Why Nebraska Women's Basketball Is Making Waves``





Nebraska Women's Basketball Has a New Star

Jaz Shelley, a 5'10" guard from Australia, is lighting up the court for the Cornhuskers. She is averaging 15.7 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game, all while shooting 46.3% from the field. Shelley is a dynamic scorer who can get to the basket or shoot from outside. She is also a very good passer and defender.

A Well-Balanced Team

In addition to Shelley, Nebraska has several other talented players. Forward Sam Haiby is a scoring threat inside and out, guard Taryn Kloth is a great shooter and passer, and center Kate Cain is a force on the boards. The Cornhuskers are a well-balanced team that can beat you in a variety of ways.

Defense Wins Championships

Nebraska's defense is one of the best in the Big Ten. The Cornhuskers are holding opponents to just 61.9 points per game, which is fourth in the conference. Nebraska is also forcing turnovers and getting stops when they need them most.

Big Goals

The Cornhuskers have set their sights on a Big Ten championship this season. They are currently in contention for the regular season title and have a good chance of making a deep run in the NCAA Tournament. With Jaz Shelley leading the way, Nebraska women's basketball is a team to watch.
