Origin
and identity

Jordan Larson brought complete outside-hitter skills and leadership to the United States' first women's Olympic volleyball champions.

From a small Nebraska town to a collegiate title, Larson built her game around doing many jobs well. She joined the senior national team in 2009 and later became captain.

Olympic silver in London and bronze in Rio preceded the breakthrough gold in Tokyo. Larson was named MVP and best outside hitter at that tournament, recognition for a performance that went beyond scoring.
