With the first two weeks of the Nebraska high school volleyball season in the books, we combed through the MaxPreps volleyball statistics leaderboards in search of the Cornhusker State's Top 10 performances. And there were plenty.
Starting with Milford outside hitter Hannah Kepler's 29 kill, 21-dig performance through Papillion-LaVista star Norah Sis' near quadruple-double, Cornhusker State volleyballers appear to be in midseason form.
Gretna sophomore Skylar Mccune pushed Kepler at the top with a quadruple-20 performance. However, Kepler's 29 kills and .400 hitting percentage was too much to overcome.

Gretna makes the No. 2 and No. 3 lines with Lauren Anderson's performance at the service line, while Elkhorn South's Madi Woodin sits fourth with a state-high 62 set assists against Omaha Marian. Brooklyn Schram of Papillion-LaVista rounds out the Top 5 with her work at the service line and running the Monarch offense in a four-set win over Papillion-LaVista South.
Classes A, C1, D1 and D2 are all represented in this week's Top 10. But that doesn't mean there weren't magnificent performances in Classes B and C2 as well. Gering setter Macey Boggs' 11 block, 10 dig and 33 set assist line against Alliance led Class B through last weekend, while Kalynn Meyer of Superior took the top spot in Class C2 with 23 kills in a win over Grand Island Central Catholic.
