Q&A with Laura Oh

Laura Oh redshirted in 2017, her first year as a Husker. She worked hard to add depth on multiple events, but did not see action in a meet.

She got off to a strong start outside the gym, as she was named to the Nebraska Scholar-Athlete Honor Roll in spring of 2017, as well as the Tom Osborne Citizenship Team in 2017 for her work in the community.

Laura took a few minutes from her academic and athletic schedule to answer some questions and give us a little insight into her life outside the gym.
