COMPLIANCE GUIDELINES FOR BOOSTERS

The University of Nebraska Athletic Department takes great pride in abiding by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and the Big Ten Conference rules and guidelines that govern Division I competition. For the benefit of the many alumni, fans and booster club members who are so active in supporting and assisting the Huskers throughout the year, we would like to remind everyone of a few definitions and rules that apply to all athletic representatives and boosters.

NCAA PRINCIPLES

Institutional Control It is the responsibility of the University of Nebraska to control its intercollegiate athletic program in compliance with the rules and regulations of the NCAA. Responsibility The University of Nebraska’s responsibility for the conduct of its program includes responsibility for the actions of its staff members and for the actions of any other individual, booster or organization engaged in activities promoting the athletic interests of the institution. Compliance The University of Nebraska must monitor its program to assure compliance and to identify and report to the NCAA instances in which compliance has not been achieved. An institution found to have violated NCAA rules is subject to disciplinary and corrective actions as determined by the NCAA. Questions and Answers for Fans, Boosters, Alumni and Representatives of Athletic Interests

DEFINITIONS

Q: What is a booster? A: Someone who belongs to a University of Nebraska athletic booster club; promotes or makes financial donations to the athletic department or a specific Husker team; assists in the recruitment of prospective student-athletes; employs, gives benefits to, or provides services to a student-athlete, a prospective student-athlete or the relative/friends of either. REPRESENTATIVE OF ATHLETIC INTEREST (I.E. BOOSTERS), NCAA BYLAW 13 Q: Who is a Prospective Student-Athlete? A: A prospective student-athlete is a student who has started classes for the ninth grade or above, including students in prep schools and junior colleges as well as students who have officially withdrawn from a four-year institution and plan to transfer to another institution. In addition, a student who has not started classes for the ninth grade becomes a prospective student-athlete if the institution or a Nebraska booster provides the individual or the individual’s relatives or friends with any financial assistance or benefits that the institution does not provide to prospective students in general. A good rule of thumb is to treat ALL STUDENTS as prospects. Q: Who is a Student-Athlete? A: A student-athlete is a student whose enrollment was solicited by a member of the Nebraska athletic staff or other representative of athletic interests with a view toward the student’s ultimate participation in the intercollegiate athletic program. Q: What is Contact? A: Contact is ANY face-to-face encounter between a prospect, or the prospect’s parent or legal

guardian, and a Nebraska staff member or athletic representative during which any dialogue occurs. Q: What is Recruiting? A: Recruiting is any solicitation of a prospect or a prospect’s family member (or guardian) by an institutional staff member or by athletic representative of the institution, for the purpose of securing the prospect’s enrollment and ultimate participation in Nebraska’s intercollegiate athletic program.

GUIDELINES

Q: Who is a Booster? A: Someone who belongs to a University of Nebraska athletic booster club; promotes or makes financial donations to the athletic department or a specific Husker team; assists in the recruitment of prospective student-athletes; employs, gives benefits to, or provides services to a student-athlete, a prospective student-athlete or the relative/friends of either. REPRESENTATIVE OF ATHLETIC INTERESTS (I.E., BOOSTERS), NCAA BYLAW 13 Q: What constitutes impermissible contact by a Booster? A: Phone calls to prospects (9th to 12th grade) and their relatives placed for recruiting purposes (questions about the athletic program at Nebraska must be directed to the coach); writing, paging, text messages or instant messages to a prospect to encourage Nebraska attendance; contact with a prospect at a high school or club contest; contact with a prospect or his/her coach, principal, or counselor to evaluate the prospect; visiting the prospect's educational institution to pick up videotape or transcripts for evaluation purposes; contacting a prospect to congratulate him/her for signing a National Letter of Intent to attend Nebraska; giving anything of value to a prospect to induce him/her to attend Nebraska; contact of any kind while the prospect is on the Nebraska campus for an official or unofficial visit. RECRUITING CONTACTS, NCAA BYLAW 13 Q: What are the rules of employment for a student-athlete? A: A student-athlete may be employed during the academic year or summer vacation period; receive compensation equal to the going rate for similar services in the locale; receive compensation only for work performed; accept employment from more than one employer and earn unlimited income; receive benefits provided to all other employees; teach sport-related individual skill instruction or fee-for-lesson sessions. A student-athlete may not conduct personal sport camps or promote, market, advertise or endorse a commercial business or product. Only benefits that are authorized by NCAA legislation shall be provided to and accepted by a student-athlete. It is not permissible for a studentathlete to receive a benefit that is the result of a

14 ALL-TIME NCAA TOURNAMENT APPEARANCES

"special" arrangement by an institutional employee, booster, employer or fan. EMPLOYMENT, NCAA BYLAW 12 Q: What are non-permissible benefits?

Only benefits authorized by NCAA legislation shall be provided to and accepted by a student-athlete. It is not permissible for a student-athlete to receive a benefit that is the result of a "special" arrangement by an institutional employee, booster, employer or fan). BENEFITS AND PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT, NCAA BYLAW 16 Q: What types of promotional activities may the student-athlete be permitted to participate? A: Charitable, educational or non-profit promotions and events with requested approval from the Athletic Compliance Office prior to the event. Q: What types of promotional activities are not permissible?

2019-20 NEBRASKA WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

MORE EXPERIENCED HUSKERS BRING IT; After a season of learning from the school of hard knocks, close calls and an unprecedented number of narrow losses, a more experienced Nebraska women’s basketball team plans to “Bring IT” in 2019-20. Last season, Nebraska featured four freshmen who combined for the most points (893) by a group of Husker freshmen since 1981-82. The youth movement provided promise for the future, but the Huskers lost 10 games by six points or less on their way to a 14-16 season. The Huskers displayed growth throughout the season, notching a 9-9 Big Ten mark that included three wins by six or fewer points from Jan. 20 to the end of the season. The 2019-20 Huskers feature three-year starters in All-Big Ten guard Hannah Whitish and senior wing Nicea Eliely. They also bring back experienced junior starters Kate Cain and Taylor Kissinger along with a sophomore class that features explosive talent in Sam Haiby, Leigha Brown and Ashtyn Veerbeek. In all, Nebraska returns its top seven scorers from a year ago. Although Nebraska must replace departed senior Maddie Simon (6.8 ppg, 3.1 rpg), it also returns sophomore starter Kayla Mershon, fifth-year senior point guard Kristian Hudson and senior forward Grace Mitchell, while adding Australian U19 National Team forward Isabelle Bourne and fellow freshmen Trinity Brady and Makenzie Helms. “We feel excited and optimistic about the season, as we work to build on lessons learned last year and throughout the offseason," Coach Amy Williams said. “Returning all but one player and adding some talented newcomers has led to the optimism and expectations we have for ourselves.” Last year, Nebraska went 4-10 in games decided by two possessions, and the Huskers believe they let losses happen because of a lack of urgency. That understanding led to the team’s 2019-20 mantra “Bring IT.” The Huskers are asking themselves to practice and play with heightened intensity and emotion every time they take the court. They are also committed to “Invest Together” to increase their trust in each other on and off the floor. “Our foreign tour this summer provided some incredible once-in-a-lifetime experiences and kick-started our team cohesiveness and understanding of each other,” Williams said. "We were also able to address and work on some specific areas of concern such as pace of play and rebounding.” Williams, the Big Ten Coach of the Year after leading the Huskers to the 2018 NCAA Tournament, hopes to lead Nebraska back to the postseason in 2020. “Overall, I am incredibly proud of the growth of our upperclassmen in leadership,” Williams said. “They have been focused and driven to ensure that this team is invested.” Whitish, Eliely, Cain and Kissinger were key players in Nebraska’s trip to the Big Dance in 2018. Whitish was a second-team All-Big Ten choice in 2018 and an honorable-mention pick in 2019. The 5-9 guard led the Big Red in scoring (10.1 ppg) and assists (4.3 apg) for the second straight season in 2019. Whitish enters her senior season needing just 34 points tor reach 1,000 in her career, while needing just 37 assists to reach the 400 career mark in that category.

A two-time All-Big Ten selection, Hannah Whitish leads the Huskers into the 2019-20 season as Nebraska's top scorer the past two years. Whitish is on pace to reach career milestones in points (1,000), assists (400) and three-pointers made (200) early in her senior season. She is also just five three-pointers away from becoming the third Husker with 200 career threes. "We are happy with the growth Hannah has shown this offseason, particularly in the leadership category," Williams said. "She is entering this season extremely motivated to make her mark here at Nebraska and return to the NCAA Tournament." The 6-1 Eliely has started 84 career games and had a career-high 54 steals, while averaging 7.9 points per game as a junior. One of the Big Ten’s top defenders, Eliely will be key in helping improve a defense that allowed 70.1 points per game in 2019. "Nicea is poised to have a great senior season," Williams said. "She has committed to more time in the gym, and it definitely showed in the three games we played in Europe this summer. She is probably our most complete player, and we will look for her to make big contributions on both sides of the ball this year." Cain, a 6-5 junior, joins Eliely as a defensive anchor. Cain carries 179 career blocks after setting the school season record with 100 rejections as a freshman. She added 79 last year and needs 60 to claim Nebraska’s career record in that category. "We are very excited about the growth Kate has shown since the completion of last season," Williams said. "She has a different, more aggressive and positive mindset, and it is making a difference in her play. In Europe, she was much more mobile and moved better on both ends of the court." Kissinger made 24 starts and averaged 8.9 points while leading the Big Ten and ranking

fourth in the nation in three-point percentage (.456) as a sophomore. She helped the Huskers average 72.4 points – 3.6 more points per game than 2018. "Taylor is coming off a very good sophomore season where she finished as one of the top-five three-point shooters in the country," Williams said. "She is motivated now that she is an upperclassman to broaden her skills and help our team become a better defensive and rebounding team." While those four Huskers may provide the most experience for Nebraska, Brown, Haiby, Veerbeek and Mershon supply the ingredients for the most growth. Haiby was NU’s No. 2 scorer (10.0 ppg) while playing 21 minutes per game. She also led Nebraska with 106 free throw attempts and will look to put even more pressure on the opposition as a sophomore. “Playing with a consistent sense of urgency has been a focus for Sam this offseason,” Williams said. “We have also seen a commitment to work on the consistency of her perimeter shot, and she is shooting with more confidence.” The 6-1 Brown showed moments of explosiveness as a freshman. She was Nebraska’s No. 3 scorer (9.6 ppg) despite playing less than 19 minutes per contest. She had an outstanding offseason, averaging a team-best 19.7 points on NU’s three-game tour of Europe. Her toughness and leadership could be driving forces for Nebraska’s growth. “Leigha has been attacking things with a different mindset since the end of last season,” Williams said. “She has a different level of intensity and a different confidence about her.”

INVEST TOGETHER FOR BIG RED GROWTH Veerbeek averaged 6.9 points and 5.5 rebounds in less than 17 minutes per game last season. The 6-2 forward from Sioux Center, Iowa, can score at all three levels, and has a variety of moves around the basket. She is also an excellent free throw shooter, giving her a full arsenal of offensive weapons. She put her explosiveness on full display with 19 points and eight rebounds in just 22 minutes in Nebraska's win at Illinois on Jan. 17. She added 14 points and nine rebounds in 22 minutes in a win at Purdue two weeks later. "Moving into her sophomore season, Ashtyn is feeling more comfortable with our system and her teammates, which is allowing her to be a more dangerous threat," Williams said. "She knows where her opportunities are going to come, so she is shot-ready and looking to score." While Veerbeek showed her explosiveness as a freshman, Mershon provided reliability and consistency inside for the Huskers. Although she averaged just 3.2 points and 3.0 rebounds per game, Mershon started 14 games, including 13 Big Ten contests. "Kayla is a very unselfish player who takes pride in doing the little things right," Williams said. "She led our team in assist-to-turnover ratio last year as a freshman and showed an ability to lock in to scouting report defense. That dependability with increased rebounding effort should equate to a great sophomore season." Another young forward could add to Nebraska's quality and depth inside this season. Freshman Isabelle Bourne, who spent the summer with the Australian U19 National Team, could make an immediate impact. The 6-2 Bourne averaged 8.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 23 minutes per game while helping the Gems to a silver medal at the World Cup. The Australians pushed the USA U19 team to overtime in the gold medal game in Bangkok, Thailand at the end of July. Bourne, who was also a member of the U17 and U18 Australian National Teams and the Australian U17 3-on-3 Team, brings an extraordinary amount of high level international experience to the Husker roster. "We are so excited to have Issie in a Husker uniform," Williams said. "She spent her summer training and competing with some of the best players in the world with Team Australia, and those experiences will help her make the transition to Division I college basketball. She knows how to work and how to win, and know that will help our team." Fellow freshmen Trinity Brady and Makenzie Helms complete Nebraska's three-player freshman class. Brady, who was one of the top high school players in Indiana two years ago before playing her senior season at Hamilton Heights Christian Academy in Tennessee, gives Nebraska a big, versatile presence on the wing. "Our coaching staff has been very impressed with Trintity's coachability and how quickly she picks things up," Williams said. "She is already one of our better help-defenders and she is determined and focused. She brings a fun, upbeat personality to our team, and we need that energy." Helms, the 2019 Connecticut Player of the Year, spent the offseason recovering from surgeries on her legs to relieve pain caused by compartment syndrome - something Nebraska

