Two reasons she might have de-committed: Another highly-ranked OH in the same class (and from the same AAU team), Jadyn Petersen? Maybe there are other OHs in that recruiting class, too. also this from last January: UNI volleyball adds three transfers to 2023 rostersAll speculation on my part, of course... Maybe we will find out soon what Runde is up to.

The Yotes 2024 recruiting class is ranked as #5 in all of D1. That is really incredible. Coach Williamson and staff continue to raise the bar every year.
If you haven't been to the SCSC to watch the Yotes play in person, make it a priority to get there early in the upcoming 2023 season. You will be hooked after one match and will be back for more.

VB Adrenaline just released a video clip from an interview with the 4 USD commits for 2024 that competed together at the Midwest Battle. I assume there was more to the interview if you have a subscription.

Coach Williamson's comments on them (from the article)
Morgan Bode | Middle Blocker | Papillion, Neb. | Papillion South HS
"I am very excited for Morgan to join the Coyote volleyball program," Williamson said. "The way she plays the game fits into our system really well in the middle. Her work ethic is unmatched, and she consistently finds ways to impact matches. On the blocking end, her speed, length, and volleyball IQ allows her to disrupt the offensive production of the opposing team. On the offensive end, Morgan is able to run routes off of one and two feet efficiently and effectively."
Lauren Medeck | Outside Hitter | Papillion, Neb. | Papillion South HS
"Lauren is going to be a great addition to our program," Williamson said. "She is a physical six-rotation outside who can play the whole game at a very high level. Lauren can score in various ways as she can hit with range on both pins and from the backrow. She has very good ball control and has the physicality to be a shutdown blocker! Lauren has consistently played in big matches throughout her career. In these matches, you can see her competitiveness and ability to take over a match."
Audrey Nelson | Middle Blocker | Madison, SD | Madison HS
"I am so excited to keep Audrey home in South Dakota where she gets to represent her home state," said Williamson. "Audrey's athleticism is unmatched which has impacted her growth over the past few years. I am confident that she will thrive in our system while surrounded by people that are as competitive as her. She is very quick laterally which helps her get her hands on a lot of attacks while blocking while having to cover a lot of space. She has been a consistent attacker for both her high school and club teams while taking a lot of swings."
Carly Ries | Outside Hitter | Norfolk, Neb. | Norfolk HS
Williamson says "Carly is someone who has been coming to Coyote camps since she was a young kid and has grown into a player that will positively impact this program! Carly has the length and athleticism to become an extremely dynamic player and she has the ability to play on either the left or right-side pin. This versatility will be great for her and this program as we continue to find more depth within our program. Carly's genuine and cheerful personality is contagious, and I am confident that it will benefit our culture daily."

IDK if this is true or not, but looking at the "likes" of the recent "it's a great day to be a Yote" from Asst Coach Runde.... Macie Malchow's mom was one of the likes..... Macie Malchow, 5-10 SetterSioux Falls Washington Sanford Sports AAU twitter.com/maciemalchowSouth Dakota AA Miss Volleyball 2023 Argus Leader 2023 super six (all classes) PrepDig does not rank SD players Sports Illustrated "20 best setter in the nation" 2023 Her Twitter says "Gustie VB commit" - I'll assume this is the D-III Gustavus Adolphus College in St Peter, MN? Crazy we might be adding someone to this #5 ranked class! Also crazy that Malchow was not already picked up by a D-1 program. 5-10 isn't short for a setter, especially at the mid-major level.

Would be fantastic if true! OH’s obviously get all the glory, but great setters are invaluable!

Great way to grow the fan-base. I have to imagine she is a walk-on, but I won't assume anything, since this program doesn't typically publicize who is on scholarship.

Looks like the 2024 class must have come to campus recently. I seem to recall some similar photos from the 2023 class at the end of the school year. Great way to get them amped up for the coming offseason training! x.com/SDCoyotesVB/status/1780689395005239531I have to imagine Morgan Bode will get pushed into a contributing role right away, with our 5th-year twin towers graduating at the MB positions. Maybe she will start? Amelia Dugger will be healthy, so she is another wild-card. The competition will be fierce at the three starting hitter positions, where we have some established starters in Sealock, Laird and Loschen, but the incoming freshmen are highly ranked, and probably not wanting to redshirt... I'm pretty excited about the depth at OH and DS/L. Losing Harms is no small thing, but this could be another good season.
