Huskers Close Home Stand with Spartans
Jasmine Cincore and the Huskers take on San Jose State at Pinnacle Bank Arena on Friday at 7 p.m.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sophomore Jessica Shepard continues to lead the Huskers at the offensive end, averaging 18.1 points and 10.8 rebounds per contest and her fourth double-double of the season with 23 points and a season-high 16 rebounds in Tuesday’s loss to Drake. The 6-4 forward scored 22 points in the second half, but Nebraska relinquished a 33-32 halftime lead in the 84-70 setback to a Bulldog team picked to win the Missouri Valley Conference in preseason voting.
Nebraska freshman are contributing B1G-time: Nicea Eliely ranks second on the team in scoring (8.4 ppg), fourth in rebounding (3.7 rpg), second in assists (2.6 apg) and first in steals (1.8 spg).
Rylie Cascio-Jensen is averaging 2.0 points and 1.1 assists in 12.7 minutes per game this season.
Hannah Whitish has been Nebraska’s top contributor off the bench with 5.6 points and 1.7 assists in 18.1 minutes per contest.
Grace Mitchell has averaged 2.0 points and 1.4 rebounds in 8.9 minutes per game this season.
Nebraska will try to snap a five-game losing streak when the Huskers face San Jose State. NU has lost two games to Pac-12 foes (California, 7-0; Washington State, 5-3) and two more to ACC opponents (Virginia Tech, 8-0; Virginia, 6-2) and the fifth game to Drake (4-3) on Tuesday night. Those five opponents have a combined record of 30-8.
Scouting San Jose State
San Jose State comes to Lincoln with a 2-7 overall record following a Tuesday night loss at San Francisco. The Spartans have played a challenging schedule early in the season, including losses to a top-10 Mississippi State squad at the Rainbow Wahine Showdown and a loss at nationally ranked Arizona State on opening weekend. The Spartans also fell to a 6-1 Oregon team in Hawaii, after opening the tournament with a 16-point win over the Wahine.
Senior Dezz Ramos leads the Spartans on the court, averaging double figures, putting up 19.1 points and a team-best 4.4 assists per game.
Senior Jasmine Smith ranks second on the team in scoring with 8.8 points per game while adding a team-best 7.1 rebounds per contest.
A third senior, 6-2 forward Paris Baird, has pitched in 6.2 points and 4.9 rebounds per game.
Rachol West gives the Spartans four senior starters. The 5-10 guard averages 7.2 points and 2.4 rebounds per game.
Myzanique Ladd, averaging 7.1 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.8 steals per game rounds out an experienced group of starters.
San Jose State has regularly been one of the most aggressive three-point shooting teams in the nation. Through nine games, the Spartans are averaging 25.7 attempts from long range, while hitting 7.4 threes per contest.
