Huskers Travel to San Diego to Slay Dragons
The Nebraska women's basketball team hits the road for the first time in 2021-22, when the Huskers travel to San Diego to take on Drexel at The Dana on Mission Bay Holiday Tournament on Friday at Jenny Craig Pavilion.

Tip-off between the Huskers (5-0) and the Dragons (3-1) is set for 6 p.m. (CT), with the Huskers Radio Network call of Matt Coatney and Jeff Griesch on Huskers.com. Friday's game can be heard in Lincoln on 105.3 FM, along with free audio from Huskers.com and on the Huskers App. 

Drexel will be Nebraska's first opponent this season that qualified for the 2021 NCAA Tournament. The Dragons won the Colonial Athletic Association tournament title last season to earn the CAA's automatic bid, before falling 67-53 to Georgia in the NCAA first round in San Antonio.

After facing the Dragons on Friday, the Huskers will battle either 2021 WNIT qualifier Fresno State or the hosts from San Diego in the second game of the four-team tournament on Saturday. San Diego is coached by former Nebraska assistant Cindy Fisher.

Maybe five 3 pointers and 3 free throws (fouled on a 3)?  Not sure.

[Red Don]

I hope the inside shots start falling better for us in the 2nd Half.

We Need to get something going inside!!!! 

[Cazzie22]

Gee, I am really glad Jaz transferred to Nebraska. The Dragons are a much better test than the earlier opposition. 

[Red Don]

Huskers Lead at the end of 3: 45-36

Rebounding is good (37-28) but still need to improve our inside game.

Cayton hitting two threes is an unexpected bonus.

Sounds like Issie is off a bit tonight in her early game, but who can tell when you can't see anything. Also sounds as though we're picking up the pace offensively.

She's a California girl.  Probably has some family in the crowd.  Good timing.

[Red Don]

Drexel aggressive inside 75 shots vs our 49, fortunately only 29%.  They are putting points on the board.

Huskers needed a good, tough test tonight and thankfully Jaz with 30 and Cravens rebounding we get a hard earned win. San Diego should be a good test tomorrow.

[12dozen]

65 - 53.  Well done ladies.  Too bad we didn't get to watch it.

[Cazzie22]

Wow! We had 20 turnovers to their 2.  No wonder they got more shots.
