2015/16 WBB Season is Finished!
Lady Huskers (18-13; 9-10), Sagarin Rating: #59 (@ 3/17/16)
Thank you Coach Yori for your 14 years of exemplary service at UNL and your accomplishments here; including seven NCAA appearances, two extending to the sweet-sixteen, five WNIT invitations, Big 12 Conference Title and National Coach of the Year, Big Ten Conference Coach of the Year, and not least, 100% graduation rate.
I am certain an exceptional coach will be hired to take over the reigns of this premier WBB program!
