Rodriguez stated that every member of the Nebraska program has an 'amazing' nature and has played a crucial part ever since she stepped into this college arena. She also mentioned that this sort of support is difficult to find in any other program or University. She said (via Sports Illustrated):

"Every single person (that’s) a part of this program is just truly amazing people. They really changed my life. They just believed in me, every single person, every single day, from the moment I stepped on campus. You can’t find that anywhere. You truly can’t."

She further added:

"I’m just so grateful for every one. And I’ll say it for my entire life that this program was truly the best thing that ever happened to me."

Lexi Rodriguez spent all four University years at Nebraska and was also the team co-captain along with outside hitter, Merritt Beason.
