Notice of NCAA Probation
From 2007 to 2010 the University of Nebraska unintentionally reimbursed student-athletes for recommended textbooks as well as required textbooks through a failure to properly administer and monitor book scholarships. Only reimbursement for required books is permissible under NCAA rules. As a result, the NCAA placed the University of Nebraska on two-year probation, beginning in January of 2012. The NCAA did not impose additional penalties such as loss of scholarships, forfeiture of games, or a ban on postseason play. Rather, as a condition of probation, Nebraska will continue to educate student-athletes and staff thoroughly on NCAA bylaws and will notify prospective student-athletes of its probationary status.
FOUR RETURNING STARTERS / EIGHT RETURNING LETTERWINNERS | INTRODUCTION

Big Ten Conference Since its inception in 1896, the pursuit and attainment of academic excellence has been a priority for every Big Ten member institution. But maintaining the conference’s status as one of the preeminent athletic conferences in the country also endures as an important component of the Big Ten student-athlete experience. Striking that balance between academics and athletics is integral to the Big Ten’s identity, and the Big Ten’s “Honoring Legends. Building Leaders.” campaign links directly to the Big Ten mission. Recognized as one of intercollegiate sports’ most James E. Delany successful undertakings, the Big Ten strives for success Commissioner from its student-athletes not only on the field and in the classroom, but around the world as well.
Premier Academic Institutions
All Big Ten universities have been granted Tier One Status by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, a distinction awarded to just over 100 universities. Big Ten schools have produced more than 1,450 Academic All-Americans, more than any other conference, including 46 in the last academic year. For the 2011 fiscal year, the Big Ten led all conferences with over $8 billion in research expenditures, more than $2 billion more than any other conference.
Successful Programs
During the 2012-13 season, Big Ten institutions claimed seven national championships: Indiana men’s soccer; Michigan men’s gymnastics; Michigan men’s swimming and diving; Minnesota women’s ice hockey; Nebraska women’s bowling; Ohio State women’s rowing; and Penn State wrestling. Over the last 10 years, the Big Ten is tied for the conference lead with national titles in 14 different NCAA-sponsored championships, including bowling, cross country, fencing, golf, gymnastics, ice hockey, lacrosse, rowing, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, track and field, volleyball and wrestling.
Student-Athlete Opportunities
Big Ten universities provide over $141 million in direct financial aid to more than 8,200 student-athletes, playing on more than 300 teams in 42 sports. The Big Ten sponsors 26 official conference sports, 13 for men and 13 for women, including the debut of men's ice hockey as an official sport in 2013-14. In 2014-15, men's and women's lacrosse will be added as the conference's 27th and 28th official sports, giving the Big Ten more official sports than all conferences other than the Ivy League. Almost 1,400 Big Ten student-athletes and coaches have participated in the Olympics, winning at least 460 medals, including nearly 250 gold.
Television Exposure
Through the Big Ten’s media agreements with CBS Sports, ABC/ESPN, FOX and the Big Ten Network (BTN), nearly 1,000 Big Ten events are produced and distributed nationally on an annual basis. In 2006, the Big Ten created BTN, the first national conference-owned television network. With more than 53 million subscribers in the United States and Canada – and more outside the Big Ten region than inside – BTN allows fans to see their teams compete regardless of where they live.
Attendance
The Big Ten leads all conferences with nearly five million alumni and more than 460,000 students. Big Ten fans are some of the nation’s most supportive, with nearly 9.8 million patrons attending conference home contests during the 2012-13 seasons for football, men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball alone.
Leaders in Innovation The Big Ten first awarded the Big Ten Medal of Honor in 1915, honoring
outstanding senior student-athletes who demonstrate excellence in academics and athletics. The conference will award its 100th Medal of Honor in May 2014. The Big Ten Advisory Commission was formed in 1972. It enlists former student-athletes to serve as liaisons to the NCAA's Diversity and Inclusion Department, the Big Ten Student-Athlete Advisory Commission and other organizations. The Big Ten became the first conference to voluntarily adopt male and female participation goals after launching its Gender Equity Action Plan in 1992. In 2012, the Big Ten partnered with the Ivy League to study the effects of head injuries in sports.

Big Ten Continues to Expand National Reach
Big Ten Network
Headquartered in Chicago, the Big Ten Network is the first internationally distributed television network dedicated to covering one of America’s premier collegiate conferences. With more than 400 live sports events, and virtually all of them in high definition, the Big Ten Network is the ultimate destination for Big Ten fans and alumni across the country. The network is on the air 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The network is available to an estimated 80 million households, through agreements with more than 300 cable/satellite affiliates. In 2011 and 2012, every Big Ten home football game was nationally televised. Including road and neutral games, 99 percent (95 of 96) of Big Ten games were televised nationally in 2012, while the other road game appeared on ESPN3.com.
Big Ten Network Facts MORE TELEVISION EXPOSURE
• The Big Ten’s media agreements with CBS, ABC/ESPN, Fox and BTN provide the conference with its greatest television exposure ever. • In 2006, the Big Ten created the first national conference-owned television network devoted to the athletic and academic programs of a single conference. The Big Ten Network launched on Aug. 30, 2007, and became the first new network in cable or satellite television history to reach 30 million homes in its first 30 days. • Since the current media agreements began in 2007-08, every home football and men’s basketball game has been produced while women’s basketball has received more coverage than any other conference.
“The Big Ten provides a great opportunity for every student-athlete at the University of Nebraska. It is a chance to not only compete at the highest level in arguably the nation's best conference, but also to benefit from some amazing academic resources. Big Ten women's basketball is filled with great teams from top to bottom every night in the league. The Big Ten is a great fit for Nebraska.” Nebraska Coach Connie Yori
• The Big Ten’s new media agreements have resulted in the broadcast of nearly 1,000 events nationally and regionally on an annual basis, compared to 300 events in the final year of the previous agreements.

