Frosted Flakes: WBB NCAA Chances, Cheerleader Effect and a Quadruple Double

Also, “dumpster fire” is now in the dictionary. It may appear in a message in a bottle someday.

It is a waiting game for the Husker men’s and women’s basketball teams as Selection Sunday approaches. The women advanced to the Big Ten tournament semi-finals, picking up an all-important win against a ranked team (Michigan) before falling to the Maryland Terrapins for the third time this season in the semis.

The game against the Terps was the least competitive of the three the Huskers played against Maryland in 2018. Maryland’s defense locked down Nebraska’s offense really well. It was only the very good Husker defense that kept the game from getting out of hand.

Janay Morton led the Huskers with 15 points. Maddie Simon had 9 points, Hannah Whitish and Kate Cain each had six. Whitish, along with Nicea Eliely were the team’s leading rebounders with five apiece. It was a lackluster performance, but much credit goes to Maryland’s defense and their preparation. In post game interviews, one of their players basically said “We scouted them well, we knew their tendencies”.
