A trio of Wisconsin Badgers standouts linked up under the USA Volleyball umbrella Monday.
In a photo shared by Wisconsin volleyball head coach Kelly Sheffield, former Badger greats Dana Rettke and Sarah Franklin joined setter Charlie Fuerbringer, roughly two weeks removed from their inclusion as members of the U.S. Women's Preliminary Roster for the 2026 Volleyball Nations League.
Charlie Fuerbringer, meanwhile, was one of six to participate in the 2026 Women’s National Team Red-Blue match on May 20 in Manhattan Beach, Calif. She previously represented her country as a member of the 2025 Women’s U21 National Team.
Rettke and Franklin were two of 30 players pinpointed as potential VNL roster members for the United States on May 13. The squad is slated to begin competition in Quebec City, Quebec, the first stop during its three-week stretch across the globe.
Fuerbringer, a 2024 All-Big Ten Second Team member, will look to follow in Rettke and Franklin's footsteps during her final seasons in Madison. Both Rettke and Frankli earned Big Ten Player of the Year nods during their tenures in Wisconsin and are arguably the most accomplished players to wear the Scarlet and Red.