Coach Amy Williams had experience with as a player herself. Although Helms was limited during the offseason and did not play in Europe, she was approaching full speed at the start of fall practice and could supply depth in the Husker backcourt. As a high school senior, Helms averaged 26.5 points, 7.4 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 4.3 steals at East Haven High School. She was rated as the No. 27 point guard in the nation by ESPN. As a team, the Huskers will shoot to "Bring IT" from start-to-finish, beginning with an exhibition game against Rogers State at Pinnacle Bank Arena (Nov. 2). Rogers State provided Coach Williams with her first head coaching job, and the Oklahoma school currently features former Husker Jasmine Cincore as an assistant coach. The Big Red open regular-season play against another former Husker when Alabama A&M comes to Lincoln. The Bulldogs are led by Margaret Richards, who played for coaches Paul Sanderford and Connie Yori at Nebraska as a four-year letterwinner (2001-04). Alabama A&M also features Lincoln Northeast High School graduate Nigeria Jones and Omaha North guard Dariauna Lewis. The game with Alabama A&M, which is scheduled for a special noon tip on Wednesday, Nov. 6, will be preceded by the Nebraska Life Skills Sportsmanship Pep Rally on the court at Pinnacle Bank Arena. The Huskers make their first road trip by traveling to 2019 NCAA Tournament qualifier Missouri (Nov. 10). They return home for a fourgame stand featuring Morgan State (Nov. 14), SIUE (Nov. 17), Southern (Nov. 20) and Creighton (Nov. 24). The game with SIUE will be part of Alumni Weekend, when the Huskers will honor members of the 2010 Big 12 Champion and

NCAA Sweet 16 team on the 10th anniversary of their undefeated regular season in 2009-10. The Huskers will spend Thanksgiving in Las Vegas at the South Point Shootout, where they will face USC (Nov. 29) and Sacred Heart (Nov. 30), before returning to Pinnacle Bank Arena to take on perennial power Duke in the Big Ten/ ACC Challenge (Dec. 4). Nebraska closes non-conference play at home against Oral Roberts (Dec. 14) and Manhattan (Dec. 22), before opening Big Ten play at home against defending Big Ten Tournament champion and NCAA Elite Eight qualifier Iowa (Dec. 28). The game with Iowa tips off an 18-game conference schedule that includes home battles with Minnesota (Jan. 4), Wisconsin (Jan. 9), Michigan (Jan. 19), Purdue (Jan. 22), Ohio State (Feb. 2), Indiana (Feb. 9), Penn State (Feb. 13) and Illinois (Feb. 22). The Huskers open their nine-game Big Ten road schedule at Michigan State (Dec. 31), followed by road trips to Rutgers (Jan. 12), Maryland (Jan. 16), Wisconsin (Jan. 25), Minnesota (Jan. 30), Iowa (Feb. 6), Northwestern (Feb. 16), Ohio State (Feb. 19) and Indiana (Feb. 27). The Big Ten Tournament returns to Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis (March 4-8), before the NCAA Tournament Selection Show reveals the 64-team field on March 16. NCAA first and second rounds will be held March 20-23, before Regionals are held in Dallas, Texas, Fort Wayne, Ind., Greenville, S.C., and Portland, Ore., March 27-30. The NCAA Women's Final Four will take place at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, April 3-5.

Entering her fourth-year as a starter, Nicea Eliely is one of the Big Ten's best defenders. The 6-1 wing from Colorado Springs has a chance to become just the 10th Husker in history to produce 200 career steals. She enters her senior season with 136 career steals. 14 ALL-TIME NCAA TOURNAMENT APPEARANCES

2019-20 NEBRASKA WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

BIG TEN CONFERENCE Known as one of intercollegiate sports’ most successful undertakings, the Big Ten is home to a lineage of legendary names and an ongoing tradition of developing strong leaders. Even in its infancy, the conference established itself as the preeminent collection of institutions in the nation, where the pursuit of academic excellence prevailed as the definitive goal. The Big Ten is a national leader in intercollegiate athletics on and off the field, as schools have combined to win more than 450 team and 1,800 individual national championships. The history of the Big Ten traces back nearly 125 years to the Palmer House hotel in Chicago, where on Jan. 11, 1895, thenKevin Warren Purdue president James H. Smart and leaders from the University of Commissioner Chicago, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, Northwestern and Wisconsin set out to organize and develop principles for the regulation of intercollegiate athletics. At that meeting, a blueprint for the administration of college athletics under the direction of appointed faculty representatives was outlined. The presidents’ first known action “restricted eligibility for athletics to bona fide, full-time students who were not delinquent in their studies.” That important legislation, along with other legislation that followed in coming years, served as the primary building block for intercollegiate athletics. On Feb. 8, 1896, one faculty member from each of those seven universities met at the same Palmer House and officially established the mechanics of the conference, which was officially incorporated as the “Intercollegiate Conference Athletic Association” in 1905. Indiana and Iowa became the eighth and ninth members in 1899. In 1908, Michigan briefly withdrew, and in 1912 Ohio State joined the conference, bringing its membership back to nine. Upon Michigan’s return in 1917, the conference was first referred to as the “Big Ten” by media members, and that name was eventually incorporated in 1987. As the 1900s opened, faculty representatives established rules for intercollegiate athletics that were novel for the time. As early as 1904, the faculty approved legislation that required eligible athletes to meet entrance requirements and to have completed a full year’s work, along with having one year of residence. In 1901, the first Big Ten Championship event was staged when the outdoor track and field championships were held at the University of Chicago. The debut event marked what is now a staple of conference competition. Today, the Big Ten sponsors 28 official sports, 14 for men and 14 for women, including the addition of men’s ice hockey and men’s and women’s lacrosse over the last four years. Big Ten schools compete in a total of 42 sports, furthering the conference’s commitment to broad-based programming and providing more participation opportunities than any conference in the country. One of the conference’s proudest traditions began in 1902 when Michigan faced Stanford in the Rose Bowl, the nation’s first bowl game. Big Ten teams appeared in Pasadena twice before the conference signed an exclusive contract with the Tournament of Roses in 1946, making it the first bowl game with permanent conference affiliations. Coupling the academic goals set forth by the leaders of the charter members of the conference and their steadfast commitment to athletics, the conference instituted the Big Ten Medal of Honor in 1915. It is awarded annually by each conference institution to a student of the graduating class who has attained the greatest proficiency in scholarship and athletics. For more than 100 years, it has been the most prestigious honor a student competing in Big Ten athletics can receive. In 1922, Major John L. Griffith became the conference’s first “Commissioner of Athletics.” Griffith was the first of six men to assume the role of commissioner in the conference’s history, followed by Kenneth L. “Tug” Wilson in 1945, Bill Reed in 1961, Wayne Duke in 1971 and James E. Delany in 1989. Those five served prior to current Commissioner Kevin Warren, who assumed the role on Sept. 16, 2019. Delany announced his retirement on March 4, 2019, concluding a 30-year career with the conference on Jan. 1, 2020. After nearly 30 years with 10 members, the conference consolidated to nine schools when the University of Chicago formally withdrew its membership in 1946. Michigan State was added to the Big Ten three years later, bringing the number of affiliated conference schools to 10 once again. In 1955, the Big Ten formulated a revenue-sharing model designed to pool all football television rights of its members and share those proceeds equally. The conference and its members continue to utilize a revenue-sharing model, dividing media rights, bowl payouts and other profits among all institutions. While academics have always played an integral role, presidents of the Big Ten member institutions formalized the primacy of academics with the establishment of the Big Ten Academic Alliance (formerly the Committee on Institutional Cooperation) in 1958. The Big Ten Academic Alliance is an academic consortium of all Big Ten universities. Annually, the schools currently constituting the Big Ten Academic Alliance produced over $10 billion in funded research, $5 billion more than any other conference. In one of Duke’s first actions as commissioner, he oversaw the adoption of the Big Ten Advisory Commission in 1972, designed to study conference programs and make suggestions which would further Big Ten objectives. The Advisory Commission enlists former students that competed in Big Ten athletics to serve as liaisons to the NCAA’s Diversity and Inclusion Department, the Big Ten Student-Athlete Advisory Commission and other organizations. In 1981, the conference presidents and chancellors endorsed a proposal that enabled universities to affiliate their women’s intercollegiate programs with the conference, and the first conference championships for women were staged that fall. The Big Ten was the first conference to voluntarily adopt male and female participation goals after launching its Gender Equity Action Plan in 1992. In December of 1989, the conference agreed in principle to invite Penn State for membership. On June 4, 1990, the Council of Presidents officially voted to integrate Penn State into the conference, giving the Big Ten 11 members.

In 2004, the Big Ten implemented a pilot program of instant replay for college football. Following the season, the conference forwarded replay proposals to the NCAA regarding the future use of instant replay, where it approved country-wide testing in 2005. In 2006, the NCAA approved the use of instant replay for all conferences. In 2006, Delany announced the creation of the first conference-owned television network, a 20-year agreement with FOX Networks to create what would become the Big Ten Network (BTN). Launched on Aug. 30, 2007, BTN now produces more than 1,800 events across all platforms each year. BTN is in almost 60 million homes in the United States and Canada via the nation’s major video providers and more than 300 additional video providers across the country. BTN is also available through the majority of OTT providers, and via the Fox Sports App, which delivers live and on-demand programming to computers, smartphones and tablets. BTN Plus streams hundreds of additional events each season. On June 11, 2010, the Big Ten Council of Presidents/Chancellors (COP/C) approved a formal membership application by Nebraska, expanding the conference to 12 institutions. Nebraska joined the Big Ten on July 1, 2011. The conference expanded its footprint further in 2012 when the COP/C approved formal membership applications from Maryland (Nov. 19) and Rutgers (Nov. 20). Maryland and Rutgers became official Big Ten members on July 1, 2014, giving the conference almost 9,500 students participating in intercollegiate athletics and more than 11,000 participation opportunities on 350 teams. On June 3, 2013, the Big Ten announced that Johns Hopkins had been accepted as the conference’s first sport affiliate member. Johns Hopkins’ addition in men’s lacrosse gave the Big Ten six institutions sponsoring the sport, allowing the debut of men’s lacrosse as an official conference sport and building on the Big Ten’s tradition of broadbased sports competition. On June 17, 2015, the conference announced that Johns Hopkins was accepted as a sport affiliate member for women’s lacrosse beginning with the 2016-17 academic year. On March 23, 2016, the conference announced that Notre Dame would join the Big Ten for men’s ice hockey beginning in 2017-18. Since opening in the fall of 2013, the Big Ten conference center hosts more than 300 meetings annually for member institutions, Big Ten Academic Alliance (formerly CIC) related committees and coaches’ groups. The headquarters also features an interactive digital museum - the Big Ten Experience – which brings the conference’s storied academic and athletic history to life. For more information on the Big Ten Experience, go to bigten.org. In June 2014, the Big Ten opened a second office in New York City, featuring both office and meeting space in Midtown Manhattan. Big Ten staff members are based in the New York City office to provide expanded coverage and service, while other conference and institutional administrators utilize the space as necessary when conducting business on the East Coast. The Big Ten and its member institutions also have access to satellite office space in Washington, D.C. The Big Ten staff works to meet the educational needs of students competing in intercollegiate athletics to allow them to excel in all areas of their lives. The conference office manages 28 different championships and tournaments, offers legislative and compliance services, oversees the production and distribution of more than 2,000 events annually, provides staff services to coaching and administrative personnel, and services media and fans interest for information on the Big Ten.

THE UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA

The University of Nebraska was chartered by the Nebraska Legislature in 1869 as the state’s public university and landgrant institution. Founded in Lincoln, the University of Nebraska was expanded in 1968 into a state educational system now comprising four campuses under the guidance of a Board of Regents and a central administration. Nebraska, which joined the Big Ten Conference in 2011, is a member of the Big Ten Academic Alliance, a consortium of Big Ten universities and the University of Chicago, which has generated unique opportunities for students and faculty by sharing expertise, leveraging resources and collaborating on programs.

BIG TEN ACADEMIC ALLIANCE

As a member of the Big Ten, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) is a member of the Big Ten Academic Alliance (BTAA), formerly the Committee on Institutional Cooperation, which is the academic consortium of the universities in the Big Ten Conference. The consortium was renamed on June 29, 2016. The BTAA includes all 14 Big Ten Institutions and the University of Chicago. The Big Ten Academic Alliances and the institutions together have annual research expenditures topping $10.2 billion — more than the Ivy League and the University of California System combined — and they educate a total of nearly 600,000 students with approximately 50,000 full-time faculty members.

PERSONAL

Washington State, B.A. (History, 1973) Family: Kendra (wife); Bo, Benjamin (sons); Christa, Brittany and Kati (daughters) Honor the past. Live the present. Create the future. Nine simple words that carry impressive significance and undeniable responsibility. Words that Nebraska’s new athletic director uses to lead his programs and set the tone for building champions in competition and in life. William H. (Bill) Moos was named Nebraska’s Athletic Director on Oct. 15, 2017, and fully assumed those responsibilities on Oct. 23. Moos, who became the 15th athletic director in the history of the storied Cornhusker program, brought nearly 25 years of experience as an athletic director at three Division I schools (Washington State, Oregon, Montana) with him to Nebraska. More importantly, he brings an impressive track record of success in building outstanding programs, developing long-term relationships, and for doing what is best for his schools, its fans and most importantly, its student-athletes. “When you name the top three, four, five athletic programs in the great positions as an athletic director, Nebraska is in that same breath,” Moos said at his introductory press conference at Memorial Stadium. “I want you to know that my motto has always been, in the 25 years I have been a Division I athletic director and it will be here too is very simple - honor the past, live the present, create the future.” In his first six months at Nebraska, Moos made three coaching hires. He drew universal praise for hiring Scott Frost, the 2017 consensus national coach of the year, as Nebraska’s head football coach in December. Following the spring semester, Moos also hired Mark Hankins to coach the men’s golf team and Sean Maymi to lead the men’s tennis program.

