Huskers Shoot for Sweep on Road at Rutgers
The Nebraska women’s basketball team takes aim at its seventh straight win while shooting for a season sweep of Rutgers.
Natalie Romeo put on another amazing shooting display vs Wisconsin by tying her own school record with eight threes to finish with a game-high 30 points. Romeo set the school record with eight threes in a 32-point performance on Jan. 13 at Penn State. She owns four games with six or more threes this season and a trio of 30-point games. She ranks among national leaders with 69 threes on the year.
Allie Havers added her second career double-double with 11 points and a career-high 14 rebounds against the Badgers, Rachel Theriot returned from injury to contribute 14 points and five assists.
Rutgers was 12-5 overall and 3-2 in the Big Ten before coming to Lincoln, but head into Saturday’s game at 12-9 and desperate for a conference win after falling to 3-6 with a 64-48 loss to Indiana. The Scarlet Knights have failed to reach 60 points in each of their last four games.
During its four-game skid, Rutgers is managing just 52 points per game, while shooting just 39 percent from the field, including just 23.9 percent from three-point range. RU also carries a minus-1.8 turnover margin during the slide and a minus-4.5 rebound margin, despite being plus-16 on the glass at Nebraska. In its last three losses, Rutgers has been outrebounded by an average of 11.3 boards per game.
Rutgers, which has played three of its last four games on the road, has been drastically more successful at home (8-2) than on the road (1-7) this season. The Scarlet Knights are 0-5 in Big Ten road play, but 3-1 with only a nine-point loss to No. 7 Ohio State at the RAC.
Kahleah Copper leads the Scarlet Knights, averaging 16.6 points and 8.1 rebounds per game. Rachel Hollivay (6.7 ppg, 6.1 rpg) and Briyona Canty (5.5 ppg,) provide plenty of experience to the Rutgers starting five, as does Tyler Scaife who is averaging a team-best 17.0 points per game.