compliance guidelines for boosters The University of Nebraska Athletic Department takes great pride in abiding by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and the Big Ten Conference rules and guidelines that govern Division I competition. For the benefit of the many alumni, fans and booster club members who are so active in supporting and assisting the Huskers throughout the year, we would like to remind everyone of a few definitions and rules that apply to all athletic representatives and boosters.
NCAA Principles
Institutional Control It is the responsibility of the University of Nebraska to control its intercollegiate athletic program in compliance with the rules and regulations of the NCAA. Responsibility The University of Nebraska’s responsibility for the conduct of its program includes responsibility for the actions of its staff members and for the actions of any other individual, booster or organization engaged in activities promoting the athletic interests of the institution. Compliance The University of Nebraska must monitor its program to assure compliance and to identify and report to the NCAA instances in which compliance has not been achieved. An institution found to have violated NCAA rules is subject to disciplinary and corrective actions as determined by the NCAA. Questions and Answers for Fans, Boosters, Alumni and Representatives of Athletic Interests
Definitions
Q: What is a booster? A: Someone who belongs to a University of Nebraska athletic booster club; promotes or makes financial donations to the athletic department or a specific Husker team; assists in the recruitment of prospective studentathletes; employs, gives benefits to, or provides services to a studentathlete, a prospective student-athlete or the relative/friends of either. REPRESENTATIVE OF ATHLETIC INTEREST (I.E. BOOSTERS), NCAA BYLAW 13 Q: Who is a Prospective Student-Athlete? A: A prospective student-athlete is a student who has started classes for the ninth grade or above, including students in prep schools and junior colleges as well as students who have officially withdrawn from a four-year institution and plan to transfer to another institution. In addition, a student who has not started classes for the ninth grade becomes a prospective student-athlete if the institution or a Nebraska booster provides the individual or the individual’s relatives or friends with any financial assistance or benefits that the institution does not provide to prospective students in general. A good rule of thumb is to treat ALL STUDENTS as prospects. Q: Who is a Student-Athlete? A: A student-athlete is a student whose enrollment was solicited by a member of the Nebraska athletic staff or other representative of athletic interests with a view toward the student’s ultimate participation in the intercollegiate athletic program. Q: What is Contact? A: Contact is ANY face-to-face encounter between a prospect, or the prospect’s parent or legal guardian, and a Nebraska staff member or athletic representative during which any dialogue occurs. Q: What is Recruiting? A: Recruiting is any solicitation of a prospect or a prospect’s family member (or guardian) by an institutional staff member or by athletic representative of the institution, for the purpose of securing the prospect’s enrollment and ultimate participation in Nebraska’s intercollegiate athletic program.

It will be the opening game of a men's and women's basketball doubleheader at the arena on Nov. 8, as the Husker men take on 2013 NCAA Sweet 16 participant Florida Gulf Coast. The women will hold a special "Invest 2 Be The Best" life skills pep rally before their game with the Bruins, with thousands of middle schoolers in attendance. Attendance at the two games is expected to reach between 25,000 and 30,000 for the arena's regular-season debut.

FOUR RETURNING STARTERS / EIGHT RETURNING LETTERWINNERS | INTRODUCTION

Hooper Headlines Four Returning Husker Starters Nebraska women's basketball will hit Husker fans with an exciting mix of old and new in 2013-14. The oldie but goodie starts with senior Jordan Hooper. A two-time honorable-mention All-American and firstteam All-Big Ten selection, Hooper has proven herself as one of the most prolific scorers, rebounders and threepoint shooters in Husker history. Hooper hopes to spend her fourth year in the Nebraska starting five chasing school records for points and rebounds, while shattering NU's three-point record. Hooper enters to the 2013-14 campaign ranked 10th in the Nebraska record book with 1,685 points. She needs 720 points to catch NU's all-time leading scorer and 1993 Wade Trophy winner Karen Jennings atop that list with 2,405 points. Hooper has scored more than 600 points each of the last two seasons. Hooper also heads into her senior season ranked fifth on the Nebraska career rebounding chart with 811. She needs 469 rebounds to catch NU all-time leader Janet Smith atop that list. Hooper has pulled down 300 or more rebounds in each of the last two seasons. As a three-point shooter, Hooper has buried 215 threes in her first three seasons for the Huskers. She needs just 52 more to catch three-time first-team All-Big 12 guard Kiera Hardy atop the NU list with 267. Hooper has averaged more than 70 threes per season, including 81 for the Huskers a year ago. During the summer, Hooper took her game to another level by competing on the USA Basketball World University Games Team that won a gold medal in Russia. Hooper started the gold-medal game and powered the USA to victory with nine points and nine rebounds in the win over Russia. "Jordan is one of the best players the state of Nebraska has ever produced," Nebraska Coach Connie Yori said. "She is extremely athletic and versatile. She is more than just a good athlete, she has great basketball skill. She also has an excellent work ethic and is a strong student." While fans will spend the season keeping track of Hooper in the Husker record books, Hooper hopes to be leading a group of four returning Nebraska starters and eight returning letterwinners back to the NCAA Tournament for the third consecutive season. Hooper headlines one of the most experienced front lines in college basketball this season. Not only has she started 98 consecutive games at forward, but she has started the last 67 of those games alongside juniors Emily Cady and Hailie Sample. Cady, a 6-2 forward from Seward, Neb., is a two-time honorable-mention All-Big Ten choice. She has averaged 9.5 points and 7.2 rebounds per game through her first two seasons in the Husker lineup. "Emily Cady is a winner. She is an extremely athletic and versatile player," Yori said. "Emily has all-around skills and has shown both a great instinct for the game and overall basketball knowledge beyond her years." Sample, a 6-1 forward from Flower Mound, Texas, is one of the best wing defenders in the Big Ten, and has continued to expand her offensive game. "Hailie is a big guard who is very versatile and a smart basketball player at both ends," Yori said. "She is a tough, smart and aggressive defensive player who is a perfect fit for our defensive system. She can also score on the block and create opportunities for herself and teammates off the dribble." The trio has combined for 232 career starts and have powered the Huskers to back-to-back NCAA tournaments. With those three in the lineup, Nebraska has rolled to two of the best three seasons in school history, averaging 24.5 wins and advancing to the 2013 NCAA Sweet 16. Nebraska's fourth returning starter comes in the form of 6-0 point guard Rachel Theriot. The sophomore from Middleburg Heights, Ohio, earned Big Ten All-Freshman

honors a year ago after starting 28 of NU's 34 games. She averaged 6.2 points, 2.8 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game despite playing through the pain of an injured foot the entire season. Theriot supported honorable-mention All-America point guard Lindsey Moore in the backcourt in 2012-13. Moore, who was a first-round WNBA draft pick of the Minnesota Lynx, averaged 15.1 points, 3.6 rebounds and 5.7 assists per game a year ago. While Moore's production and leadership will be missed, Theriot could be counted on for more production of her own as a sophomore. Theriot underwent foot surgery soon after the end of the 2013 NCAA Tournament, and has progressed well in the offseason. A healthy Theriot could give Husker fans a healthy dose of the passing and play-making ability they only experienced a small taste of in 2012-13. "We're hoping Rachel will be able to play healthy this season," Yori said. "We never really got to see her even close to full strength last year. She could barely run and she was still a member of the Big Ten All-Freshman team. That will say something about her talent, and what we think she can do." In addition to Nebraska's nucleus of four returning starters, they also bring a solid and experienced group of players in supporting roles. Juniors Brandi Jeffery and Tear'a Laudermill will contend for starting jobs alongside Theriot in the NU backcourt. Jeffery, a 5-7 guard from Vacherie, La., made six starts early in the 2012-13 campaign, before battling injury and adversity. Jeffery after 3.5 points and 1.9 rebounds per game as