Nebraska made national headlines with the hiring of Fred Hoiberg as its new men’s basketball coach in 2019. Moos made another impact move with the hiring of former Husker Will Bolt to lead the baseball program, after Major League All-Star, Gold Glove award winner and World Series champion Darin Erstad stepped down from his head coaching position after leading the Huskers to the 2019 NCAA Tournament. Moos hired Lisa Johnson to lead the women’s golf program after the retirement of long-time coach Robin Krapfl. He also hired long-time Husker assistant Paul Klempa to guide the nationally dominant bowling program after the retirement of the legendary Bill Straub, who led the program to five NCAA titles since 2004. Former Husker national champions Heather Brink (women’s gymnastics) and Rachel Martin (rifle) were also hired by Moos to lead those national championship-contending programs. In competition, the Nebraska volleyball team claimed the 2017 NCAA title just months after Moos was hired, before adding an NCAA runner-up finish in 2018. Both the men’s and women’s gymnastics teams finished in the top six at the 2018 NCAA Championships, before the men added a third-place team finish in 2019 - its best team showing since 1999. The bowling team has added top-three national finishes each of the last two years, and the wrestling team has produced top-10 NCAA finishes both seasons. The women’s basketball team made the NCAA Tournament in 2018, while the baseball team advanced to NCAA Tournament play in 2019. Nebraska also has continued its excellence in the classroom, producing nine CoSIDA Academic All-Americans over the last two years, bringing NU’s nation-leading total to 338 all-time CoSIDA Academic All-Americans across all sports. Moos came to Lincoln after spending seven-plus years at Washington State (2010-17). He previously served 12 highly successful seasons as the athletic director at Oregon (1995-2007). During his time at his alma mater, Moos wasted little time in making his impact felt in Cougar Athletics, spearheading a department-wide rebranding effort with Nike while securing a 10-year, $35 million marketing rights agreement with IMG College. In addition, the 2004 WSU Alumni Achievement Award winner gained Regents approval for a $130 million addition and remodel of Martin Stadium, featuring a remodeled press box with luxury seating, including suites, loge boxes and club room. Also included in the project was a state-of-the-art video board and an 80,000-square-foot football operations building that served as the stadium’s showpiece and opened in May 2014. As the dean of Pac-12 athletic directors, Moos was at the forefront of the conference’s procurement of a 12-year, $3 billion television contract with FOX and ESPN, a landmark agreement in college athletics. Under Moos’ direction, the Cougar Athletic Fund’s Annual Giving program saw an 81 percent increase in gifts while CAF donor members rose from nearly 4,000 to more than 7,500. Additional facility enhancements under Moos included a center-hung video board in Beasley Coliseum that was installed prior to the 2011-12 season, giving Cougar basketball one of the premier fan experiences in the conference. An indoor golf hitting facility was also completed in early 2013, and Lower Soccer Field underwent a major renovation making the venue TV-ready while also providing one of the best playing surfaces on the West Coast, along with the addition of lights and a new scoreboard. Other enhancements were made to the Moobery track facility, Bailey-Brayton Field, the basketball practice gym, Gibb Pool and the Simmelink Indoor tennis courts. In Moos’ seven years at WSU, Cougar student-athletes and coaches accounted for 805 academic all-conference selections, 130 all-conference accolades, 45 All-America honors and three Pac-12 Coach-of-the-Year honors. Moos served as Oregon’s director of athletics from July of 1995 to 2007. While at Oregon he oversaw a 17-sport athletic department that grew to national prominence during his tenure.Oregon’s annual athletic department budget grew

from $18.5 million in his first year to more than $40 million by 2007, becoming 100 percent self-sufficient during that time. Under his direction the Duck Athletic Fund donor base increased from 4,930 to 12,290, resulting in an annual gifts increase from $4.1 million to $15.3 million. Moos initiated more than $160 million in facility improvements while at Oregon. Included in that was the $90 million Autzen Stadium renovation in 2002, which added 12,000 new seats, 32 new suites, a new Club at Autzen and a new press box to the stadium. In his 12 years, the Ducks ranked first in Pac-10 football attendance 11 times, reaching 100 percent capacity in each of those seasons. During Moos’ tenure, Oregon athletics captured 13 Pac10 championships across six different sports. He increased opportunities for women by adding two intercollegiate programs, soccer and lacrosse, and negotiated an allinclusive shoe and apparel contract with Nike, one of only 14 in the country at the time. From an academic standpoint during Moos’ tenure, Oregon student-athletes collected 722 academic all-conference selections, 34 Academic All-America selections, nine NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship recipients and one NCAA Top Ten Award. During his first stint as a collegiate athletic director at Montana (1990-95), Moos created an academic support program and hired its first athletic academic coordinator, developed a facility enhancement plan that created more than $4 million in improvements, and lifted the school’s fund-raising efforts to show a 300 percent increase in private and corporate gifts. Academically, Montana student-athletes were equally successful as the athletic department achieved a graduation rate 20 percent higher than the general university enrollment. Under Moos’ watch Montana garnered 269 academic allconference selections, five Academic All-Americans and two NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship recipients. Moos began his athletic career as an athletic administrator in 1982 as assistant athletic director at Washington State. He also served as the school’s associate athletic director (1988-90). At Washington State, he was director of development for more than five years and associate director for nearly two years, supervising all external operations. Prior to that, he managed and owned private businesses in Washington and Oregon for eight years. He was a student assistant football coach at Washington State for the 1973 season, then spent part of 1974 in Washington, D.C., serving as a government intern. Raised on a wheat and cattle ranch in eastern Washington, Moos attended high school in Olympia when his father served in the governor’s cabinet. Moos earned his bachelor’s degree in history from WSU and was a three-year letterman in football before concluding his collegiate career by representing Washington State in the 1972 East-West Shrine All-Star Game in San Francisco. He served as co-captain on the Cougars’ 1972 squad and garnered first-team All-Pac-8 Conference honors. Moos and his wife Kendra have three daughters: Christa, Brittany and Kaiti; and two sons, Bo and Benjamin.

Williams, who proved herself as a winner and a program builder in her first nine seasons as a collegiate head coach, returned to her alma mater to lead a new stage in the Husker program. In her second season with the Big Red, Williams proved again she could get a program moving forward in a hurry. Williams captured 2018 Big Ten Coach-of-the-Year honors after leading the nation's biggest turnaround. The Huskers earned a bid into the 2018 NCAA Tournament and finished with a 21-11 record - a nation-leading 14-game turnaround in the win column over 2016-17.

Defensively, Nebraska led the Big Ten with a school-record field goal percentage defense (.371) while also leading the conference in three-point field goal percentage defense (.299). The Huskers improved 12.7 points per game defensively over the 2016-17 campaign and were six points per game better on the offensive end. They shattered the school record with 250 three-pointers on the season. Individually, point guard Hannah Whitish earned second-team All-Big Ten honors, while 6-5 center Kate Cain captured spots on both the Big Ten AllFreshman and Big Ten All-Defensive teams. Cain shattered the Nebraska school record with 100 blocked shots on the season, including the school's first points-rebounds-blocks triple-double with 22 points, 14 boards and 11 blocks in a win over Florida Atlantic. With Cain leading the way, the Huskers smashed the school record with 163 blocks. Cain was joined in Nebraska's freshman class by Taylor Kissinger. The 2017 All-Nebraska player produced one of the top-five three-point shooting seasons by a freshman in Husker history. She and Cain combined to average nearly 20 points and more than 10 rebounds, after giving Williams her first top-25 recruiting class at Nebraska. Williams added a second straight top-25 recruiting class with 2018-19 freshmen Leigha Brown, Sam Haiby, Kayla Mershon and Ashtyn Veerbeek. Those four combined for more points (893) than any other Husker freshman class since 1981-82. Nebraska's young players struggled to find the win column in 2018-19, finishing with a 14-16 overall record against one of the best overall schedules in school history. However, the Big Red managed a 9-9 Big Ten mark to tie for sixth in a league that sent six teams to the NCAA Tournament. The 2018-19 Huskers played a school-record 14 games decided by six points or less. Unfortunately, Nebraska went just 4-10 in those games. In 2019-20, Nebraska returns each of its top seven scorers from a year ago. In her first season of a building process at Nebraska in 2016-17, the Huskers struggled to a 7-22 overall record that included a 3-13 Big Ten mark. While the Huskers' record was not glossy, the Big Red faced one of the nation's top-30 schedules and finished with three wins over top-65 RPI teams. Nebraska's regular season ended with a 7674 overtime win over NCAA Tournament-bound Michigan State at Pinnacle Bank Arena on Feb. 26. That win followed a 67-64 home win over an Indiana squad that finished in the top four in the final 14-team Big Ten standings. The Huskers added a win over Mountain West Conference regular-season champion Colorado State in the 2016 Preseason WNIT. Conf. Pct.

2019-20 NEBRASKA WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

NICEA ELIELY

6-1 Senior Guard Colorado Springs, Colorado (Rampart)

HONORS & AWARDS • Nebraska Defensive MVP (2017, 2019) • Nebraska Scholar-Athlete Honor Roll (Fall 2017) • Tom Osborne Citizenship Team (2017, 2018, 2019) • No. 143 Player in the Nation (Blue Star, 2015) • No. 25 Guard in the Nation (ESPN, 2015) • Colorado Class 5A (Second Team, 2016)

OUTLOOK (2019-20)

Nicea Eliely (pronounced ny-SEE-ah EE-lylee) has proven herself as one of the Big Ten's best defenders and a reliable starter for the Huskers throughout her career. The 6-1 senior from Colorado Springs, ranked among the top five players in the Big Ten in steals (1.8 spg), and her solid all-around game could place her in elite company in Husker history by the end of the season. Eliely is within striking distance of 1,000 points, 500 rebounds and 200 career steals. If she reaches those milestones, she would become just the fifth Husker in history to achieve them, joining Anna DeForge, Maurtice Ivy, Deb Powell and Brooke Schwartz. Only nine players in Husker history have reached 200 career steals, and Eliely needs 64 to achieve that standard by season's end. "Nicea is poised to have a great senior season," Nebraska Coach Amy Williams said. "She is probably our most complete player, and we will look for her to make big contributions on both sides of the ball."

JUNIOR (2018-19)

Eliely was one of Nebraska’s top perimeter defenders as a junior, ranking among the top five players in the Big Ten with 1.8 steals per game. Eliely, who joined Kate Cain as the only Huskers to start all 30 games in 2018-19, finished with 54 steals, the highest total by a Husker since All-American Lindsey Moore nabbed 60 steals as a senior in 2012-13.

Eliely averaged 7.9 points while shooting career bests of 47.8 percent from the field and 80.7 percent from the free throw line. She added 3.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game. She scored in double figures nine times, including a season-high 18 points at No. 7 Maryland (Feb. 14). She followed with 10 points and four steals in a win over No. 24 Michigan State (Feb. 17). Eliely opened Big Ten play with 14 points in back-to-back wins over Michigan (Dec. 28) and at Ohio State (Dec. 31). She fueled fourthquarter comebacks in both games combining for 24 points in the final periods. She added five of her career-high six steals in the fourth quarter in NU’s comeback win over No. 23 Minnesota (Jan. 20), helping the Huskers hold the Gophers without a field goal for the final six minutes. Eliely also had 14 points in a win over Denver (Dec. 15). She had 12 points, five rebounds and five steals at Wisconsin (Jan. 27). She added 12 points at Purdue (Jan. 31). Eliely scored 10 against Drake (Nov. 7) and at No. 24 Miami (Nov. 23). She had a seasonhigh eight rebounds to go along with nine points at Creighton (Dec. 2).

Overall, she hit 46.9 percent (90-192) of her shots from the floor, including 38 percent (19-50) of her threes. Eliely was a major contributor in powering Nebraska to a spot in the Big Ten Tournament semifinals by scoring 12 points to go along with six rebounds, an assist, a block and two steals in a quarterfinal victory over Michigan in Indianapolis (March 2). It was her 12th doublefigure scoring effort of the season. Eliely was a key part of Nebraska's 14game improvement in the win column from 2016-17, while helping the Huskers to eight more conference wins than 2016-17. She produced a season-high 17 points to go along with three rebounds and two steals in a road win at Michigan State (Feb. 14).

Bourne's commitments with the Australian National program kept her from competing with the Huskers during their summer tour in Europe, but she did travel with the team in Italy and Spain. During the early part of fall practice, Bourne has made a strong impression on her coaches and teammates. "The first few workouts with Issie have reiterated why we are so excited to have her in a Husker uniform," Nebraska Coach Amy Williams said. "She spent the summer training and competing with some of the best in the world with Team Australia, and those experiences will help with her transition. She knows how to work and how to win, and we know that will help our team."

BEFORE NEBRASKA

One of the most talented young players in Australia, Bourne joined the Huskers in August of 2019 after helping the Gems to a silver medal at 2019 FIBA Under-19 World Cup in Bangkok, Thailand, July 20-28. The Australian U19 National Team entered the tournament ranked No. 7 in the world, but came up just short of the gold medal, falling 74-70 in overtime to the United States. Bourne averaged 8.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 23.1 minutes per game for the Gems. INTRODUCTION . THIS IS NEBRASKA . ADMINISTRATION . COACHES . MEET THE HUSKERS . OPPONENTS . REVIEW .

