Zimmerman has maintained a 3.91 GPA in the classroom. She has signed a National Letter of Intent to play volleyball on scholarship at Creighton University this fall.
A devoted member of her church community and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Zimmerman has volunteered locally on behalf of the Belmont Community Center, youth volleyball programs and the Matt Talbot Community Kitchen and Outreach Center. “Jaela Zimmerman is a great volleyball player,” said Brandi Sladky, head coach at Bishop Neumann High. “She’s so much more than just a great hitter. She passes well, she plays great defense and she’s a great motivator for her team too.”