a sophomore. The 2011 Parade High School All-American and Louisiana Player of the Year has appeared in 63 contests for the Huskers in her first two seasons, and expects to be a significant contributor again. Laudermill, a 5-9 guard from Riverside, Calif., was Nebraska's most improved player in 2012-13. The ultraquick Laudermill was NU's top reserve both offensively and defensively as a sophomore, averaging 5.9 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.0 steal per game. Laudermill has appeared in 61 career games and could provide Nebraska with a menacing presence at the "hound" position in full-court defense, especially with the addition of the 10-second backcourt violation this season in women's college basketball. Fourth-year junior Katie Simon adds more experience and depth to NU's already talented front line. The 6-2 forward from Roseville, Calif., averaged 2.0 points and 1.2 rebounds while making 29 appearances in 2012-13. Simon has played in 56 career games and has been a remarkably effective producer in her two seasons on the court at Nebraska. Simon owns 127 points and 69 rebounds in 382 minutes for per-40-minute averages of 13.3 points and 7.2 rebounds per game. She also has hit nearly 50 percent of her field goals and nearly 70 percent of her free throw attempts during her career. Those three juniors are bolstered by the return of sophomore Sadie Murren. The 5-8 shooting guard from Colon, Neb., battled injury to play in 18 games as a true freshman. She averaged 1.5 points per game, but Husker fans only got a glimpse of her shooting abilities. Murren has had an excellent offseason and is poised to make greater contributions for the Huskers in 2013-14.

Big Red Ready for Season One at Pinnacle Bank Arena While Nebraska's eight returning players from its 2013 NCAA Sweet 16 squad will provide Coach Connie Yori and Husker fans with a sense of some good old-fashioned reliability, a shiny new downtown arena and three talented newcomers will provide a glimpse to future of the program. The Pinnacle Bank Arena has already changed the face of downtown Lincoln, even before the Huskers have played a game in the sparkling silver arena. The $179 million venue will seat more than 15,000 for basketball and will be the permanent home of both the Nebraska men's and women's basketball teams. The 470,400-square foot arena space includes 36 suites, 20 loge boxes and 832 club seats, while still providing courtside seats. The new Railyard entertainment district is growing at a staggering rate within the old Haymarket, providing many new entertainment options. The arena itself will provide nationally acclaimed concerts and shows throughout the year, giving the city of Lincoln a whole new feel. Hotels and parking areas have sprung up around the arena, giving Nebraska all the resources it needs to be a serious contender to host NCAA Tournament action right now and in the near future. The arena and the success of the Huskers on the court also has ignited season ticket sales for Nebraska women's basketball. As of Sept. 15, sales of Husker season tickets were up nearly 50 percent, crossing 3,000 with six weeks left before first tip. The exciting new arena will share its first year in Husker history with freshmen Allie Havers, Hannah Tvrdy and Esther Ramacieri. Havers, a 6-5 center from Paw Paw, Mich., is one of the tallest players in Husker history. A talented mult-sport athlete who was a Michigan state player of the year finalist in basketball, volleyball and softball, Havers will try to work her way into NU's experienced front court. Ranked as the No. 78 player in the nation as a senior in high school, Havers averaged 19.3 points and 11.4 rebounds per game and was a two-time Kalamazoo Area Player of the Year. "We like versatile and athletic players in our program and Allie Havers fits that mold perfectly," Yori said. "She can do multiple things for our basketball team with her ability to run the floor, score in the paint or face up away from the basket. She will be one of the more athletic players on our roster. Her upside is tremendous, and with our strength and conditioning program and the opportunity to focus on just one sport, we think she will thrive at Nebraska. Her future is very bright here." While Havers could help the frontcourt, Hannah Tvrdy and Esther Ramacieri hope to bolster the backcourt. Tvrdy, a 5-9 guard from Nebraska high school power Seward, won three straight titles and more than 100 consecutive games during her prep career, playing for her father, Tom. Her mother, Shelly (Block), was a two-year starter at Nebraska in the mid-1980s, and the pair become the first motherdaughter combination in Husker basketball history. Tvrdy was ranked as the No. 28 point guard in the nation coming out of high school and was a two-time Class B all-state selection for the Bluejays. As a senior, she averaged 15.6 points and better than four rebounds and four assists per game. "Hannah is an unselfish guard with size. She can rebound and shoot and she has that 'Nebraska' blue-collar work ethic and toughness that we like," Yori said. "She has been well-coached and is accustomed to competing for and winning championships. She is former teammates with some of our current Huskers, and that will help ease her transition to the Division I level." Ramacieri, a 5-7 guard out of Repentigny, Quebec, Canada, could earn time as a defensive specialist for the Huskers. Ramacieri likes to play in an open-court style and is a solid on-the-ball defender, which could translate to early playing time on NU's 11-player roster. "On offense we like to play fast and Esther is an up-
tempo type of guard," Yori said. "Esther is a good on-ball home stretch since Yori's first season at NU in 2002-03, and defender and excels at pushing the ball in transition, includes games against four straight postseason squads which makes her a great fit for our system. She is athletic, starting with 2013 WBI competitor Utah State on Dec. competitive, an excellent ball-handler, and a hard worker. 8.

NEBRASKA
Nebraska women's basketball has established itself as one of the nation's emerging programs under Coach Connie Yori. The Huskers have made nine postseason tournament appearances since 2004, including NCAA Sweet 16 trips in 2010 and 2013. Nebraska has averaged nearly 21 wins per season since 2003-04. The Huskers competed as a member of the Big Ten Conference for the first time in 2011-12. Nebraska played for the Big Ten Tournament title in 2012, before playing for a share of the conference regular-season title in its final home game in the history of the Bob Devaney Sports Center in 2013. The Huskers, who moved into the technologically advanced Hendricks Training Complex in the fall of 2011, continue to build excitement with their facilities by adding the Pinnacle Bank Arena as their new home court in 2013-14. The Huskers have annually ranked among the top 20 teams nationally in attendance, and season ticket sales are up 50 percent heading into 2013-14. In the last four seasons, Nebraska has made two trips to the NCAA Sweet 16, posted the three highest season victory totals in school history and had three players drafted by the WNBA, including first-round picks Kelsey Griffin and Lindsey Moore. Over the last four years, the Huskers have averaged nearly 24 wins per season and have had players earn 14 all-conference awards. Coach Connie Yori has been named the conference coach of the year in both the Big Ten (2013) and Big 12 (2010) while claiming every major national coach-of-the-year honor in 2010.
“Our players have driven the rise of our program. Nebraskans like a team that plays with great heart and great character. We've got really good character women in our program right now. I feel like character really counts.� Connie Yori Nebraska Head Coach THIS IS NEBRASKA | 2013 NCAA SWEET 16