NEBRASKA'S BIG TEN HISTORY

Although Nebraska competed for the first time as a member of the Big Ten Conference in 2011-12, the Huskers have a relatively substantial history playing against Big Ten opponents. Nebraska's first-ever meeting with a Big Ten school came with a thrilling 68-67 overtime victory over Minnesota on Dec. 30, 1977. Two weeks later, the Huskers improved to 2-0 against the Big Ten with a 71-63 victory over Iowa at the Jennies Classic in Warrensburg, Mo., on Jan. 13, 1978. The following season, Nebraska improved to 3-0 against the Big Ten with a narrow 59-57 victory over Minnesota at the Devaney Center on Nov. 28, 1978. Overall, the Huskers carry a 109-94 all-time record against Big Ten opposition after their first eight seasons of Big Ten Conference competition. Nebraska is 85-64 against Big Ten foes in its first eight seasons in the conference, including 76-57 in Big Ten regular-season play. The Huskers captured the 2014 Big Ten Tournament title by going 3-0 in Indianapolis. The Huskers are 9-7 all-time in the Big Ten Tournament and 7-5 at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The Huskers are 43-41 on the road in Big Ten play in eight Big Ten seasons.

2019-20 NEBRASKA WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

YOUNG HUSKERS FEEL GROWING PAINS IN 2018-19;

Nebraska's Maddie Simon and her extended family joined the Huskers on the court for a memorable Senior Night ceremony following the Huskers' game with Iowa on Feb. 25. Simon played 108 games in her Nebraska career, producing 709 points, 336 rebounds and 133 assists. The Nebraska women's basketball team played one of its youngest rosters in recent memory against one of the toughest schedules in school history during the 2018-19 season. The Huskers featured just one healthy senior during the 2018-19 campaign, as Lincoln Pius X graduate Maddie Simon completed her four-year Nebraska career. Nebraska did have a solid nucleus of juniors in Hannah Whitish, Nicea Eliely and Grace Mitchell, to lead a roster that was completed by sophomores Kate Cain and Taylor Kissinger and four freshmen - Leigha Brown, Sam Haiby, Kayla Mershon and Ashtyn Veerbeek. The Huskers, who lost six players off the 201718 squad that earned a trip to the 2018 NCAA Tournament, laid the foundation for future success by relying heavily on its talented 2018-19 freshmen. Nebraska's freshmen quartet scored more points (893) than any Husker freshman class since 1981-82 - that dates back to the first year of the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament in 1982. Haiby (10.0 ppg), Brown (9.6 ppg), Veerbeek (6.9 ppg) and Mershon (3.2 ppg) each played in all 30 games for the Huskers as true freshmen. Mershon, a 6-3 forward from Chanhassen, Minn., led the group with 14 starts, while Brown added six starts late in the season. Although the freshmen provided big scoring numbers, they did not play huge minutes, as Coach Amy Williams and her staff took the time to make sure they were properly laying the foundation for future success. Nebraska played an extraordinarily balanced rotation of 10 players throughout the season. Whitish, a two-time All-Big Ten guard from Barneveld, Wis., was the only Husker to play more than 800 minutes during the season. The threeyear starter averaged a team-best 10.1 points in 29.5 minutes per game. She added a team-best 4.3 assists per game while developing into on of Nebraska's most reliable defenders. Eliely, another three-year starter for the Huskers at guard, was the only other Nebraska player to

compete for more than 700 minutes in 2018-19. The 6-1 wing from Colorado Springs enjoyed an efficient season, averging 7.9 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists and a team-best 1.8 steals per game. One of the Big Ten's best all-around defenders, Eliely ranked fifth in the league in steals despite playing just over 25 minutes per game. She also hit 47.8 percent of her field goals and 80.7 percent of her free throws. Juniors Cain and Kissinger played the next highest minute totals, with Cain averaging 7.5 points and team bests of 5.9 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per game in just under 23 minutes per contest. Cain, a 6-5 center from Middletown, N.Y., joined Eliely in the starting lineup for all 30 games. Kissinger, a 6-1 guard/forward from Minden, Neb., added 8.9 points and 3.2 rebounds in just over 23 minutes per contest. She also led the Big Ten and ranked fourth in the nation with her .456 three-point percentage. She also knocked down a team-best 88.2 percent of her free throws. Haiby was the only other Husker to average more than 20 minutes per game, although she did not start a single game in 2018-19. The 5-9 freshman guard from Moorhead, Minn., ranked second on the team in scoring with 10.0 points per game, while also ranking second with 2.6 assists per game. Haiby also finished third among the Huskers with 25 steals and averaged 3.0 rebounds per game in 21 minutes per contest. Brown finished third on the team in scoring with 9.6 points per contest, including 10.2 points in Big Ten action. Brown, a 6-1 guard/forward from Auburn, Ind., put up her production in under 19 minutes per game. Veerbeek, a 6-2 forward from Sioux Center, Iowa, contributed 6.9 points and ranked second on the team with 5.5 rebounds despite playing less than 17 minutes per contest. Mershon earned the most starts by a freshman with 14, but played just over 17 minutes per contest. She supplied solid defense and rebounding and gave Nebraska its top individual assist-to-turnover ratio on the season (27-12).

Nebraska's balanced playing rotation gave the young Husker roster maximum opportunities for growth. For example, Nebraska's fresh legs throughout the season helped the Huskers outscore their opponents by an average of 2.4 points per game in the fourth quarter during the season. The Huskers also got off to strong starts in games, outscoring the opposition by an average of 1.8 points per game in the first quarter. Nebraska's young players did excellent jobs of carrying out first-quarter game plans, and fighting through deficits to stay in a record-setting number of close games in 2018-19. In fact, Nebraska finished its 30-game season with 14 games decided by six points or less. No other Husker team in history had ever played more than 11 games decided by two possessions. Unfortunately for the 2018-19 Huskers, they finished just 4-10 in those close games. From Jan. 3 (Iowa) to Feb. 10 (Purdue), Nebraska played eight games decided by six or fewer points in an 11-game span. Six of Nebraska's seven losses during the stretch were by six points or less, while two of their four wins were by six points. Despite the amazing number of close losses, the Huskers managed to go 9-9 and tie for sixth in a Big Ten Conference that sent six teams to the 2019 NCAA Tournament and three more to the Postseason WNIT, including runner-up Northwestern. Overall, Nebraska finished with a 14-16 overall record but still closed the year among the top 100 teams in the official NCAA RPI because of its impressive strength of schedule. Nebraska played 11 of its 30 games against Associated Press Top 25 teams, including two games against Big Ten regular-season champion Maryland, which climbed as high as No. 4 in the national rankings during the year. The Huskers also played two games against Iowa, which climbed as high as No. 10 in the rankings during the regular season before winning the Big Ten Tournament and advancing to the NCAA Elite Eight. The Huskers also battled Louisville on the road early in the regular season. The Cardinals earned

ESTABLISH FOUNDATION FOR FUTURE SUCCESS one of four No. 1 seeds in the NCAA Tournament, climbed as high as No. 2 in the polls and finished No. 3 in the RPI. "It was a challenging, rewarding and frustrating season kind of all rolled into one," Nebraska Coach Amy Williams said. "Our players fought hard and played really hard all season. They never gave up. We put ourselves in position to win a lot of games, and just didn't win enough of them. Part of that was our youth, I suppose. Part of it was our schedule. I think mostly, we lacked a consistent ability to maintain our focus and intensity for 40 minutes on a nightly basis. "I think as this team grows together during another offseason, developing a sense of urgency and an ability to maintain it throughout practices and games will be key to our success." While Nebraska's season was filled with ups and downs, the positive mindset of the players and coaching staff was never in doubt, and the Huskers were able to provide many memorable moments throughout the season. In the second game of the season, Kissinger set a school record by going a perfect 6-for-6 from threepoint range in an 87-64 victory over USC Upstate at Pinnacle Bank Arena on Nov. 11. Kissinger, who finished with a team-high 22 points against the Spartans, knocked down three quick threes in the first quarter to shoot the Big Red to a 14-point lead. She added a fourth three in the second quarter and two more threes in the third quarter. Haiby provided Nebraska's next memorable moment by scoring 20 points after halftime to lead NU back from a 13-point deficit late in the third quarter at Washington State. The Cougars eventually prevailed 87-84 in double overtime. Veerbeek earned a spot on the Miami Thanksgiving Classic All-Tournament team with 13 points and nine rebounds in a 77-39 win over Radford in Coral Gables, Fla. The Huskers dominated the Highlanders from start to finish. Radford finished 26-7 record and went to the NCAA Tournament. Kissinger put up her second career doubledouble with 11 points and a career-high 11 rebounds as Nebraska completed a series sweep of Kansas with a 58-52 win at Pinnacle Bank Arena on Dec. 5. Nebraska pulled down 64 rebounds against KU for a plus-21 team rebound margin. Three days later, Cain and Veerbeek both added double-doubles in a 96-63 win over San Jose State in Lincoln. Cain scored 16 points on 8-of-9 shooting against the Spartans while grabbing 17 rebounds. Veerbeek added 14 points and grabbed 14 boards, as the Huskers produced a plus-28 rebound margin (56-28) against San Jose State. The next time out, the Huskers put five players in double figures to overcome one of the best individual performances by an opponent in the history of Pinnacle Bank Arena. Nebraska ran to a 96-71 win over Denver with 18 points from Kissinger, 17 from Brown and 14 each from Veerbeek, Cain and Eliely. Those performances allowed Nebraska to outlast a 33-point effort from Samantha Romanowski, who went a perfect 8-for-8 from three-point range in the game. At the time, Denver's Lauren Loven was leading the nation in three-point shooting, and the Huskers held her to two points and no field goals. In the non-conference finale at Arkansas, Nebraska rallied from a 77-68 deficit with 4:27 left to take an 80-79 lead with 1:04 remaining, before the Razorbacks prevailed, 84-80. The game included a 40-foot runner at the buzzer from Brown that sent the Huskers to halftime with a 36-31 lead. Haiby led NU with 16 points, including nine in the second half. The Huskers opened Big Ten play against Michigan. The Wolverines built a 43-37 lead at the end of three quarters by winning each of the first

three periods, before Eliely and the Huskers erupted in the fourth. The Big Red outscored Michigan 33-13 down the stretch to run away with a 70-56 win. Eliely scored all of her game-high 14 points in the fourth quarter, going 3-for-3 to open the period before hitting 7-of-8 at the free throw line to put Michigan away. Nebraska improved to 2-0 in the Big Ten with a 78-69 win at Ohio State on New Year's Eve. Eliely rallied the Huskers again by scoring 10 huge points in the fourth quarter. Nebraska trailed 53-51 after three quarters despite 19 points from Brown through the first three periods. Eliely hit two big threes and completed a traditional three-point play in the fourth quarter to help the Huskers outscore the Buckeyes 27-16 down the stretch. Brown led the Huskers again with 20 points at No. 9 Iowa on Jan. 3 to earn Big Ten Freshman-ofthe-Week honors. Nebraska again showed its fight against the Hawkeyes. Trailing 69-57 with less than four minutes left, the Huskers stormed back to cut the margin to 73-71 in the final minute. However National Player-of-the-Year Megan Gustafson's 28 points and 17 rebounds, and 14 points and a pair of huge offensive rebounds in the final 30 seconds from Hannah Stewart were enough to give Iowa the win and hand Nebraska its first Big Ten loss. Losses to No. 9 Maryland and Rutgers, which moved to 5-0 in the Big Ten and No. 20 in the AP Poll after beating the Huskers, sent Nebraska to Illinois hungry for a win. Nebraska came away from Champaign happy with a 77-67 win that included a 19-point, eightrebound effort from Veerbeek. Her clutch threepointer with 1:39 left allowed Nebraska to hold off a late Illini rally, after Nebraska had built a 57-44 lead at the end of three quarters.

Sam Haiby played key roles in Nebraska's win over top-25 teams Michigan State and Minnesota at Pinnacle Bank Arena as a freshman for the Huskers in 2018-19.

