Bella Sade, a 6-2 middle blocker from Marion, IA, found herself as an Omaha Maverick before her junior high school season. While in high school, Sade had received awards that proved her excellence on the court. She was named to the Top 50 Juniors from PrepVolleyball.com and capped her senior campaign with a selection to the 2016 Iowa Girls Coaches Association Senior All-Star match. Sade was a three-year letter-winner for coach Roxanne Paulsen at Marion High School and helped her team make three straight state tournament appearances.
Sade knew she wanted to enter the Division I realm, but didn’t know where to take her efforts. After meeting with former head coach of the Mavericks, Rose Shires, Sade knew she found a match made in heaven.
After stepping foot on her seventh campus, Sade finally had found the feeling of home in Omaha.
She committed to the Mavericks and has earned herself over 13 awards and honors during her time here. She hopes to continue her parade of excellence during the fall of 2020.
