Future Husker Jessica Shepard plays for Lincoln Southeast and plays at 10:45 Thur morning. If you get a chance to watch this girl play by all means get out and see her. She's only a sophomore but damn, she's one of the better talents to come out of this state the last ten years.

Is there an internet broadcast?

In my experience, the best place to find the games is via the hometown radio internet broadcasts. I don't think any of them would have video streams until NET airs the finals on Saturday.

 

If someone knows of other options please chime in.

Watched the SE game this morning.  Shepard looks like the real deal.  For a sophomore, I was very impressed with her ball handling abilities in the open court and looked strong in going to the hoops.  She didn't attempt any shots from any distance but free throw shooting touch was very good.

 

Kastanek didn't attempt many shots, but passed to ball well in traffic and had a number of assists I would guess. She plays hard and is pretty strong.  Sometimes tries to do much and was faked out a few times by the Bellevue East players.  Iowa will get a pretty good one with her.  I would guess she would fit their mold pretty well.

Can't help but wonder what the Iowa coaches think when they come over to watch Kastanek in her final days at SE, knowing full well the player they're really coveting is staying here in Lincoln.