SIX NCAA TOURNAMENT APPEARANCES SINCE 2010

The Huskers moved to 4-3 in the Big Ten with a 63-57 win over No. 23 Minnesota at Pinnacle Bank Arena on Jan. 20. Whitish, Kissinger and Haiby combined for all 25 of Nebraska's points in the fourth quarter, as the Huskers dominated the more experienced Gophers 25-11 down the stretch. While Whitish, Kissingher and Haiby took care of the offense, Eliely grabbed five fourth-quarter steals among her career-high six in the game. The Huskers followed with back-to-back heartbreakers, starting with a 58-54 loss to Northwestern. Nebraska rallied from a 10-point third-quarter deficit to take a 54-53 lead with 37 seconds left, but the Wildcats survived for the win. Three days later at Wisconsin, Eliely gave Nebraska a 69-67 lead with 0.7 seconds left, but somehow Kelly Karliss answered with a catch, turn and shoot from the corner in front of Wisconsin's bench as time expired to give the Badgers the win. The young Huskers responded with a complete performance in an 84-64 pounding of Purdue in West Lafayette, Ind. Whitish exploded for a seasonhigh 28 points, including a career-high six threes, to go along with a career-high 12 assists for her first career double-double. Veerbeek added 14 points and nine boards, while Haiby (13) and Eliely (12) also pitched in double figures. Haiby added 17 points in a four-point loss to Indiana in Lincoln to claim Big Ten Freshman-of-theWeek honors (Feb. 4). However, the Huskers also took a six-point loss at Michigan, before returning to Pinnacle Bank Arena desperate for a win against Purdue. The Boilermakers were also desperate and took a 48-43 lead into the fourth quarter. Brown won the day for the Big Red, erupting for 22 of her career-high 30 points in the fourth to carry Nebraska to a 67-61 win. Brown's performance earned her a spot on the Big Ten Weekly Honor Roll on Feb. 11. After a road loss at No. 7 Maryland, the Huskers came back to Lincoln to register an impressive 82-71 win over No. 24 Michigan State on Feb. 17. Whitish led five Huskers in double figures with 16 points. Nebraska built some momentum with a 71-64 win at Northwestern, Feb. 21, as Whitish poured in 19 points, and senior Maddie Simon contributed 15 points on a 6-for-6 shooting night from the field. The Huskers fought hard against No. 12 Iowa, but the Hawkeyes prevailed down the stretch with 29 points and 20 rebounds from Gustafson to spoil Simon's Senior Night at Pinnacle Bank Arena. Nebraska closed the regular season with a 79-74 win at Penn State. Haiby scored 12 of her team-high 16 points in the fourth quarter, including 10-for-10 free throw shooting to seal the win. Kissinger added 14 points on 4-of-5 three-point shooting. NU's season came to an end with a 75-71 loss to Purdue at the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis. The Huskers trailed by 14 points in the second half, but cut the lead to one point with under two minutes left. Kissinger led the Huskers with 15 points on 5-of10 three-point shooting. Whitish claimed the only postseason honors for the Huskers by being named honorable-mention All-Big Ten. Off the court, Simon earned Nebraska's Big Ten Sportsmanship Award for her outstanding leadership and unselfishness throughout her career and her senior season. Simon was one of four Huskers, joining Cain, Kissinger and Mitchell to earn academic All-Big Ten honors for the Big Red. Cain and Mitchell also claimed Big Ten Distinguished Scholar accolades for their performance in the classroom. Mitchell added a Sam Foltz Hero 27 Leadership Award for her commitment to Nebraska's Life Skills program. She was joined by Cain, Haiby, Kristian Hudson, Kissinger, Mershon, Simon and Veerbeek on the Tom Osborne Citizenship Team.

Game Highlights: In a back-and-forth battle between 2018 NCAA Tournament teams, Drake made the plays in the closing minutes to escape from Lincoln with an 83-77 win over Nebraska. In a game that featured big runs by both teams, the Huskers used a 14-0 run to open the game to build a 16-point first-quarter lead. The two-time defending Missouri Valley Conference champion Bulldogs answered with a 16-0 second-quarter run to build a 45-36 halftime lead. Drake extended its lead to 49-36 to open the second half before Nebraska answered. The Big Red cut the lead to 60-57 at the end of three quarters and regained a 67-65 lead with five minutes left in the game, before Drake prevailed. Freshman guard Sam Haiby led the Huskers with 13 points off the bench in her debut, while Nicea Eliely and Hannah Whitish each contributed 10 points. Reigning Missouri Valley Conference Player-of-the-Year Becca Hittner led all scorers with 19 points, while Sammie Bachrodt added 15 points. Maddy Dean and Sara Rhine pitched in double-doubles for Drake, which outrebounded the Huskers, 44-40.

Game Highlights: Taylor Kissinger set a school record by going a perfect 6-for-6 from three-point range on her way to a team-high 22 points in an 87-64 win over USC Upstate at Pinnacle Bank Arena. In a rare Sunday morning tip-off, Kissinger came out on fire, draining three threes in the first quarter to shoot the Huskers to a 14-point lead at the end of the first period. She added her fourth three in the second quarter, before burying two more in the third quarter to become just the second Husker in history to shoot 100 percent from beyond the arc on at least five attempts. The previous Nebraska mark came on Jessica Periago’s 5-for-5 performance at Indiana in December of 2010. Kissinger, who went 8-for-9 overall from the field, was joined by Kate Cain in double figures. Cain finished with 16 points on 8-of11 shooting, including a putback on Kissinger’s only miss of the day. Maddie Simon added 10 points, while Nicea Eliely played an outstanding all-around game with eight points and team highs of six rebounds and six assists.

Game Highlights: Sam Haiby scored all 20 of her points after halftime to help Nebraska rally from a 13-point third-quarter deficit, but it was not enough to prevent Washington State from claiming an 87-84 double-overtime win at Beasley Coliseum. Nebraska jumped to a 12-6 lead before the Cougars rallied to take a 19-18 lead at the end of the first quarter. WSU built the lead to 39-29 at the half, then took their biggest lead at 60-47 late in the third. Haiby scored five points during a 10-0 Husker run midway through the fourth quarter. Haiby’s two free throws tied the score at 68. Taylor Kissinger added two more free throws with 56 seconds left in regulation to send the game to overtime tied at 70, after the Huskers held WSU without a field goal for the final 5:41 in the period. Haiby scored six quick points in the first overtime to give Nebraska a 78-74 lead, but WSU tied the score at 78 on a layup by Maria Kostourkova with two seconds left to send it to another OT. Nebraska regained the lead early in the final period with back-to-back threes by Maddie Simon and Hannah Whitish, but Borislava Hristova made the shots down the stretch for the Cougars. Hristova finished with a game-high 31, while Chanelle Molina added 26 for the Cougars.

Game Highlights: Sam Haiby scored 15 of her team-high 17 points in the second half, but it was not enough to stop home-standing Creighton from working its way to a 74-65 win over the Huskers at D.J. Sokol Arena. Kate Cain added 12 points on 6-of-8 shooting, but Nebraska was an ice cold 2-for-22 from three-point range. Creighton wasn’t much better from outside, going just 5-for-21, but the extra trio of made threes was the difference. CU was sparked by Olivia Elger, who scored all 16 of her points in the second half including 3-of-5 threepointers. She added seven rebounds. Audrey Faber led Creighton with a double-double of 18 points and 10 rebounds, while Tatum Rembao pitched in 18 points and six assists. Rembao also hit a pair of threes for the Jays, who built a 60-47 lead with just under six minutes left in the game. However, the Huskers stormed back to cut the lead to 62-57 just over two minutes later and it remained a possession game down the stretch. Creighton went 21-for-24 from the free throw line for the game to seal the win.

Game Highlights: Nebraska rallied from a 77-68 deficit with 4:27 left to take an 80-79 lead with 1:04 remaining, but Arkansas made the plays in the final minute to earn an 84-80 win at Bud Walton Arena. The Huskers jumped out to a 15-2 lead and maintained a 36-31 halftime edge, thanks in part to Leigha Brown’s 40-foot runner at the buzzer. Brown, who finished with nine points, was one of four Husker freshmen who combined for 45 points off the bench. Sam Haiby, who led the Huskers with 16 points, had seven in the first half and made huge plays down the stretch to give the Huskers the 8079 lead after the first of two free throws with 1:04 remaining. However, a scoreboard malfunction after the first made free throw caused a more than threeminute delay before the second free throw. Haiby missed the second, and the Razorbacks scored the game’s final five points. Chelsea Dungee, who hit the go-ahead shot for Arkansas, scored 20 of her game-high 23 points in the second half. Kiara Williams added game-sealing free throws for the Razorbacks. She finished with 10 points.

Nebraska’s defense provided the difference by recording a season-high 11 steals and turning 17 Illini turnovers into 15 points. Illinois out-rebounded the Huskers 40-32, including 15 offensive rebounds compared to a season-low five for the Big Red. However, Illinois only outscored NU 13-9 in second-chance points.

She was fouled and made both free throws to put the Big Red back up four points. After a bucket from Kate Cain and a pair of baskets from Taylor Kissinger, including her fourth three of the game, Nebraska led 68-63 with just over three minutes left. Haiby sank eight more free throws in the final 2:27 to extend Nebraska’s lead back to 79-72 with 17 seconds left before the Huskers settled for the final margin. Kissinger finished with 14 points on 4-of-5 three-point shooting, while Leigha Brown, Kayla Mershon, Ashtyn Veerbeek and Cain all added eight points to secure a 9-9 Big Ten mark for the Big Red.

Nebraska drew its first sellout crowd for women's basketball with 13,595 fans at the Devaney Center on Feb. 27, 2010. The Huskers, who drew 10 straight crowds of more than 10,000 fans to close 2010, defeated Missouri 67-51.

HUSKERS CELEBRATED FINAL SEASON AT DEVANEY IN 2012-13 NEBRASKA FACED UTAH AT DEVANEY ON NOV. 23, 2014

For 37 seasons (1976-2013) the Nebraska women's basketball team called the Bob Devaney Sports Center home. In 2013-14, the Huskers made a successful move into Pinnacle Bank Arena, tying the school record with 16 home victories while ranking No. 8 nationally in total attendance (110,892). Nebraska made its regular-season debut at the 15,000-seat Pinnacle Bank Arena with a resounding 77-49 victory over Pac-12 power UCLA on Nov. 8, 2013. Little more than a year later, the Huskers returned to their old home court to face another Pac-12 foe, when Nebraska defeated Utah, 66-43, at the Devaney Center on Nov. 23, 2014. The game against the Utes was the first played by the Huskers on their old home court since the Devaney Center was completely renovated for volleyball prior to the 2013 season. In Nebraska's final season of women's basketball at the Devaney Center (2012-13), the building featured a seating capacity of 13,595. The nearly $20 million in renovations at the Devaney Center reduced capacity to 7,907 with standing room approaching nearly 8,500. The Husker volleyball program led the nation in home attendance in 2013 with 8,175 fans per match. The renovations to the Devaney Center continued with significant upgrades to the outside of the building in 2014. Inside, ceiling trusses have been added to provide an historic feel, while five luxurious suites and large new 10MM video screens have been installed to help create an electric atmosphere. Although the Huskers no longer compete at the Devaney Center as their permanent home, the team's impressive practice facility, the Hendricks Training Complex, is attached to the Devaney Center. Not only do the Huskers continue to utilize the Devaney Center for summer camps, the building also serves as a host site, along with Pinnacle Bank Arena, for the Nebraska Boys and Girls State Basketball Tournaments. Named after Nebraska Hall of Fame football coach and athletic director Bob Devaney (1962-93), the Devaney Center opened in the fall of 1976 and is located on NU's Innovation Campus (formerly the Nebraska State Fairgrounds). The building currently houses Nebraska's volleyball, track, swimming, wrestling and gymnastics teams. In 2009-10, Nebraska ranked seventh nationally with a school-record average home attendance of 7,390 fans per game. The Huskers also led the Big 12 in league games only by averaging 11,383 fans per contest, including seven consecutive crowds of more than 10,000 fans to close the season. NU sold out the Devaney Center for women's basketball with 13,595 on hand for a win over Missouri on Feb. 27, 2010. The Huskers have regularly ranked among the top 30 teams in average attendance, including 16th in 2012-13.

2019-20 NEBRASKA WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

HUSKERS GROW TRADITION WITH WILLIAMS By Mike Babcock & Jeff Griesch "This team of Huskers likes to practice. And they say practice makes perfect. And now they are. Perfect regular season! Perfect regular season! Nebraska finishes the regular season perfect - 29-0!" As those words boomed from the voice of Husker playby-play announcer Matt Coatney, the Huskers completed the first unbeaten regular season by a Big 12 men's or women's basketball team in history in 2009-10. Nebraska's win came with more than 2,000 Big Red fans on hand at Bramlage Coliseum in Manhattan, Kan., on a day that All-American Kelsey Griffin erupted for a career-high 36 points on 15-of-19 shooting from the field in an 82-72 win over the Wildcats on March 6, 2010. For Griffin and the Huskers, it was another step in a history-making season that left the Nebraska record book in turmoil and the Husker Nation in a fan frenzy. The win over Kansas State also capped a perfect 16-0 conference campaign that gave the Huskers their first-ever Big 12 crown. Nebraska clinched that title at the Lloyd Noble Center in Norman, Okla., as the No. 3 Huskers ran past No. 11 and defending Big 12 champion Oklahoma, 80-64 on Feb. 24. Griffin, the 2010 Big 12 Player of the Year, dominated the Sooners as well, pouring in 30 points while pulling down 13 rebounds, as NU improved to 13-0 in league play. Nebraska returned home to power past Missouri, 67-51, as Griffin led the Huskers with 19 points and career highs of 17 rebounds and five blocked shots. Following the game, the first-ever sellout crowd of 13,595 fans at the Devaney Center stayed to witness the presentation of the Big 12 regular-season trophy and a netcutting ceremony on the Huskers' homecourt. After the ceremony, Griffin and the Huskers signed autographs for nearly 1,000 fans until almost midnight in the hallway near the locker room. "We were sorry to keep them waiting so long, and we just couldn't stop signing," Griffin said. "Our fans have been awesome and it was an amazing night. We wanted to celebrate with them and send them home happy." Griffin and the 2010 Huskers sent the fans home happy one more time on Senior Night with a 77-52 win over Kansas to complete a perfect 16-0 home campaign. Griffin and fellow first-team All-Big 12 selections Cory Montgomery and Yvonne Turner, along with seniors Kala Kuhlmann, Nicole Neals and Nikki Bober were honored as the largest and most successful senior class in school history. More than 12,000 fans were on hand for their finale, the seventh consecutive crowd exceeding 10,000 to end the season - matching the total number of crowds of greater than 10,000 in the previous 35 seasons of Nebraska women's basketball. The Huskers stretched their school-record winning streak to 30 games before falling in the Big 12 Tournament semifinals to No. 11 Texas A&M. At 30-1, the Huskers earned the first No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament in school history, before beating Northern Iowa and UCLA at Williams Arena in Minneapolis to advance to the program's first NCAA Sweet 16. Nebraska's breakthrough 32-2 season ended with a loss to No. 19 Kentucky at the Sprint Center in Kansas City. But the loss did not define the 2010 Huskers or their impact on Nebraska women's basketball. In the locker room in the moments following the loss, Coach Connie Yori focused on the history and memories her team made. "In the years to come when we look back on this year, we are going to remember everything that we accomplished," Yori said. "But you all know I've said this all along, when you look back on your time at Nebraska, you won't remember the wins and losses. You are going to remember all the great times you had with your teammates on and off the court." Nebraska's focus on team chemistry, love and respect for one another, character, effort and mental toughness, allowed the Huskers to succeed at the highest levels of any team in school history. Nebraska's first winner of the Senior CLASS Award in

