Shelley, a 5-9 graduate guard from Moe (pronounced MO-ee), Australia, earned the first Big Ten Player-of-the-Week award of her career after producing 23 points, three rebounds and five assists in Nebraska's 82-79 come-from-behind upset of No. 2 Iowa in Lincoln on Sunday afternoon.
Shelley completed Nebraska's rally from a 14-point fourth-quarter deficit by scoring Nebraska's final seven points. Her three-pointer with 31 seconds left gave the Huskers their first lead of the game at 78-77, before sealing the victory with four clutch free throws in the final 20 seconds. For the game, Shelley knocked down 5-of-10 three-pointers.