BASKETBALL
Nebraska's rise to prominence in women's basketball has been built on the foundation of hard-working players who have put their talents together to form tremendous team chemistry. Chelsea Aubry, the captain of the 2012 Canadian Olympic Team, laid the groundwork as Coach Yori's first recruit to NU. Aubry, who enters her seventh season as a professional in 2013-14, was followed by Danielle Page, who enters her sixth season as one of the top professional players in France in 2013-14. Kelsey Griffin came next, setting the standard for future Huskers. The 6-2 forward was a first-team AllAmerican and National Player-of-the-Year finalist in 2010. The three-time first-team all-conference pick powered Nebraska's run to a perfect regular season, a Big 12 title and a No. 1 seed in the 2010 NCAA Tournament. Nebraska's first Senior CLASS Award winner was also NU's Female Student-Athlete of the Year. She went on to be the No. 3 pick in the 2010 WNBA Draft and earned WNBA All-Rookie honors. Nebraska's 2010 NCAA Sweet 16 team included seniors Cory Montgomery and Yvonne Turner, who both went on to successful pro careers. The youngster on the 2010 team, point guard Lindsey Moore, added to the Husker legacy by leading the program to the 2013 NCAA Sweet 16 before claiming a first-round pick in the WNBA Draft. In 2013-14, two-time All-American and National Player-of-the-Year candidate Jordan Hooper hopes to continue growing Nebraska's winning tradition.

The success of Nebraska student-athletes reaches far beyond athletic competition. More Husker student-athletes have been selected to CoSIDA Academic All-America teams (307) than any other school in the nation, and Nebraska has produced more NCAA Top Ten Award winners (16) than any other school. As it enters its third season of Big Ten Conference competition in 2013-14, Nebraska continues to set the standard for the approximately 1,400 NCAA member institutions. The Husker football team leads all individual sport programs in the nation with 104 all-time CoSIDA Academic All-America awards. The Notre Dame football program ranks second among all sports nationally with 58 all-time academic All-Americans. In fact, Nebraska’s 104 football academic All-Americans would rank among the top 25 schools (all sports, all divisions) in the nation in the number of total CoSIDA Academic AllAmericans. The NU volleyball program has captured more academic All-America awards (37) than any other women’s team in the nation, while the Husker softball program ranks second on that list with 29 selections. Nebraska also ranks among the top 10 schools in the nation in CoSIDA Academic All-Americans in baseball, women’s basketball and men’s and women’s track and field/cross country. Over the past two years, the men’s and women’s track and field programs have produced 10 CoSIDA Academic AllAmericans - the most in the nation during that span.

The Huskers added eight CoSIDA Academic AllAmericans to their nation-leading total (307) to become the first school in history to reach 300 academic All-Americans. Nebraska’s eight academic All-Americans led the Big Ten Conference and ranked among the highest totals in the nation across all divisions. NU maintained its lead of 76 alltime CoSIDA Academic All-Americans All Sports as of August 2013 over No. 2 Notre Dame. Since 2000, Nebraska has amassed a nation-leading 117 CoSIDA Academic All-Americans, which would rank in a tie for 13th over the more than 60 years of the academic All-America program. Nebraska has produced at least one academic AllAmerican in 42 consecutive seasons. Senior I-back Rex Burkhead captured first-team academic All-America honors for the second straight season, while senior linebacker Sean Fisher earned second-team honors for the second straight year. Fisher added a prestigious NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship. While Burkhead and Fisher became the 25th and 26th two-time academic All-Americans in the history of the Husker football program, senior track and field student-athlete Bjorn Barrefors became the first four-time CoSIDA Academic All-American in school history.

