Emily Londot just bulldozed her way into MLV history, and it's about damn time. The Omaha Supernovas opposite hitter snagged the MLV Player of the Week award, making her only the fourth opposite in league history to do so. Londot isn't just playing volleyball; she's redefining it.
Londot's Unstoppable Rise
Last Friday, Londot lit up the Grand Rapids Rise like a Christmas tree with 17 kills and a filthy .417 hitting percentage. The Supernovas swept the match, making it their third straight win. And if you thought she was all offense, think again. Londot racked up 15 digs and even threw in a block for good measure.
A Star Among Stars
This isn't Londot's first rodeo. She was the No. 10 overall pick in the 2025 MLV Draft and is already racking up accolades faster than a TikTok trend. "Londot earns her second career Player of the Week honor," said Geoff Exstrom, Omaha's spokesperson. She's now part of an elite Supernova club, joining greats like Sarah Parsons and Bethania De La Cruz.
The Bigger Picture
Let's talk about why this is huge. Opposites are like the middle child in a volleyball family—often ignored but secretly the backbone. Londot's award is a game-changer, not just for her, but for every opposite hitter out there dreaming big.
What's Next?
The Supernovas are heading to San Diego to face the Mojo at Viejas Arena. Catch them Wednesday at 9 p.m. CDT on YouTube or tune in to the Supernovas Radio Network.
Emily Londot isn't just playing volleyball; she's rewriting its rules. Get ready, because she's about to make the MLV her playground.
