For Olympic gold medalist volleyball star Jordan Larson, the Nebraska Huskers are almost like her second home. Since her first year with the Huskers two decades ago, the outside hitter has seen her alma mater come a long way. Even after graduating from Lincoln, the 38-year-old had remained on campus in various roles despite her own professional responsibilities. But all good things come to an end.
In a recent announcement, the Huskers volleyball head coach John Cook revealed that his former student Jordan has decided to relinquish her position as a coaching staff. Huskers Illustrated’s Lincoln Arneal shared details of the announcement via a post on X on January 27. “Jordan Larson is stepping down from the Nebraska coaching staff,” reads the caption of the post which is accompanied by an excerpt of Cook’s statement.
“While I am disappointed we won’t have her on staff anymore, I am thankful to Jordan for all that she has done for our program over these past two seasons,” the veteran HC noted in his statement. Since joining the Nebraska volleyball staff in 2023, Larson has worked primarily with the team’s outside hitters.
