“I am so extremely excited to announce my verbal commitment to continue my academic and athletic career at the University of Nebraska!” Robinson said on Instagram. “First, I want to thank God for giving me this opportunity.

“Third, I want to thank my coaches (past and present) for believing in me and pushing me to get to this point in my volleyball career. Lastly, I want to thank Coach Cook and the coaching staff for believing in me to play volleyball at the next level! Don’t worry, this is ONLY THE START OF SOMETHING BIG WITH MY NEW FAMILY!”

During her sophomore season at Ridge Point, Robinson recorded 316 kills, 2.4 kills per set and hit .279. She only played in three sets as a freshman on varsity in 2022. She averaged 0.7 blocks per set and recorded a team-high 94 total blocks. In her first full season on varsity, Robinson was second in kills per set and hitting percentage.

Robinson plays club for Houston Skyline. She and Skyline’s 15 Royal team placed third at nationals in 2023. She is teammates with Texas outside hitter commit Halle Thompson.

The 6-foot-3 pin hitter attended Nebraska’s 2023 Dream Team Camp and was able to get a feel for the facility and coaches.

Robinson joins 6-foot-1 outside hitter Gabby DiVita, who is from Grosse Pointe, Michigan, in the class of 2026. DiVita, who averaged 5.6 kills per set for Grosse Pointe South in 2023, was NU’s first commitment. The Huskers are still on the lookout for a middle blocker.