Amy Williams was named Nebraska's 10th women's basketball coach on April 11, 2016. A four-year letterwinner at Nebraska (Amy Gusso, 1995-98), Williams was the Summit League Coach of the Year at South Dakota in 2015 and 2016. She was the Big Ten Coach of the Year after leading Nebraska to the 2018 NCAA Tournament. any sport, Griffin produced one of the best senior seasons in school history by averaging 20.1 points and 10.4 rebounds per game. She led an unprecedented hardware haul by Husker players by being named a first-team All-American by the WBCA, AP, USBWA and the Wooden Award. A Wade and Naismith Trophy and Wooden Award finalist, Griffin was a three-time first-team All-Big 12 selection. She was joined by Montgomery and Turner on the first team, while Dominique Kelley earned honorablemention accolades and Lindsey Moore was named to the Big 12 All-Freshman Team. Griffin and Turner were both named to the league's five-player All-Defensive Team, while Turner was named the Big 12 Co-Defensive Player of the Year. The Huskers continued to make history after the season ended, as Griffin was chosen as the No. 3 overall pick in the 2010 WNBA Draft. Selected by the Minnesota Lynx and then traded to the Connecticut Sun, Griffin became the highest Husker draft pick in history. A little more than one hour later, Montgomery joined Griffin as the first pick of the third round with the No. 25 overall pick to the New York Liberty. "It was truly a special season - a season that we will all remember for the rest of our lives," Yori said. "This was the hardest working team and the best practicing team I have ever coached, and the results were obvious. This team deserved every win and every award it received." Yori was named the WBCA, AP, USBWA, Naismith and Kay Yow National Coach of the Year. She also earned Big 12 Coach of the Year honors. She added Big Ten Coach-ofthe-Year honors in 2013 and 2014. In 2014, Nebraska captured its first-ever conference tournament title by winning the Big Ten crown at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Jordan Hooper, who replaced Griffin in Nebraska's starting lineup, earned Big Ten Player-of-the-Year honors and first-team WBCA All-America accolades - just like her predecessor. Hooper, a 6-2 forward from Alliance, Neb., tied Griffin's school record with 40 double-doubles and was named a first-team Senior CLASS All-American. A tremendous outside shooter, Hooper also smashed NU's three-point record with 295 in her career. She averaged 20.4 points and 9.1 rebounds per game to lead the Huskers to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. In 2013, Hooper helped the Big Red to their second NCAA Sweet 16, after leading NU to an NCAA Tournament bid in 2012. In her final three seasons,

Hooper's Husker teams averaged 25 wins per season, the best three-year stretch in Nebraska history. Hooper went on to be the No. 13 overall pick in the 2014 WNBA Draft by the Tulsa Shock. Hooper's selection, which followed Lindsey Moore's No. 12 pick by the 2013 WNBA champion Minnesota Lynx, gave the Huskers three top-15 WNBA picks and six All-America awards claimed by the Huskers from 2010 to 2014. Like the 2010 team, the 2014 Huskers featured All-Big Ten players from top-to-bottom in their starting five. Rachel Theriot earned honorable-mention All-America accolades after being named the Big Ten Tournament MVP and a firstteam All-Big Ten choice. Emily Cady and Tear'a Laudermill added second-team All-Big Ten awards, while Hailie Sample claimed a spot on the Big Ten All-Defensive Team. Although the Huskers lost Hooper to graduation and Theriot to injury 21 games into the 2014-15 campaign, Nebraska's senior class of Cady, Laudermill, Sample and Brandi Jeffery continued the Huskers' NCAA Tournament tradition. The four seniors became the most successful class in history by becoming the first group of Huskers to advance to four consecutive NCAA tournaments. They also became the first class to produce four straight 20-win seasons on their way to a four-year program record 96 wins. In 2015-16, Yori's 14 seasons at Nebraska came to an end with an 18-13 record that included a trip to the Postseason WNIT. She finished as the winningest coach in Nebraska women's basketball history with 280 victories, averaging 20 wins per season. Yori had come to Nebraska on June 24, 2002. She took over following back-to-back losing seasons under Coach Paul Sanderford, and struggled to an 8-20 mark with only a handful of scholarship players in 2002-03. In her second season, Nebraska improved to 18-12 overall and made its first of seven straight postseason tournament appearances. The Huskers added a postseason trip in 2004-05, despite featuring four first-time starters. Sophomore Kiera Hardy earned first-team All-Big 12 honors, while Jelena Spiric claimed Big 12 Newcomer-of-the-Year accolades. NU was also back in the top 25 in the national attendance rankings, averaging more than 4,000 fans per game. The Huskers also produced the biggest win in school history with a 103-99 triple overtime victory over eventual national champion Baylor at Devaney on Jan. 12. Nebraska made a third straight Postseason WNIT trip in 2005-06, again featuring Hardy as a first-team All-Big 12

BIG RED BUILD TITLE TRADITION IN BIG TEN guard, while adding Big 12 All-Freshman selection Kelsey Griffin at forward. Hardy and Griffin helped the Huskers to a 19-13 mark in 2005-06, but still came up a win or two short of their goal of getting Nebraska back to the Big Dance. That mission was accomplished in 2007, as Hardy earned first-team All-Big 12 honors for the third straight season while shattering NU's career three-point record. Griffin joined Hardy with first-team All-Big 12 accolades, and the Huskers finished with a 22-10 overall record and a trip to the 2007 NCAA Tournament in Raleigh, N.C. The Huskers fell in the first round to Temple, but it set up a repeat trip to the Big Dance in 2008. This time around, the 21-12 Huskers, again led by first-team All-Big 12 forward Griffin, knocked off Xavier in the first round. After picking up just the third NCAA Tournament win in school history, the Huskers battled top-seeded Maryland down to the wire on the Terps' homecourt. Griffin was the only returning starter on the 2008 team, as she was joined by senior Danielle Page, sophomore Yvonne Turner, junior college transfer Tay Hester and freshman Dominique Kelley in the Husker starting five. The Huskers entered 2008-09 with high hopes, but those aspirations were tempered by a preseason foot injury to Griffin. Her injury required a pair of surgeries and she was forced to redshirt. Nebraska's inside depth was further challenged by a season-ending knee injury to Nikki Bober near the end of non-conference play. Starting forward Cory Montgomery played the entire season, but battled multiple injuries that limited her practice time early in the year. Turner also played through a shoulder injury, while Kaitlyn Burke, a part-time starter at shooting guard, struggled with a broken finger on her shooting hand. Despite starting conference play 1-8, the Huskers refused to surrender and closed the Big 12 campaign as one of the league's hottest teams. NU finished the regular season with a 15-14 mark and a 6-10 Big 12 record to secure a seventh straight postseason trip. Griffin, Turner, Montgomery and Kelley all returned to the starting lineup in 2009-10, and added Moore, the 2009 Washington High School Player of the Year at the point guard spot. The starting five, along with experienced senior reserves Kala Kuhlmann and Nicole Neals, and juniors Catheryn Redmon and Jessica Periago gave the Huskers the talent and depth to contend on the national level. After injuries and graduation left the Huskers shorthanded in 2010-11, a young Nebraska squad began a new building process in 2011-12. In the Huskers' first-ever Big Ten Conference season, a roster that featured six freshmen among just 10 active players rolled to the fourth-highest victory total in school history with a 24-9 record. After posting a 10-6 Big Ten regular-season mark, the Huskers stormed to the Big Ten Tournament Championship Game before falling in two overtimes to Purdue. The young Huskers advanced to the school's 10th NCAA Tournament after posting nine wins over 2012 NCAA Tournament teams. Not only did the Huskers have to overcome their own inexperience, all five starters overcame injuries to start every game during the season. Hooper became the first sophomore in school history to reach 1,000 career points, while becoming the first NU sophomore to produce 600 points and 300 rebounds in a season. Nebraska's first-ever first-team All-Big Ten selection, Hooper also claimed honorable-mention All-America honors from the AP and the WBCA. A candidate for the Wade and Naismith National Playerof-the-Year awards, Hooper was joined on the Naismith watch list by Moore. The 5-9 junior was also one of eight finalists for the Nancy Lieberman Award as the nation's top point guard. A second-team All-Big Ten pick, Moore joined Hooper on the Big Ten All-Tournament Team and in Nebraska's 1,000-point club. Cady earned a spot on the Big Ten All-Freshman team after producing one of the best rookie seasons in school history. The 6-2 forward from Seward, Neb., joined Sample in becoming the first freshmen in school history to start every game together during their rookie seasons.

All-American Kelsey Griffin earned Big 12 Player-of-the-Year honors while leading the Huskers to 30 straight wins and a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. She had her jersey retired on Jan. 29, 2014. The duo went on to join Hooper in the starting five for 100 consecutive games in Nebraska's first three seasons of Big Ten play. That trio, along with Nebraska's career assist leader and 2013 honorable-mention All-American Moore, fueled the Huskers to their second NCAA Sweet 16. NU's four returning starters were joined by another Big Ten All-Freshman selection, Rachel Theriot, in powering the Huskers to a 25-9 record and a 12-4 Big Ten mark. The Huskers played for a share of the Big Ten regularseason title in the final home game at the Devaney Center. Although they came up short, the Huskers went on to defeat Chattanooga, 73-59 in the first round of the NCAA Tournament at College Station, Texas. Two nights later, the sixth-seeded Huskers pulled one of the biggest upsets of the tournament, knocking off SEC Tournament champion and No. 9 ranked Texas A&M, 74-63, on the Aggies' homecourt at Reed Arena. Moore closed her amazing career with her fifth doubledouble, producing 20 points and 10 assists. Sample made a triumphant return to her home state with 10 points and 11 rebounds to add her first career double-double. Moore, who led NU to three NCAA tournaments including a pair of Sweet 16 bids, started more games (132) and played more minutes (4,360) than any player in school history. She also set the school record with 699 career assists, while adding 1,673 points. Hooper was the lone senior on NU's 2013-14 squad, but she was joined by juniors Cady, Sample and Laudermill, and sophomore honorable-mention All-America point guard Theriot in the starting five. The 2014 Huskers finished with a 26-7 overall record for the second-best winning percentage in school history,

SIX ALL-AMERICA AWARDS SINCE 2010

while adding a 12-4 Big Ten mark. NU played for a share of the Big Ten regular-season title again on the final day of the season, but came up short at Purdue. After having a nine-game conference winning streak snapped in West Lafayette, the Huskers rallied for three straight convincing wins over Minnesota, No. 19 Michigan State and No. 23 Iowa at the Big Ten Tournament. After earning their first-ever NCAA Tournament automatic bid, the Huskers claimed a No. 4 seed and defeated Fresno State, 74-55, at Pauley Pavilion in Los Angeles. NU moved one game away from a chance to compete as a host in the NCAA Sweet 16 in its new Pinnacle Bank Arena, but came up short in an 80-74 loss to BYU. The Cougars joined 2014 NCAA champion Connecticut, Texas A&M and DePaul for the NCAA Lincoln Regional in 2014 - the first NCAA Tournament basketball games in Lincoln since 1993. Nearly 17,000 fans watched the three games in Lincoln, leading UConn Coach Geno Auriemma to acknowledge and praise the rise of women's basketball at Nebraska. "Everybody's heard about the crowds here, the facilities here. Everything that's going on here. Every day's been great. The people are phenomenal. The building is spectacular. This is really, really, really nice. There's no doubt in my mind there will be another regional here, no question. Most places are fans of their team, not necessarily fans of the game. Here I think they take tremendous pride in their team, their school and the community, and they showed it." The move into the new Pinnacle Bank Arena in downtown Lincoln brought even more excitement to Husker basketball. The $179 million arena held a schoolrecord-tying 16 home wins in 2013-14, along with the 11th-highest average home attendance (6,161) in NCAA

2019-20 NEBRASKA WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

HUSKERS BUILD POSTSEASON TRADITION women's basketball. Nebraska's total attendance of more than 110,000 ranked eighth nationally and was the secondbest total in school history, trailing only the 2010 season. The Big Red attracted more than 6,000 fans per game to Pinnacle Bank Arena again in 2014-15, and ranked among the top 10 nationally in total attendance in each of the Huskers' first three seasons in the new building. The current atmosphere is a far cry from its humble beginnings on the UNL campus. In March of 1898, a university women's team played a game against an outside opponent for the first time. The opposition was provided by a team from Council Bluffs, Iowa. The contest was played at the Nebraska armory, Grant Memorial Hall. Among the matters to be resolved before the game was whether men's rules or those of Smith College should apply. In 1894, only three years after Dr. James Naismith established the rules for basketball, Senda Berenson, director of physical education at Smith College in Massachusetts, modified Naismith's game for women. In contrast to the Nebraska team, the captain of which was graduate student Louise Pound, the team from Council Bluffs had been playing by the more physical men's rules. A compromise was reached. The first half would by played by men's rules, the second by Smith College rules. The teams played six on a side: two centers, two guards and two forwards. Pound played center. Another issue was whether men should be allowed to attend. Administrators decided that any "gentleman'' accompanied by a "lady'' would be admitted, but single men might be prohibited lest the game attract the wrong kind of audience. The unflattering bloomers women wore in gym classes were regarded as inappropriate dress for mixed company, regardless of the circumstances. As a result, intramural track and field competition involving women was held indoors until 1904.

