Emily Londot just sent shockwaves through Major League Volleyball, and the rest of the league better take notes. Londot, the Omaha Supernovas' opposite hitter and No. 10 overall pick in the 2025 MLV Draft, snagged the coveted MLV Player of the Week honor. And let's be real — she didn't just earn it; she owned it.
Opposites Are Here to Eat
In a league where opposites are often overlooked like the last slice of pizza at a party, Londot's recognition is a game-changer. She's the fourth opposite in MLV history to snatch this award, and it's about damn time. Her 17 kills and a career-best .417 hitting percentage during the Supernovas' sweep of the Grand Rapids Rise are numbers out of a video game.
Geoff Exstrom, spokesperson for the Supernovas, couldn't have put it better: "Londot becomes just the fourth opposite in league history to earn the award." You can almost hear the mic drop.
Supernovas Are Unstoppable
Londot's 18 points and 15 digs didn't just secure her a spot in the spotlight; they put the Supernovas on a three-match winning streak. That's right, Omaha is officially the team you don't want to face. They're cruising through the MLV like a hot knife through butter, and Emily Londot is the one wielding the blade.
What's Next?
If you think Londot's slowing down, you're dreaming. The Supernovas are gearing up for a face-off against the San Diego Mojo at Viejas Arena. First serve at 9 p.m. CDT this Wednesday. Catch the action live on YouTube or tune in to the Supernovas Radio Network.
The Verdict
Londot's rise is not just a win for her, but a massive W for all opposites in the MLV. She's making waves and taking names, and there’s no stopping her now. If you’re still doubting, just wait until she puts the San Diego Mojo on a poster.
Here's the hot take: Emily Londot isn’t just playing the sport; she's redefining it. Keep sleeping on the Supernovas, and they'll keep eating teams alive.
