Hopefully hit some shots early and keep their post from being much of a factor tonight 

[Bugeaters1]

Officials:

Brian Hall, Angelica Suffren, Xiomara Cruz-Johnson

[Bugeaters1]

Bad call on Bozan there.

[Cazzie22]

42-26 at half.  We are a hitting threes from several sources.  Markowski is doing a nice job finding open shooters.  Petrie has 10 and everyone has contributed.  Need to keep applying pressure and not surrender the lead.

Nice lead at the half. We're playing pretty smooth, and  shooting for good percentage.

 

Markowski just tied Jordon Hooper for third on the all time Nebraska rebounding list.

 Markowski has passed Hooper on all time rebounding list and only needs about 4 to pass Emily Cady

Good shooting continues. Kendall M. knocked down consecutive threes.  Good ball movement and unselfish play.  Nice to see us extend the lead.

Go K MO

You wonder how long these bottom feeding teams year in and year out will stick with the current coaches? Because Wisy isn't a good team.

[Bugeaters1]

The win moves us into 5th place.

PBA record 16 three's. Moriarty had maybe her best game. (17 pts) Has finally developed to a nice player. Her skills have improved this year.

 

Nice game ladies !!!

I thought we were unselfish and there was some good passing to set up open looks.  Wisconsin isn’t a strong team but it’s nice to win easily.  All ten played well.  Five players in double figures.

Easily the most complete game I've seen this year.  Not the best opponent, but really put it to the ditch weasels.

 

Doesn't hurt to be on fire from 3.

 

For the most part, they neutralized Williams who has given them fits in past games.  She still had good numbers, but she had to work hard for those with numerous uncalled hooking moves and travels.  The ditch weasels really had nothing else to offer.

 

Whatever Moriarty ate for dinner, I hope she sticks with it.

16 made 3s and shot 50%  from distance.

Ditch weasels, gotta love the name.

Rimdal had 8 assists.  She made some excellent plays.

Smoked them.  Absolutely smoked em.

 

It would be easier to try to pick out one of our players who played bad...

[hskr4life]

The ladies just keep winning! This is a Top 25 team no doubt. So they had a rough stretch there for 3 games (all on the road against two Top 10 teams and one Top 25 team)

 

Safe to say this game on Sunday is huge for a variety of reasons, but a Top 4 finish is certainly not out of the equation.

Another benefit of a B1G bottom feeder is Prince only played a little over 25 minutes last night. With OSU coming on Sunday we will need her to be as fresh as possible. 

[B-town hoopsfan]

Serah Williams has that Angel Reese vibe going on…..shoots a lot and misses a lot!  Would guess she makes a nice little pay day in the portal this spring. 
 

a come from behind win vs the ditch chickens followed by a beat down of the ditch Weasel’s not a bad 2 game stretch. 
 

what a get Prince was for AW, has the potential to take us from a mid Big ten squad to a top 5 conference team the next 3.5 years…..Petries development has been so impressive too has kept the offensive skill she showed at times last year and has really held her own on defense
