In both 1987 and 1988, she was also named All-District 11, team captain and NWU’s best offensive player. Verbeck earned a total of six All-Tournament team honors during her career, and as a senior, she helped lead the team to its best overall record in Nebraska Wesleyan volleyball history (45-9) and a runner-up NIAC finish (8-2). NWU advanced to the NAIA District 11 Playoffs in three of Verbeck’s four seasons.

            She still holds a pair of school records, including career kills (1,508) and assisted blocks in a season (136). Verbeck also ranks among the top 10 all-time at NWU on eight other charts, including ninth in career kills per game and her single-season totals rank third and fourth in kills, fourth and seventh in kills per game, seventh in solo and assisted blocks, second in total blocks and fifth in total blocks per game.
