Nebraska Elite Volleyball: Staff
It Only Gets Better
![]() |
Nebraska Elite Volleyball is very excited to have Charlene Johnson-Tagaloa as our in-season setter trainer for the second season. When it comes to college and olympic volleyball, Charlene Johnson-Tagaloa is a name that turns heads. As a very recent assistant coach at the University of Nebraska, Charlene helped to guide the huskers to the 2006 National Championship. Because of Charlene's love for the game and her desire to help younger athletes, she has recently been inducted into the 2006 BYU Hall of Fame and will continue to treasure her experience playing on the 2000 Olympic team.
Charlene will be doing our weekly setter camps during the coming club volleyball season.
Welcome Back Charlene!