Early basketball games involving the university women were well-attended, and there was "always a goodly surplus in the treasury,'' according to the Nebraska State Journal. The gymnasium was filled well in advance of the game's start. The Council Bluffs team, made up of girls who were "slighter of build and younger,'' proved to be no match for Pound and her university teammates. Pound, who also was the first all-university tennis champion, accounted for three field goals and five free throws in a 15-7 win. The play of Nebraska's Harriet Cooke and Marie Beach drew mention in newspaper accounts. Cooke, like Pound, played center and accounted for Nebraska's other points. Beach was a guard, along with Marie Kennedy. The Council Bluffs forwards were much shorter and had difficulty passing the ball over Beach and Kennedy to their centers, who were responsible for scoring goals. Bertha du Teil and Helen Welch were Nebraska's forwards. Rose Long was a substitute. Basketball was introduced in the university's physical education classes for sophomore women in 1896. As was the case with male students, class teams competed against each other. The first all-university women's team was organized in 1896, according to the Nebraska State Journal. It included the best players regardless of their class, among them Welch, the only player from that first team who participated in the contest against the Council Bluffs team in March of 1898. Welch and her five teammates were "trained'' by Anne Louise Barr and played other inter-class teams. The first women's game played before an audience was part of NU's sixth annual gymnasium exhibition in the spring of 1897, according to Phyllis Kay Wilke's "Physical Education for Women at Nebraska University, 1879-1923,'' published in the spring 1975 issue of Nebraska History.

Karen Jennings earned the 1993 Wade Trophy and was Nebraska's first first-team AllAmerican. Jennings was a two-time CoSIDA Academic All-American of the Year for women's basketball and was inducted into the CoSIDA Academic All-America Hall of Fame in 2008.

Pound was the driving force in women's basketball at the university, organizing as well as playing on the earliest teams. She was a member of the team in the 1898-99 school year. It didn't play any opponents from outside of the university and very few intramural opponents, for that matter, because a large pipe organ donated by an alumni group was stored in the gym. In April of 1901, the university sponsored a women's state tournament under Pound's direction at Grant Hall. Nebraska was represented by a first and second team in a field that included teams from the Omaha YWCA, Lincoln High and Wahoo High. The university's first team, led by captain Eleanore Miller, won the two-day competition. In November of 1901, Nebraska played a team from the University of Missouri at Grant Hall, "the first intercollegiate match for girls ever played in the west,'' according to the Nebraska State Journal. Missouri was no match for its experienced opponent. Miller, who was still on the varsity team, had been succeeded as captain by Hannah Pillsbury. Nebraska won 31-4. The varsity team had yet to lose in its brief history. Nebraska's varsity team didn't play against outside competition again until 1903, when it defeated the Omaha YWCA in Omaha 18-9 and a team from the Haskell Indian School in Lawrence, Kan., 42-8. The University second team also played that day, defeating Baker University, 22-1. Efforts were being made to encourage intercollegiate competition for women, according to the Nebraska student yearbook for 1902, The Sombrero. The next university yearbook, published two years later, noted that women's basketball was experiencing dramatic growth. In 1904, Nebraska suffered its first defeat, losing to the University of Minnesota at Minneapolis after opening an abbreviated schedule by shutting out the Lincoln YWCA 16-0. NU avenged the loss two weeks later in Lincoln. Nebraska was 3-0 in 1905, against the Haskell Indian School, Missouri and the Omaha YWCA, the last two games on the road. The season was short but successful, the student yearbook noted: "Owing to an inability to schedule games with desirable teams, only three games were played.'' In 1907, no women's varsity team was picked. In March of 1908, Nebraska played games against Minnesota, home-and-home, two weeks apart. Nebraska lost them both, 9-3 and 28-22, after a five-minute overtime. Earlier, NU had defeated a team from Nebraska Wesleyan to finish its final season with a 1-2 record. Despite their remarkable success, the university women were allowed to play basketball only in physical education classes after April 24, 1908. In response to the concerns of faculty members, who considered such activity inappropriate, the Board of Regents abolished intercollegiate athletics for women. More than 60 years passed before the University sponsored women's teams. Women's club teams were formed beginning in 1970. In 1974-75, such a team coached by Jan Callahan won nine of 16 games. Only three of the games were against opponents from outside the state. The team played on the small court in Mabel Lee Hall, which was named for the women's physical education director from 1924 to 1952. A typical audience might be 30, mostly friends and relatives of the players. The modern era of women's basketball at Nebraska more accurately dates from 1975, with the arrival of Aleen Swofford as women's athletic director and the offering of scholarships. The total budget for women's athletics was less than $40,000. George Nicodemus, an Iowa native who had directed John F. Kennedy College in Wahoo, Neb., to a pair of AAU women's national titles, succeeded Callahan as volunteer coach of NU's fledgling program in 1975. With seven scholarships and Jan Crouch, his tallest starter at 5-foot11, Nicodemus produced a 22-9 record in his first season. The Huskers finished third in the Big Eight Tournament in Manhattan, Kan., in February of 1976. They won the state collegiate tournament held at Midland College in Fremont, Neb.; lost in the second round of an Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) regional tournament in Fargo, N.D.; and finished by winning two

consolation games at the National Women's Invitational Tournament at Amarillo, Texas. "We are only a couple of tall girls away from winning a national championship,'' Nicodemus said after his first year. Nicodemus, whose duties also included the softball program, became a paid coach his second season at Nebraska, receiving an annual salary of $12,000. The Huskers finished 20-14 and took second to Kansas State at the league tournament in Boulder, Colo. Nebraska's season ended with a 74-54 loss at Nebraska-Omaha in the first round of the state tournament. The UNO game was Nicodemus' last as NU's coach. Dr. June Davis, who had served for two years as women's sports information director at the university, succeeded Swofford as women's athletic director and set about replacing Nicodemus. He passed away on Sept. 3, 2016, at the age of 92. Davis hired Marcia Walker, who had spent two years at Dakota Wesleyan. Walker announced she would resign with about a third of a 12-14 season remaining. The team would have four more coaches in the next nine years, including Lorrie Gallagher, Colleen Matsuhara, Kelly Hill and Angela Beck, who finally brought stability to the program in 1986. Gallagher followed Walker and coached two 20-win seasons, both of which earned the Huskers AIAW regional tournament berths. The first of Matsuhara's three teams advanced to an AIAW regional, making it three in a row. NU would have only one winning season in the next five. The Huskers lost nearly twice as often as they won during the next two years, which preceded the promotion of Dr. Barbara Hibner to women's athletic director and Beck's arrival from Bradley. Among the dominant Nebraska players of the late 1970s and early 1980s were 1,000-point career-scorers Jan Crouch, Diane DelVigna, Janet Smith, Kathy Hagerstrom, Cathy Owen, Debra Powell, Stacy Imming and Angie Miller. Powell finished her four-year career in 1984-85 with 1,843 points. Powell was the first Husker to earn first-team All-Big Eight honors, earning the award as a junior. DelVigna was the most prolific of the eight scorers, averaging 19.1 points per game during her two seasons at NU. Smith, who played on the three consecutive AIAW regional qualifiers coached by Gallagher and Matsuhara, pulled down a school-record 1,280 rebounds and scored 1,284 points. The 29-year-old Beck, a native of Decatur, Ill., had been an All-American at Millikan, an NCAA Division III school in her hometown. Beck inherited two players who helped the Huskers make history by capturing their first Big Eight regular-season title, the best record in school history and the first NCAA Tournament bid in 1988. The two players, both Nebraskans, were Maurtice Ivy and Amy Stephens. The 5-foot-9 Ivy joined the Huskers in 1984, after a remarkable career at Omaha Central. She was a three-time Super-State basketball player and was chosen by the Lincoln Journal Star as the state's outstanding female high school athlete for 1984. Stephens arrived a year later from Alliance, Neb., where she enjoyed a high school career as much publicized as that of Ivy. Both were prolific scorers. Ivy was the first player to score 2,000 career points at Nebraska. She reached that total, appropriately enough, at the Bob Devaney Sports Center on "Maurtice Ivy Night'' in February of 1988. Mayor Bernie Simon had declared Feb. 17, "Maurtice Ivy Day'' in Omaha. A proclamation to that effect was read before the game against Kansas. Ivy received a plaque from Omaha's Lewis and Clark Junior High, and her high school coach announced that her No. 22 jersey was being retired by Omaha Central. Proving her sense of the dramatic was as keen as her shooting eye, Ivy hit a free throw with 23 seconds left for point No. 2,001. That point also secured what would be a 76-72 victory. Ivy hit three more free throws before game's end. The win was crucial to Nebraska winning the conference crown and earning an at-large bid in the NCAA Tournament. The season and Ivy's Nebraska career ended at 22-7 with a 100-82 loss at USC in the first round of the regional at Los Angeles. Ivy was chosen as the 1988 Big Eight Player of the Year. Beck was the conference coach of the year, and Kim

Jordan Hooper earned first-team WBCA AllAmerica honors after being named the 2014 Big Ten Player of the Year. Hooper was a starter on the USA Basketball World University Games Team that won gold in Russia in 2013. Harris, a transfer from Bradley, earned Big Eight Newcomerof-the-Year honors. Ivy, whose career point total reached 2,131, was named to the Big Eight's all-decade women's basketball team for the 1980s. Stephens, who finished just 24 points shy of 2,000, received honorable mention on the all-decade team. Karen Jennings was recruited from Persia, Iowa, in 1989, after playing six-on-six, half-court basketball at TriCenter High School in Neola, Iowa, where she averaged an astonishing 59 points per game as a senior. Jennings adapted quickly to five-on-five basketball, leading the Huskers to back-to-back 20-win seasons as a junior and senior. She was voted the Big Eight Player of the Year both seasons, and in 1992-93, after Nebraska earned an NCAA regional bid, was chosen a first-team WBCA All-American. Nebraska finished second in the Big Eight, then lost to Kansas 64-60 in the conference championship game at Salina, Kan., to enter NCAA play with a 22-7 record. The Huskers defeated San Diego in Lincoln, 81-58, before losing to USC, 78-60, in Los Angeles. During a ceremony at halftime of a victory against Iowa State at the Bob Devaney Sports Center in January of 1995, Karen Jennings' No. 51 jersey was retired. Jennings was the first woman basketball player in the history of the University of Nebraska to be so honored. Given Jennings' accomplishments in four seasons as a Husker, the honor was a slam dunk. She was the first woman in school history to be chosen as a first-team basketball All-American. She was awarded the Margaret Wade Trophy after her senior season. Wade was the first women's coach to be inducted into the National Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass. The trophy named in her honor is presented annually by the WBCA to the women's collegiate player voted to be the nation's best. Jennings twice was honored as the Big Eight Conference Player of the Year. She finished as Nebraska's career scoring leader and the second-leading scorer in conference history. SIX ALL-AMERICA AWARDS SINCE 2010

She was first-team all-conference three times, and she led the Huskers to the NCAA Tournament in 1993. Jennings distinguished herself in the classroom as well. She was a three-time CoSIDA Academic All-American. She earned Big Eight and NCAA post-graduate scholarships, and her academic success, combined with her athletic accomplishments, earned her recognition as the Big Eight Female Athlete of the Year in 1993. Jennings continued to thrive following her tremendous athletic and academic accomplishments at Nebraska. After a successful career as a physical therapist, she changed gears and thrived in the real estate business in Omaha. Along the way, she contributed thousands of hours of community service and began to raise a family. For her success as a collegiate student-athlete and her accomplishments after her career, Jennings was honored with induction into the CoSIDA Academic All-America Hall of Fame in the summer of 2008. Described as "the best of the best of the best" by longtime CoSIDA Academic All-America Hall of Fame spokesman and award-winning broadcaster Dick Enberg, fewer than 300 student-athletes all-time, across all-sports have been honored with Hall of Fame induction. She also was selected to the inaugural class of the University of Nebraska Athletics Hall of Fame in 2015. Beck, who added a freshman walk-on from Spearfish, S.D., named Amy Gusso to her 1994-95 roster, coached Nebraska to the 1996 NCAA Tournament before leaving for the fledgling (and now defunct) American Basketball League after the 1996-97 season. Beck was replaced by Paul Sanderford, who had taken Western Kentucky to the NCAA Tournament 12 times in 15 years as a coach. His Hilltoppers advanced to the semifinals three times and lost in the 1992 title game. The 1997-98 squad led by Anna DeForge included fellow senior Gusso and tied then-school records for wins (23) and conference victories (11) and advanced to an NCAA sub-regional at Norfolk, Va., where it defeated New Mexico before bowing out against perennial power Old Dominion. In 1998-99, the Nicole Kubik-led Huskers finished 21-12 and advanced to the NCAA Tournament, losing to Kentucky 98-92. In 1999-2000, the Huskers achieved another school first by advancing to their third consecutive NCAA Tournament, while Kubik capped her career by finishing as the school's No. 7 all-time scorer while ranking in the top 20 in NCAA Division I history with 418 career steals. Kubik joined fellow seniors Brooke Schwartz and Charlie Rogers in becoming the first Nebraska natives from the same recruiting class to all score 1,000 points. Keeping the best of Nebraska's players at home has continued. Yvonne Turner, the 2006 Nebraska High School Player of the Year, finished her NU career with 1,101 points, while becoming just the sixth guard in Husker history with more than 1,000 points, 200 assists and 200 steals. Dominique Kelley, the 2007 Nebraska High School Player of the Year, joined Turner in the 1,000-point club one year later. Jordan Hooper was the 2008 and 2010 Nebraska High School Player of the Year, and finished her Husker career No. 2 in points (2,357) and rebounds (1,110). Emily Cady became the 13th native Nebraskan in NU's 1,000-point club and closed her outstanding four-year career with 1,461 points, 1,114 rebounds and 305 assists as one of the most versatile players in school history. The Huskers began a new chapter in their women's basketball history with the return of Coach Amy Williams in 2016-17. A hard-working former Husker who earned back-to-back Summit League Coach-of-the-Year honors at the University of South Dakota in 2015 and 2016, Williams led the Huskers through the first year of a substantial rebuilding project in 2016-17. In her second season at Nebraska, Williams captured Big Ten Coach-of-the-Year honors by leading the nation's top turnaround while guiding the Huskers to their 14th NCAA Tournament appearance in school history. As the popularity of women's basketball at Nebraska continues to grow, the Huskers are confident that the best in the growing tradition of Big Red basketball is yet to come.

