While the players up front should be solid, they'll need some players to consistently get them the ball in good spots and on time, which was an issue at times last year. At setter, it'll be interesting to see how it shakes out with Kelley Johnson back and battling Eke Denneson, a South Florida transfer. They need better play out of the Liberos too and return Taylor Quan and Ava Schmoll, while bringing in Nora Raasch and Logan O'Brien, who is North Florida transfer.
On the recruiting front, NDSU picked up recent 2023 commitments from 6'2" MB Emma Tallman out of Iowa and OH Lauren Jansen out of Illinois
