Volleyball pre-serve movements or hand signs for each player

Not that it matters a whole lot, but I’m curious…

I’ve seen the team on TV do certain movements or hand signs before each Husker player serves. Most of them are self explanatory, but I went to the VB match against Iowa last Friday (it was awesome, my first Husker VB match), and there were some people around me trying to figure them all out.

I helped them figure out the ones they didn’t know, but there is one that I’m not aware of:

**Laney Choboy’s… the student section and the sideline players bend forward slightly at the hip and sway their arms left and right.**

The only thing I can think of, is that she sometimes takes that position while playing defense in the back row.

I’ll add a list of the other ones for anyone else that isn’t aware or for correction if any are wrong. A few of the players either don’t serve in their role or I have not seen serve and/or have not seen what the students or sideline players do.
