughout the 2023 season. She can play in the frontcourt as a 5-1 setter, split time in the backcourt, and be a valuable vocal leader regardless of her on-court role.

McMahon plays quite a multi-faceted role for Nebraska Elite’s top 15s group, 15 Phoenix. She perhaps does her best work as a backcourt setter, where she plays fantastic floor defense and is even an attacking threat on the back row set-over.
