There was a similar article in today's Omaha World Hearld. 

 

With Maddie playing, she does add another dimension. She just might be the most improved since Coach Amy took the reigns. Her added scoring, and rebounding really bring a more complete team to the floor. Her athleticism brings needed team speed.

 

She helps bringing some relief to Kissenger, Cain, and Hannah.  The defense's can't focus so much on the others,  She helps spread out the offense capabilities...scoring. When we started this season I was wondering how Maddie and Jasmine would fit in with the team, and they have really embraced Coaches....coaching.  Luckily they have another year of eligibility.

 

Stay healthy as possible team.....we need every last one of them.

spot on. i think this is the Maddie Simon fans have been waiting to see. remember a number of times last season where i would think "she's got it"-----------only to see her either disappear or her play would struggle. hopefully, the rest of the way we see the former rather than the latter!

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Maddie Simon scored a career-high 20 points Sunday as the Nebraska women won their fourth straight game by thumping San Jose State 81-55................

 

“It felt really good to get out of here with a good road win and not have to play anybody more than 28 minutes when you’re bouncing back and playing again Tuesday,” Williams said.

Yep, that one.    Just hope to see Maddie from now on...particularly during the B1G season. She can make a difference.