The 6-2 forward from Persia, Iowa, was a fouryear starter and led Nebraska to the second round of the 1993 NCAA Tournament. The first Husker to have her jersey retired, Jennings' No. 51 was retired in 1994 and formally put on display at the Devaney Center in 2006. A giant banner displaying her name and No. 51 are now on permanent display alongside Maurtice Ivy's No. 30 and Kelsey Griffin's No. 23 at Pinnacle Bank Arena.

In March of 2015, she was named to the inaugural class of the University of Nebraska Athletics Hall of Fame - one of 22 athletes across all sports. Jennings was one of the top student-athletes in NU history.

Jennings' 810 points and 25.3 points per game average in 1991-92 rank as the top single-season totals in school history, while her 10.0 rebounds per game allowed her to average a doubledouble as a junior. She also owns NU's single-game scoring mark with 48 points in an 87-82 win at Kansas State on Jan. 21, 1992. In her freshman season, the Huskers struggled to a 10-18 overall record, but with Jennings as a nucleus, NU improved to 17-11 the next season. She set the Husker sophomore record for scoring average at 20.5 points per game (574 points). NU continued to improve in Jennings' record-setting junior campaign, posting a 21-11 mark and advancing to the National Women's Invitational Tournament.

The 6-2 forward from Alliance, Neb., not only finished in a tie for No. 4 in Big Ten Conference history in three-pointers made, she was also one of only three players in Big Ten history to achieve the combined milestones of 2,300 points and 1,100 rebounds. She was the first Husker to ever accomplish that feat. Hooper, who tied Kelsey Griffin's school record with 40 career double-doubles, became Nebraska's first Big Ten Player of the Year in 2014, joining Griffin

(Big 12, 2010), Karen Jennings (Big Eight, 1993) and Maurtice Ivy (Big Eight, 1988) as the only Huskers to claim conference player-of-the-year awards. As a senior, Hooper became the third first-team All-American in Nebraska history, joining fellow 2,000-point scorers Jennings (1993) and Griffin (2010). A standout on the court, in the classroom and in the community, Hooper was one of five Senior CLASS Award first-team All-Americans. She was a secondteam All-American by the Associated Press before being selected by Tulsa with the No. 13 pick in the WNBA Draft. Hooper led the Big Red to the most successful three-year stretch in school history. NU finished with a 26-7 overall record during Hooper's senior season. The Huskers played for a share of the regular-season Big Ten title in the final game of the year for the second straight season before settling for third with a 12-4 league mark in 2013-14. NU played for a share of the regular-season crown, going 25-9 overall and 12-4 in the Big Ten in 2012-13. As a sophomore, Hooper helped the Huskers to a 24-9 mark and a trip to the Big Ten Tournament title game. After coming up short in those first three championship game appearances, Hooper and the Huskers claimed Nebraska's first-ever conference tournament title with a 72-65 win over Iowa on March 9, 2014, in Indianapolis. Hooper also led the Big Red to three straight NCAA appearances from 2012 through 2014, including the school's second NCAA Sweet 16 bid in 2013. The 2013 and 2014 Huskers also became the first teams in NU history to win NCAA Tournament games in consecutive seasons. Overall, Nebraska averaged 25 wins per season in Hooper's last three years. Prior to her arrival as a two-time Nebraska Gatorade High School Player of the Year (2008, 2010), only one Husker team had ever won more than 23 games in a season. A three-time All-American by both the WBCA and the Associated Press, Hooper was a three-time candidate for the Wade and Naismith trophies. She was a finalist for the Wade and Wooden awards in 2014. She was a three-time first-team All-Big Ten and a two-time Big Ten AllTournament choice. Hooper was also a three-time academic All-Big Ten selection and NU's Big Ten Sportsmanship Award winner in 2014. As a senior, Hooper averaged 20.4 points and 9.1 rebounds to push her career averages to 18.0 points and 8.5 boards per game. She started all 131 games of her career to rank third in NU history, while becoming one of just three Huskers to play 4,000 career minutes. The first pick of the second round of the 2014 WNBA Draft by Tulsa, Hooper averaged 5.8 points and 2.4 rebounds per game as a rookie,

before helping the Shock to the playoffs in her second WNBA season. She played for the Dallas Wings in 2016, before splitting time with Connecticut, Atlanta and Chicago in 2017. Hooper played for Besiktas (Turkey) in 2014-15, averaging 13.1 points and 6.0 rebounds per game. Hooper played 15 games for Atenienses de Manat in Puerto Rico before starring for Southeast Queensland in Australia's WNBL in 2015-16. She ranked third in the league with 18.5 points and seventh in the league with 8.6 rebounds per game. She went back to Turkey to play for the University of Istanbul Club in 2016-17, averaging 12.5 points and 6.2 rebounds over 25 games, before returning to the WNBL to average 11.8 points and 5.0 rebounds for the Canberra Capitals in 2017-18. In 2018-19, Hooper played professionally in Israel for Holon, averaging 18.1 points and 8.6 rebounds per game while hitting 37.7 percent of her threes.

2,131 POINTS (3) HONORS & AWARDS • Big Eight Player of the Year (1988) • Three-Time First-Team All-Big Eight (1986, 1987, 1988) • Two-Time Big Eight All-Tournament Team (1987, 1988) • Nebraska Jersey Retired (2011) • Nebraska All-Century Team (2000) • No. 3 on Nebraska Career Scoring List (2,131) • No. 2 on Nebraska Single-Game Scoring List (46 vs. Illinois, Dec. 30, 1986) • No. 7 on Nebraska Career Blocked Shot List (104) • Tied for No. 7 at Nebraska in Career Double-Doubles (21) • No. 8 on Nebraska Career Rebounding List (778) • No. 8 on Nebraska Career Steals List (215) One of the most athletic players in Nebraska history, Maurtice Ivy was the first player in Husker history to surpass the 2,000-point barrier. Ivy, who became the second Husker to have her jersey retired (Jan. 16, 2011), joins fellow 2,000-point scorers Karen Jennings (No. 51, 1994) and Kelsey Griffin (No. 23, 2014) in being honored with giant banners featuring their names and numbers on display at Pinnacle Bank Arena. Ivy was one of five players chosen to Nebraska's All-Century Team in February of 2000, and one of the "25 Women of Distinction" selected in 1999-2000 as part of the school's silver anniversary of women's athletics. The athletic wing player from Omaha Central High School was the first Husker to earn Big Eight Player-of-the-Year honors after leading Nebraska to the Big Eight title in 1988. Ivy also

earned a spot on the Big Eight All-Tournament team in 1986-87 and 1987-88. A three-time first-team All-Big Eight pick, Ivy's 19.2 points per game rank second on Nebraska's career charts, while her 778 career rebounds rank eighth on the Huskers' all-time list. She is also tied for seventh in Husker history with 21 career double-doubles, including 10 as a sophomore in 1985-86. Although Ivy was only 5-9, her outstanding leaping ability and court awareness made her a fierce shot blocker, as she ranks seventh on NU's all-time list with 104 blocked shots. Ivy also ranks, second in career field goals made (847) and attempted (1,799), third in free throws made (431), tied for fourth in free throws attempted (570) and eighth in career steals (215). Ivy's 23.6 points per game average in 1986-87 rank as the second-best single-season scoring average in school history, and her 683 points as a junior rank as the fourth-highest total at Nebraska. Her 153 made free throws and 196 free throws attempted in 1986-87 were single-season Nebraska records until Kelsey Griffin and Dominique Kelley both eclipsed those marks in 2009-10. Ivy produced one of the greatest performances in Husker history when she erupted for 46 points in Nebraska's 100-87 loss to Illinois at Maples Pavilion in Stanford, Calif., on Dec. 30, 1986. It was one of eight 30-point scoring efforts in Ivy's career, including a pair of 35-point performances against Oklahoma and Kansas in 1987. She added the eighth-best rebound total in school history with 19 boards to go along with 23 points in a 104-63 win over Brigham Young at the Illinois Invitational in Champaign, Ill., on Dec. 14, 1985. She also had 29 points and 14 rebounds at Iowa State on Feb. 22, 1986. Along with leading the Huskers to their first conference title, Ivy guided Nebraska to its

A banner with Griffin's No. 23 and her name hang alongside Jennings' No. 51 and Ivy's No. 30 on permanent display at Pinnacle Bank Arena. Griffin produced one of the best senior seasons in school history on her way to first-team All-America honors in 2009-10. The 6-2 forward from Eagle River, Alaska, averaged 20.1 points and 10.4 rebounds per game while leading Nebraska to its best season in school history.

The 2010 Big 12 Player of the Year, Griffin earned first-team All-America honors from the WBCA, Associated Press, U.S. Basketball Writers Association and the Wooden Award while powering Nebraska to its first NCAA Sweet 16 and its first Big 12 regularseason title. Along the way, Griffin was named a finalist for every major national player-of-the-year award (Wade, Naismith, Wooden, Honda) and was Nebraska's first Senior CLASS Award winner in any sport. She was also a finalist for the V Foundation Comeback Award and the National Consortium on Academics and Sports Giant Steps Courageous Student-Athlete Award. Griffin, who led Nebraska to its highest national rankings and first NCAA Tournament No. 1 seed, closed her career with a then-school-record 127 starts. She ranks fourth in school history with 2,033 points and 1,019 rebounds. She joins 1993 Wade Trophy winner Karen Jennings and 2014 first-team All-American Jordan Hooper as the only Huskers in history with 2,000 points and 1,000 boards. Griffin and Hooper also share the NU career record with 40 double-doubles. Griffin produced a single-season record 20 double-doubles as a senior in 2009-10. A three-time first-team All-Big 12 pick, Griffin earned a spot on the Big 12 All-Defensive Team as a senior with single-season career bests of 60 steals, 26 blocks and a remarkable 29 charges drawn. Griffin erupted for a career-high 36 points at Kansas State on March 6 to carry NU to the first perfect season in Big 12 history, helping the Huskers improve to 29-0 overall and 16-0 in the league. She hit 15-of-19 shots against the Wildcats. It was Griffin's fifth career 30-point effort, including her fourth as a senior (31 points, 11 rebounds vs. Creighton; 30/14 vs. No. 5 LSU; 30/13 at No. 11 Oklahoma). Griffin earned six Big 12 Player-of-the-Week awards as a senior, including four straight to end the season. She finished with 104 career double-figure scoring efforts, including each of Nebraska's three games in the 2010 NCAA Tournament, when she averaged 18.3 points and 11.7 rebounds per game. After a sensational start as a freshman, Griffin battled illness down the stretch, limiting her playing time during the last half of the 2006 Big 12 season. In 2006-07, she was challenged by a breathing condition with effects similar to asthma. In 2007-08, Griffin played the entire year with a protective vest after cracking a rib in an exhibition game. The rib injury and breathing condition could not stop Griffin from averaging 16.8 points and 8.2 rebounds. They also couldn't stop her from carrying NU to its first NCAA Tournament win since 1998. Griffin erupted for 26 points going head-tohead with Xavier's post duo of 6-6 Ta'Shia Phillips and 6-5 Amber Harris to guide NU to a win over the Musketeers in College Park, Md. However, in 2008-09 Griffin was forced to miss the entire season with a foot injury that required a pair of surgeries. She returned to full health before the start of the 2009-10 campaign.

Following her collegiate career, Griffin was the No. 3 overall pick in the WNBA Draft by the Minnesota Lynx. She was quickly traded to the Connecticut Sun, where she earned one of five spots on the 2010 WNBA All-Rookie Team. Griffin spent her fifth WNBA season with the Connecticut Sun in 2014. In 2013, Griffin started all 34 games while averaging 8.7 points and 5.0 rebounds. She played 133 WNBA games with 61 starts in her first four seasons, while averaging 5.0 points and 3.9 boards per game in her career. Griffin played professionally in Hungary in 201011 and Israel in 2011-12, before joining the Bendigo Spirit in Australia's WNBL in 2012-13. She led Bendigo to the WNBL title and was named the MVP of the championship series in both 2013 and 2014. Griffin was a member of the WNBL All-Star Five and the league's Defensive Player of the Year in 2014-15, averaging 16.0 points and 9.2 rebounds. She played alongside former Husker teammate and Canadian Olympian Chelsea Aubry in Bendigo for three seasons (2012-13 to 2014-15). In 2015-16, Griffin ranked fourth in the WNBL in scoring (17.9 ppg), third in rebounding (10.0 rpg), fourth in steals (41) and ninth in blocks (20) despite battling a hamstring injury. In 2016-17, she averaged 15.1 points and 7.7 rebounds, before spending her sixth and final season in Bendigo in 2017-18.
