Huskers Fall to No. 22 Iowa - University of Nebraska
Sam Haiby scored 18 points to lead four Huskers in double figures, while Jaz Shelley added her fifth double-double, but it was not enough to prevent hot-shooting
huskers.com
Despite the blistering shooting from the Hawkeyes, Nebraska kept it a possession game throughout by outworking Iowa on the boards. The Huskers pulled down 23 offensive rebounds and posted a 41-34 edge overall on the glass, but NU was only able to turn their 23 offensive rebounds into 17 second-chance points. Nebraska also won the turnover battle 15-9 and outscored the Hawkeyes 20-12 in points off those miscues.
But Nebraska hit just 39.8 percent (33-83) of its shots, including just 9-of-34 three-pointers (.265). The Huskers also made 11-of-16 free throws.
Huskers Shoot for Win Over No. 22 Iowa - University of Nebraska
The Nebraska women's basketball team continues Big Ten Conference home action when the Huskers play host to No. 22/21 Iowa on Sunday in Lincoln.

The Huskers will be shooting for their second straight win over an Associated Press Top 25 opponent, following a resounding 79-58 victory over No. 8 Michigan at Pinnacle Bank Arena on Tuesday.
Freshman Alexis Markowski, who was making her first career start in place of an injured Bella Cravens (ankle sprain), erupted for a career-high 20 points to go along with seven rebounds to help the Huskers match their largest victory margin ever against a top-10 opponent (also 21 vs. Oklahoma State, 88-67, Feb. 3, 2010). Jaz Shelley, who was mentioned by ESPN.com (Jan. 6) as the No. 2 transfer in the nation so far this, added her fourth double-double with 12 points and 12 rebounds against the Wolverines. Fellow Australian Isabelle Bourne (11 points) and second-team All-Big Ten guard Sam Haiby (10 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals) gave Nebraska four players in double figures against Michigan. Allison Weidner (7), Kendall Coley (7) and Annika Stewart (6) provided strong contributions off the bench for the Big Red, who continue to get outstanding play from the bench.
Iowa comes to Lincoln with a 7-4 overall record and a 1-1 Big Ten mark after a 77-69 home loss to Northwestern on Thursday night. Preseason Big Ten Player of the Year Caitilin Clark had 30 points and All-Big Ten teammate Monika Czinano added 20 in the loss. The Hawkeyes are ranked No. 22 by the Associated Press and No. 21 by the coaches but slipped to No. 40 in the NET ranking with the loss.
