Husker fans, make room in your schedules and break out the volleyballs because something special is coming our way!
Nebraska volleyball star Rebekah Allick is bringing her trademark moves to North Sioux City on Wednesday. It will be taking place on July 9. She will be having a fan-driven meet-and-greet at Bob & Ellen's RTI Threads from 8:30 to 10 a.m. CDT.
It will be a morning of selfies, signings, and NIL-sanctioned gear. It does not occur on a regular basis for one of the pillars of the Nebraska volleyball team to roll into town. So get ready for an explosion of Husker pride that you do not want to miss.
Allick has been a crowd favorite for a reason. She is a force on the net, and her role as middle blocker for the Huskers is crucial to both offense and defense. Her hard-hitting big swings, attacking blocks, and high-energy leadership on the floor have made her the solid performer she is. Particularly as a key part of the team's toughest Big Ten fights. Whatever it is that her momentum-swinging kills or her celebratory personality, Allick plays with the kind of heart that appeals to fans.
Her influence extends well beyond the stat sheet, however. Allick is a leader in the locker room and on the court.
Now she's taking that leadership out to the community, spending some of her off-season giving fans in the Siouxland area a chance to meet her in person.
This greet-and-meet is not simple handshakes and smiles; it's also a direct product of Rebekah Allick's Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) agreement with RTI Threads. Attendees will get to claim unique merchandise with Allick's name and unique designs.
From tees to hoodies and hats, the clothing is all about wearing a favorite player's colors. And since items might be a one-time offering on this trip, it's also a golden opportunity to gather one-of-a-kind mementos.
Better still, all items and signatures go to support Allick, making this the ultimate fan-athlete experience. These kinds of NIL events are changing the college game-day experience, and Nebraska student-athletes are at the forefront.
