No Weidner tonight.

[Bugeaters1]

The Huskers are shooting Big Ten bests of 55.9 percent from the field and 47.8 percent from three-point range, which both rank No. 2 nationally.

Officials:

Brian Hall, Natasha Camy, Kim Hobbs

Too many sloppy turnovers in first quarter.  Hake gave the spark that was needed. North Alabama plays better defense than our previous opponents. Whitaker is a veteran coach having played at Texas Tech for Marsha Sharp and coached there.

[Bugeaters1]

Well there went an ACL.

[Bugeaters1]

Who says that Hake can't play D.

[Cazzie22]

36-16 at half but losing Potts is devastating.  Hake has been the best player on the floor.  The sloppy turnovers are inexcusable.  Seems like some of the girls are playing without respect for the opponent.  Playing like this and without Potts the Bluejays will blow us out.

She’s been or best player tonight.

Has there been any confirmation on Natalie Potts injury status?

[Montana_85 F]

She just came out of the locker room on crutches.

[AuroranHusker]

Oh shoot, not great. I really hoped it's not a season ending injury.

Losing Potts would be an absolute killer.

K Mo is going to play a lot of mins. going forward.

 

[AuroranHusker]

Hargrove gets the 2nd half start in this one.

I thought maybe K Mo would get the nod to start.

Petrie comes in for her somewhat quickly, it seemed like Hargrove got lost on D a couple of times that allowed for made threes.

Hope fully  Hargrove gets that side figured out soon.

Petrie has played well.

 

[Cazzie22]

Better effort in 2nd half.  Rimdal addition is huge with Weidner out. I would pair Petrie with Markowski in the starting lineup.  Coley and Moriarity have opportunities to step up and be more than role players.  Everyone has to step up to reduce the impact of losing Potts.  Too much sloppy play for my taste.  Bench played better than the starters.
