USA Volleyball announced on Monday that former Huskers Jordan Larson and Nancy Metcalf were named to the U.S. Women's National Team Preliminary Roster for the 2012 World Grand Prix.
The U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team is presently ranked number one in the world. The 25-player roster will be reduced closer to the start of the event on June 8. The team, which has already qualified for the 2012 Olympic Games, will open competition against Germany in a Pool B match in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
Metcalf was a 2004 Olympian and a three-time AVCA First-Team All-American at Nebraska. Larson was a three-time All-American who led the Huskers to three NCAA Semifinals appearances.
