Libero” award after her gold medal winning performance in the 2020
Tokyo Olympic Games! Justine played at the University of Nebraska
where she was a two time All-American, two time Big Ten Defensive
Player of the Year, National Champion, AND finished her career as
Nebraska's all-time career digs leader. (Yep, ICONIC!) After
college she joined the United States national team where she spent
three years competing vigorously for that one spot in the Tokyo
2020 games. After years of hard work and late nights in the gym,
Justine was named the best libero of the 2021 FIVB Volleyball
Nations League tournament and finally solidified her roster spot to
be an Olympina. She led the games in serve reception percentage and
helped the US Women's National Volleyball team bring home their
first ever gold medal! In this episode, Justine shares her entire
journey to the olympics games, covering everything from her first
game as a libero in high-school to the emotional team huddle before
winning gold. Whether you’re a die hard volleyball fan or just
somebody trying to achieve your dreams, this episode is proof that
hard work and dedication pays off! Conair: conair.com + search