The Eichorst family (clockwise): Kristin, Shawn, Jack, Bennett and Joseph.
Shawn Eichorst was named the 14th Director of Athletics of the University of Nebraska by Chancellor Harvey Perlman on Oct. 4, 2012. Eichorst leads a tradition-rich athletic program of 24 varsity athletic teams, 600-plus studentathletes and more than 275 full-time employees. Eichorst succeeded legendary Nebraska football coach and Athletic Director Tom Osborne and officially assumed his duties on Jan. 3, 2013. “I am honored to have the opportunity to join the University of Nebraska family,” Eichorst said. “Nebraska is an outstanding academic institution with one of the strongest athletic departments in all of college sports. Most importantly, everyone here is committed to keeping the welfare of our student-athletes at the heart of everything we do. I am humbled by the responsibility and opportunities that lie ahead and will work diligently to carry on the rich tradition of Husker excellence set forth by Coach Osborne and so many others.” Perlman said it was Eichorst’s commitment to putting student-athletes first that made Eichorst stand out. “When I asked him how I would be able to measure his success if he were here five years from now,” Perlman said, “his response was that if the coaches and studentathletes had been successful and nobody knows his name, it would be a success.” Although his preference is to serve and lead diligently from the background, Eichorst has already canvassed the state promoting Husker Athletics and Nebraska’s tremendously talented student-athletes making more than 70 appearances across Nebraska and visiting eight other states in just his first seven months. Eichorst emphasizes academics first and is proud to acknowledge Nebraska’s nation-leading 307 Academic All-Americans, including eight who earned the honor in 2012-13. In fact, he has invited all of the academic honor winners back to campus for a reunion in November. He has met with each college dean on campus and uses his monthly radio show and his Connecting on Campus column to promote campus, coach and student-athlete academic and community successes. More than 200 Husker student-athletes were honored at the academic recognition banquet this spring while 188 were named academic All-Big Ten in 2012-13. During Eichorst’s first semester at Nebraska in the spring of 2013, women’s bowling, coached by the legendary Bill Straub, won a national title and Rhonda Revelle’s softball team advanced to the Women’s College World Series. The women’s basketball team, coached by Connie Yori, completed a run to the NCAA Sweet 16 for the second time in program history and the women’s tennis team, coached by Scott Jacobson, made an appearance in the Sweet 16 for the first time in program history and earned a share of the Big Ten title. Tennis player Mary Weatherholt finished runner-up at the NCAA Singles Championship, the highestever finish for a Nebraska tennis player. In addition to women’s tennis, two other Nebraska teams added Big Ten titles in the spring of 2013, as the women’s gymnastics team, coached by Dan Kendig, won its second-straight Big Ten title and third-straight conference title overall. The men’s track and field team, coached by Gary Pepin, claimed the outdoor team title. In the summer of 2013, three facility projects were completed: Memorial Stadium, which expands to accommodate more than 90,000 football fans and will include the Nebraska Athletic Performance Laboratory (NAPL) and the Center for Brain, Biology and Behavior (CB3) research facilities; Pinnacle Bank Arena in downtown Lincoln, where the Husker men’s and women’s basketball teams will be permanent tenants; and the renovated Bob Devaney Sports Center, where volleyball, men’s and women’s gymnastics and the wrestling team will compete. Construction for each of these three facilities began with Osborne at the helm. Athletic Director Emeritus Osborne continues to provide Eichorst with counsel on a number of items including the East Stadium research initiatives. The collaborative research that will take place within an athletic facility shared by academics and athletics is believed to be the first of its kind and sets the tone for the leadership role Nebraska has taken in the Big Ten Conference and nationally. Eichorst came to Nebraska after spending 18 months as the Director of Athletics at the University of Miami. He
was named the 12th Director of Athletics at Miami on April 12, 2011 and served until Oct. 4, 2012 when he was hired by Nebraska as a Special Assistant to Chancellor Perlman. In his first year as Director of Athletics at Miami, Eichorst helped grow the academic reputation as well as the fan base. Under his watchful eye, the Hurricane Club grew by more than 500 members, surpassing 5,000 members nationwide. More than $19 million in student-athlete support was generated in 2011-12 and an additional $14.2 million in capital gifts was raised toward the new Center for Athletic Excellence facility, scheduled for completion in the fall of 2013. During his tenure, both the Hurricane men’s and women’s basketball programs advanced to the postseason, with the women posting the highest national ranking in school history at No. 5, advancing to the NCAA second round. The women’s tennis team advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals for the fourth straight season and the baseball program extended its NCAA postseason appearances streak to 40 consecutive seasons. The women’s soccer team posted the first NCAA postseason win in program history, while the volleyball team advanced to the NCAA postseason for the third straight year and finished the season ranked 15th in the nation. Before his appointment at Miami, Eichorst served from 2009 to 2011 as the Deputy Athletics Director at the University of Wisconsin, where his responsibilities under Director of Athletics Barry Alvarez included serving as the department’s Chief Operating Officer and overseeing the day-to-day operations of the highly successful athletics program. At Wisconsin, Eichorst was involved in the design and planning of a new ice hockey and swimming facility completed in the fall of 2012, as well as with the StudentAthlete Performance Center in the north end zone of Camp Randall Stadium. He joined the Badgers’ staff in 2006 as a Senior Associate Athletics Director and was promoted to Executive Associate Athletics Director in 2007. Eichorst has experience with three BCS conference institutions previously serving as University of South Carolina’s Senior Associate Athletics Director for Administration from 2004 to 2006. With the Gamecocks, Eichorst oversaw daily operations of the department and supervised the football and baseball programs. The football team was bowl-eligible each year during Eichorst’s tenure, and the baseball program competed in the 2004 College World Series. Additionally, he coordinated and supervised multi-million dollar facility projects, including a state-ofthe-art football training facility. Eichorst served as the Director of Athletics at his alma mater, University of Wisconsin-Whitewater until 2003. Under his tenure, UW-Whitewater developed into one of the nation’s top Division III athletic programs, with four top 10 percent National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) Directors Cup finishes; one NCAA team championship; two NCAA team runner-up finishes and five individual national champions. The program also featured 38 Academic All-America selections, seven NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship winners and 74 All-Americans. A native of Lone Rock, Wis., Eichorst was an all-conference defensive back, a three-time letterwinner and 1990 team captain for the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater football team. He graduated magna cum laude in business from UW-Whitewater in 1990 and earned a law degree from Marquette University in 1995. He practiced law in Milwaukee before accepting the position at WisconsinWhitewater. He is a past member of the NCAA Division I StudentAthlete Reinstatement Committee and State Bar of Wisconsin Board of Governors. He also previously served as an assistant adjunct professor of law at Marquette University Law School, where he taught classes in sports law. He currently serves on the Marquette University National Sports Law Institute Board of Advisors. In 2006, he was awarded the Sports Law Alumnus of the Year by Marquette. He also is a graduate of the Sports Management Institute and serves on its Executive Committee. Eichorst and his wife Kristin have three sons: Jack, Joseph and Bennett.

BOEHM
Bethany College l 1982
Kansas State l 1984 • Executive Associate Athletic Director (10th Year)
A member of the Nebraska Athletics senior administration since May 2003, Marc Boehm (pronounced BAME) serves as executive associate athletic director and is the top assistant to the athletic director. Boehm fulfills the director's responsibilities in his absence and also serves as the department's chief operating officer. Boehm oversees the efforts of several areas within athletics, including marketing, media relations, HuskerVision, facilities and events. Boehm also oversees the Nebraska men's and women's basketball programs and the Husker soccer program. He also played a major role in the athletic department's negotiations for its contract extension with IMG College Sports. To date, it is the largest multi-media rights contract in college athletics. As the primary administrator for the NU basketball programs, Boehm played an integral role in the hiring of Tim Miles as the Huskers' new coach in March of 2012. He has also played a lead role during the men's and women's basketball programs move into Pinnacle Bank Arena in 2013-14. He also worked to help develop Nebraska's new practice facility - the Hendricks Training Complex - which opened in October of 2011. Boehm has worked to create a fan-friendly atmosphere at men's and women's basketball, leading the Husker men's program to shatter season ticket sales records for both programs as they move into the new arena. In fact, the men sold out season tickets for 2013-14 in early May, shattering the previous record for season tickets sold by well over 2,500. Under Boehm's supervision, Coach Connie Yori's women's basketball program has enjoyed the most success in school history over the past five years. The Husker women have advanced to a pair of NCAA Sweet 16 appearances in 2009-10 and 2012-13, while producing the three highest single-season win totals in NU history over the past four years. Yori's 2012-13 Huskers made their second NCAA Sweet 16 trip in the past four years, while finishing the Big Ten regular-season runner-up. Yori was named the Big Ten Coach of the Year, while NU's 25 victories were the second-most in school history, trailing only the 2009-10 Huskers' 32-2 campaign that included a perfect 16-0 Big 12 campaign. In 2009-10, Yori captured 2010 National Coach-of-the-Year honors by leading the Huskers to a Big 12 record-tying 30-game winning streak and the 2010 Big 12 regularseason title. NU ranked in the top 10 in the final national polls and seventh nationally in home attendance with 7,390 fans per game. In conference play, NU led the league with 11,383 fans per game. The Husker women have earned three NCAA Tournament trips in the past four years and have played for three conference titles during that span. The men have added four postseason trips during Boehm's tenure, including a trip to the 2011 Postseason NIT. Boehm, who played a significant role in aiding Nebraska's functional transition to the Big Ten Conference in 2011-12, was also instrumental in conceptualizing and developing the Husker Nation Pavilion, which is the premier pregame event around home football games. Boehm also took the lead role in obtaining First National Bank and Ameritas as premier sponsors for the Nebraska Athletic Department for a combined deal worth more than $7 million over a three-year period. First National Bank and Ameritas joined Verizon, Pepsi and adidas as premier corporate sponsors for Husker athletics. Boehm held the same position at Pittsburgh from 1997 to 2003. Boehm assisted in the rise of the Panthers' basketball program with the men's team posting back-to-back Sweet 16 appearances in the NCAA Tournament. During construction of the Panthers' new athletic facilities, Boehm played a central role in Pitt's athletic teams moving to the UPMC Sports Performance Complex, Heinz Field and the Petersen Events Center. Boehm served as interim athletic director at Pittsburgh for nearly five months before coming to Nebraska. During that time, he hired men's basketball head coach Jamie Dixon. Boehm also spent five years as associate executive director of the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. He directed and managed a 125-member fund-raising committee of Arizona business people responsible for generating more than $4.5 million in cash and in-kind partnerships. Previously he spent four years as associate executive director and public relations director of the Sun Bowl from 1987 to 1991. Born in Grand Island, Boehm earned his bachelor's degree in communications from Kansas State in 1984 and added a master's degree in sports management from St. Thomas (Fla.) University in 1985. Boehm and his wife, the former Janelle Broderick of Minot, N.D., have three boys, Broderick, Christian and Lukas John.

