    The AVCA History Commission was formed as a subgroup to the AVCA Diversity Development Team on December 1, 2020. The History Commission’s purpose is to recognize, amplify, and celebrate the rich and diverse history of the sport of volleyball. The first phase of the Commission’s work will explore the contributions of Black Americans to the sport of volleyball. Phase 1 is timed to coincide with the 40th Anniversary of the founding of the American Volleyball Coaches Association. PHASe 1 | Vol. 1.14 Ogonna Nnamani silva Ogonna Nnamani silva Born in Bloomington, Illinois, Ogonna Nneka Nnamani prepped at University High School where she excelled as a scholar and two-sport athlete in volleyball and basketball. U-High would win back-to-back Class A state girls’ volleyball championships in 1999 and 2000 compiling a record 78-6 over those two seasons. Named the Gatorade National Player of the Year as a senior, Ogonna was widely considered the top high school prospect for her class and was recruited by the top women’s volleyball programs in the country. Ultimately, Ogonna chose to continue her academic and athletic pursuits at Stanford University playing for 2011 AVCA Hall of Fame inductee Coach John Dunning. As the top incoming freshman in women’s college volleyball, her impact on the Stanford program was immediate. The Cardinal squad would end the 2001 season with a national championship match sweep over Long Beach State and finish the year at 33-2. With 19 kills against LBSU, Nnamani would wrap up her freshman campaign as an AVCA All-American, Pac-10 and Volleyball Magazine Freshman of the Year, as well as earn a spot on the NCAA All-Tournament Team for her performance in the championship match.