– Nebraska Coach Connie Yori
Coach Connie Yori continues to lead the Nebraska women's basketball program in an exciting phase of sustained growth, as she enters her 12th year in Lincoln in 2013-14. The 2013 Big Ten Coach of the Year, Yori led the Huskers to another one of the best seasons in school history in 2012-13, culminating with the program's second trip to the NCAA Sweet 16 in the past four years. A Nebraska roster that featured just two seniors rolled to the second-most wins in school history (25), while notching the secondhighest conference victory total (12) in the Husker record books. From mid-January through the end of February, Yori's Huskers reeled off 10 consecutive Big Ten wins on their way to a conference regular-season runner-up finish (12-4). The Huskers claimed their second straight NCAA Tournament bid and fifth in the past seven seasons. They opened tournament play as a No. 6 seed with a 73-59 win over Southern Conference champion Chattanooga. Nebraska snapped the Lady Mocs' 19-game winning streak, while advancing to the second round to face No. 3 seed and SEC Tournament champion Texas A&M. The ninth-ranked Aggies, who won the 2011 NCAA title, held a decided homecourt advantage at Reed Arena in College Station, Texas, but the Huskers never flinched. No. 24 Nebraska sprinted to a 74-63 victory over the Aggies to punch its ticket to the NCAA Norfolk (Va.) Regional semifinals. Nebraska fought hard against the second-seeded and No. 5 nationally ranked Duke, but were unable to muster enough offense against the ACC champion Blue Devils. Duke advanced to the Elite Eight with a 53-45 win before finishing with a 33-3 record on the season with a loss to Final Four-bound Notre Dame. Nebraska's late-season surge pushed the Huskers to their third USA Today/Coaches Top 25 final national ranking in the past four years. NU also finished in the final top 25 in the Associated Press Poll (24th) for the third time, despite those rankings covering only the regular season. Before Yori's arrival at Nebraska, no Husker team had ever ended a season ranked in the AP or USA Today/Coaches Top 25. Nebraska's 25-9 overall record came against one of the nation's toughest schedules and one of the strongest in school history. The Huskers entered the NCAA Tournament at No. 16 in the official NCAA RPI rankings and carried the No. 12 Strength of Schedule in the country, according to RealTimeRPI.com. The Big Ten owned the nation's No. 2 conference RPI in 2012-13, and all six Big Ten teams that advanced to the NCAA Tournament won first-round games. Nebraska fans continued to come out in droves to support their beloved Huskers in 2012-13. NU's averaged home attendance of 5,243 fans ranked among the top 20 teams in the country, and included a Big Ten home average attendance 6,586 fans per game. The Husker faithful celebrated the end of an era on March 3, as 10,832 fans said farewell to the Bob Devaney Sports Center - the home of Nebraska women's basketball since 1976. Yori and the Huskers will move their rising program into the new Pinnacle Bank Arena in downtown Lincoln beginning in 2013-14. The nearly $180 million arena will become the exclusive homes of Husker men's and women's basketball, giving Nebraska one of the nation's best atmospheres for college basketball. Seniors Lindsey Moore and Meghin Williams became the final Huskers to play their entire careers at the Devaney Center. The duo capped the most successful four-year run in school history by averaging 23.5 victories per season in their careers. Before their arrivals, no Nebraska team had ever won more than 23 games in a season. Moore closed one of the most successful careers in school history by making her second NCAA Sweet 16 appearance. The 5-9 point guard from Covington, Wash., started a school-record 132 games while playing a school-record 4,360 minutes. She started seven NCAA Tournament games in her career, while winning more games (94) than any other player in school history. Moore, who set the Nebraska all-time assist record (699) while finishing 11th in scoring with 1,673 points, also won more games (53) than any other player in the history of the Devaney Center. Moore joined junior star Jordan Hooper in capturing Associated Press All-America honors at the conclusion of the 2012-13 campaign. For Hooper, who could challenge Nebraska records for both scoring and rebounding as a senior in 2013-14, it marked her second straight AP All-America honor. Moore, who was a two-time finalist for the Nancy Lieberman Award presented to the nation's top point guard, joined Hooper as a candidate for the Wade, Naismith and Wooden national player-ofthe-year awards in 2012-13. Moore and Hooper became the first Husker teammates to appear on the watch lists for those prestigious awards at the same time, while becoming the first NU duo to claim All-America awards in the same season. Hooper also earned first-team All-Big Ten honors for the second straight year, while Moore was named to the Big Ten All-Tournament team for the second consecutive season. Hooper and Moore, a secondteam All-Big Ten choice for the second time, were joined on the All-Big Ten team by sophomore Emily Cady. The 6-2 forward earned honorable mention from the league writers for the second time. Rachel Theriot continued the Huskers' hardware haul by being named to the Big Ten All-Freshman Team.
COACHES | FIVE NCAA TOURNAMENT BIDS SINCE 2007
National and conference honors for Huskers have become the norm under Coach Yori. In fact, over the past nine seasons, Hooper (2), Moore and Kelsey Griffin have claimed four All-America awards for NU. Griffin was a unanimous first-team All-American in 2009-10 when she was a finalist for the Wade, Naismith and Wooden national player-of-the-year awards. Griffin was also Nebraska's first Senior CLASS Award winner. At the league level, Yori's Huskers have captured 12 first- or secondteam all-conference awards while five more NU rookies have claimed spots on the conference all-freshman team. Yori's success in recruiting talented players from all parts of the country are on display in NU's all-freshman selections. In fact, Nebraska's starting five in 2012-13 featured four players who earned spots on either the Big Ten or Big 12 All-Freshman squads (Moore, Big 12, 2010; Hooper, Big 12, 2011; Cady, Big Ten, 2012; Rachel Theriot, Big Ten, 2013). NU's fifth all-freshman selection over the past nine years was Griffin (Big 12, 2006), who went on to become a firstround pick in the 2010 WNBA Draft. "We believe that the success level of our team has improved because we have focused on bringing in the highest quality of student-athlete," Yori said. "Obviously, we want talented basketball players with great skill levels and knowledge of the game, but we also want great students who want to become great people after their careers are over." Nebraska's 2012-13 success followed on the heels of a breakthrough year for an extraordinarily young Husker squad in 2011-12. In their first season in the Big Ten, Yori's Huskers battled their way to a 24-9 overall record and a 10-6 Big Ten mark. They also fought their way to the Big Ten Tournament title game in their first-ever appearance in the tournament. NU carried that momentum to a No. 6 seed in the 2012 NCAA Tournament. Injuries to Hooper, Hailie Sample and Cady late in the season stalled a potential tournament run, but the Huskers still finished No. 17 in the final AP rankings. The 2011-12 Huskers matched the school record by staying in the AP Top 25 for the final 14 weeks of the season. Cady and Sample made history in 2011-12, becoming the first freshman duo in school history to start every game for Nebraska. In fact, with Cady and Sample leading the way, Nebraska's freshmen played the most minutes of any freshman class in the Big Ten, and they were also by far the most productive. Nebraska also excelled in the classroom, with six Huskers earning academic All-Big Ten honors in 2012. Off the court, senior guard Kaitlyn Burke won Nebraska's Big Ten Sportsmanship Award across all female sports and was the President of the Nebraska Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. Yori guided the Nebraska program to its best season in school history in 2009-10, leading the Huskers to their first-ever Big 12 Conference regular-season title. Along the way, NU tied the Big 12 record with a 30-game winning streak and became the first team in league history to post an unbeaten regular season (29-0). The Huskers also became just the second team in conference history to go a perfect 16-0 in regular-season league play. Yori engineered Nebraska's rise to its highest national ranking in school history, climbing as high as No. 3 in the national polls. Prior to 2009-10, Nebraska had never been in the top 10, but spent nine straight weeks in the top 10 to end the season, after beginning the year unranked. Yori's Huskers captured the school's first No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament and advanced to the program's first NCAA Sweet 16, before finishing No. 4 in the final official NCAA RPI. NU also finished No. 4 in the final AP Poll and No. 7 in the USA Today/ESPN Coaches Top 25. Yori, who earned national coach-of-the-year honors from the WBCA, AP, USBWA, the Naismith Trophy and the inaugural Kay Yow Award, led the Huskers to the biggest single-season turnaround in the nation in 2009-10. Nebraska improved 17 games in the win column after advancing to the postseason in 2008-09. The Huskers, who were the preseason pick to finish sixth in the Big 12 by league coaches, went undefeated in the nation's No. 1 RPI conference and Yori captured Big 12 Coach-of-the-Year honors. Bolstered by the return of first-team All-American and 2010 Big 12 Player-of-the-Year Kelsey Griffin, the Huskers dominated the opposition in 2009-10. In addition Griffin, who claimed first-team All-Big 12 accolades for the third time, Cory Montgomery and Yvonne Turner earned first-team All-Big 12 awards. Turner was also named the Big 12 Co-Defensive Player of the Year, while Griffin joined Turner on the All-Big 12 Defensive Team. Dominique Kelley added honorable-mention All-Big 12 accolades. Moore was also named to the Big 12's AllFreshman Team after leading NU to 32 wins as a starting point guard. Griffin, who finished her career with 2,033 points and 1,019 rebounds, was chosen by the Minnesota Lynx with the No. 3 overall pick in the WNBA Draft before being traded to the Connecticut Sun. Little more than one hour later, Montgomery was selected by the New York Liberty with the No. 25 overall pick in the draft. Griffin has continued her WNBA career into the 2013 season, while also spending professional seasons in Hungary, Israel and most recently Australia. She was joined in Australia in 2013 by Montgomery, while Turner also has played overseas in Russia in 2012-13 before signing

a traing camp contract with the San Antonio Silver Stars before the 2013 WNBA season. In addition to Nebraska's incredible rise to prominence on the national scene in 2009-10, the Huskers became a marquee attraction across the Midwest. Nebraska led the Big 12 by averaging 11,383 fans over eight league home games, while shattering the school attendance records. Nebraska ranked seventh nationally with an average home attendance of 7,390 fans per game, while drawing a school-record seven consecutive crowds of more than 10,000 to close the season. That streak included the school's first-ever capacity crowd of 13,595 at the Devaney Center for Nebraska's win over Missouri on Feb. 27, which included a Big 12 regular-season title presentation and the cutting down of the nets at the Devaney Center for the first time since 1988. Although Nebraska's meteoric rise on the national landscape seemed like an overnight success story with national headlines in USA Today, The New York Times and even Sports Illustrated, along with unprecedented exposure from ESPN, the Huskers' climb was anything but a quick fix. Instead, Yori spent eight years building Nebraska brickby-brick with painstaking detail into a force to be reckoned with on the national levels. Yori's success at Nebraska has come as a result of her commitment to helping student-athletes have outstanding all-around collegiate experiences on the court, in the classroom and in the community. Yori's approach involves helping create an atmosphere of terrific team chemistry with players and coaches who genuinely care about each other. When Yori first arrived at Nebraska in the summer of 2002, the Huskers were coming off back-to-back losing seasons. Left with just a handful of healthy, scholarship players, Nebraska struggled to an 8-20 overall mark and a 1-15 Big 12 record. Through steady recruiting and a commitment to helping her student-athletes improve on and off the court, the Huskers have found a recipe for success. Even before its breakthrough 2009-10 campaign, the Huskers had earned six consecutive postseason tournament appearances, including back-to-back trips to the NCAA Tournament in 2007 and 2008. NU's 2008 NCAA appearance included the school's third-ever NCAA Tournament victory with a first-round win over Xavier, before taking No. 1 national seed Maryland to the limit on the Terrapins' home court in the second round. In 2008-09, Nebraska battled its way to a Postseason WNIT bid despite losing Griffin to an ankle injury before the season began. The Huskers were dealt a further blow inside with the loss of center Nikki Bober, just days after helping the Huskers to a win over No. 24 Arizona State at the Devaney Center on Dec. 28. The Sun Devils went on to advance to the 2009 NCAA Elite Eight. Despite the early setbacks, Yori helped the Huskers adjust to new roles while developing new young leaders on the court. Her guidance helped Nebraska become one of the hottest teams down the stretch in Big 12 play, going 5-2 in its last seven regular-season Big 12 games. NU finished as one of just five league schools to close the second half of conference play with a winning record. NU joined NCAA Final Four qualifier Oklahoma, NCAA Elite Eight participant Iowa State, NCAA

Sweet 16 qualifier Texas A&M and Big 12 Tournament champion Baylor as the five schools to notch winning records in the league over the last eight regularseason games. The Huskers, who finished the year with a 15-16 overall record and a 6-10 Big 12 mark, tied for seventh in the nation's strongest conference. The Big 12 sent six teams to the NCAA Tournament and three more to the WNIT. Amazingly, Nebraska's seventhplace regular-season league finish was one spot higher in the standings than NU's projected finish by the conference coaches before the season, when those coaches thought Griffin would play. Nebraska's season was not only highlighted by top-25 victories over Arizona State and Kansas State, the Huskers also played one of the nation's toughest schedules. The Huskers played 19 games against 2009 postseason tournament qualifiers, including Big Ten champion and NCAA Sweet 16 participant Ohio State, along with non-conference road games at LSU and New Mexico. Nebraska's success came despite featuring the most inexperienced starting lineup in the Big 12. The conference was one of the most veteran leagues in 2008-09 with 24 senior starters, including 14 four-year Nebraska Coach Connie Yori with her husband, Kirk Helms, and their son, Lukas. starters.

two home games in the tournament. NU's 73-60 first-round win over Drake was its first postseason victory since 1998 and the first home postseason win since 1993. Along with amazing improvement on the court, the Huskers made major strides in the classroom and community. The Huskers made history in 2003-04 by becoming the athletic department's first winner of the Life Skills Award of Excellence. The award was presented to the team that showed the greatest overall commitment to Nebraska's community outreach program, an impressive accomplishment considering Nebraska's overall Life Skills program has been named the best in the nation. Although NU had to replace four senior starters in 2003-04, the 2004-05 squad continued the program's climb. Nebraska grabbed national headlines and made school history on Jan. 12, 2005, by knocking off then-No. 2 Baylor, 103-99 in triple overtime at the Devaney Center. Not only did the Huskers outlast the eventual national champion Bears in the longest game in Big 12 history, they also posted a win over the highest-ranked team in school history. The Huskers finished with an 8-8 Big 12 record for the first time since 1999-2000 and claimed a sixth-place finish in one of the nation's toughest leagues. NU's sixth-place showing was its first top-six league finish since 1999-2000, and helped the Huskers advance to the postseason for the second straight year with a trip to the 2005 Postseason WNIT. Nebraska finished 2004-05 with an 18-14 record despite playing 11 games against top 25 foes. Along with the win over No. 2 Baylor, NU defeated No. 14 Iowa State 88-59 on Feb. 12 in Lincoln, to give NU its largest victory margin in history over a top-25 opponent. Yori's 2004-05 squad was composed of seven newcomers on a 12-player roster. The newcomers were guided by senior point guard Jina Johansen and were sparked by the emergence of Kiera Hardy, who became the third sophomore in school history to earn first-team all-conference honors. She also became just the third Husker since the inception of the Big 12 in 1996-97 to claim first-team All-Big 12 accolades. Hardy's rise along with the addition of 2005 Big 12 Newcomer of the Year Jelena Spiric and the leadership of Chelsea Aubry gave NU high hopes for 2005-06. Those hopes were tempered the first week of fall practice by the loss of Spiric to a season-ending knee injury. Despite the setback, NU ran to a 19-13 overall record, including an 8-8 Big 12 mark, while advancing to the Postseason WNIT for the third straight year. The Huskers closed the season as one of the Big 12's hottest teams, winning seven of their last 10 games including a trip to the WNIT quarterfinals, despite a late-season illness to freshman phenom Kelsey Griffin. NU's strong finish came while establishing a measure of dominance against Big 12 North competition. Nebraska went 5-0 in rematches with North Division opponents in 2005-06, and finished the year with a 7-3 mark against North schools, before adding a victory against Colorado in the first round of the Big 12 Tournament.
The Huskers defeated Colorado three times in the same season for the first time in school history after recording their first regularseason sweep of the Buffaloes in 21 years. NU also ended a 20-year losing streak at Boulder. Nebraska's rise to the upper echelon in the Big 12 continued in 2006-07. The Huskers finished with a 22-10 overall record that included a 10-6 league mark. NU earned a first-round bye in the Big 12 Tournament by finishing in a tie for fourth in the league standings. Hardy led the Huskers in 2006-07 by capturing her third straight first-team All-Big 12 award before being selected in the third round of the WNBA Draft by the Connecticut Sun. A WBCA Region 5 AllAmerican, Hardy became the second Husker in history to be drafted by the WNBA. She also earned her bachelor's degree from Nebraska the day before hitting the game-winning shot in her professional exhibition debut. Griffin joined Hardy in capturing first-team All-Big 12 honors in 2006-07, becoming the fourth Husker to earn first-team all-league honors as a sophomore. Griffin was a first-team academic All-Big 12 pick and a member of the Big 12 Winter Good Works Team. Aubry, a captain and member of the Canadian Senior National Team who eventually became Nebraska's first Olympian in 2012, added honorable-mention All-Big 12 recognition as a senior. She also earned academic All-Big 12 honors and served on Nebraska's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee with Griffin. Nebraska's success against North Division opponents continued in 2006-07, as the Huskers posted an 8-2 mark against North foes - the best record of any North team. Nebraska's rise has followed continued recruiting success. Yori's first group of recruits included Hardy and Aubry. Yori's second group included Danielle Page, who spent the 2008 WNBA season with the Connecticut Sun. Page enters her sixth professional season overseas in 2013-14. Yori's third class included Griffin, who became the second player in school history with more than 2,000 points and 1,000 career rebounds. Yori's fourth class was her largest and most accomplished, including WBCA All-American and Miss Nebraska Basketball Yvonne Turner, AllArizona guard Nicole Neals, All-Minnesota forward Cory Montgomery, Iowa Female Athlete of the Year Kala Kuhlmann and All-Nebraska center Nikki Bober. NU's fifth group included 2007 Miss Nebraska Basketball Dominique Kelley, who set a Husker record by starting all 33 games as a freshman in 2007-08, Canadian National Program member Kaitlyn Burke, California State Junior College Tournament MVP Tay Hester, French National Team member Jessica Periago, and Texas all-stater Catheryn Redmon. The Huskers' sixth class featured Canadian National program member Harleen Sidhu and Texan Layne Reeves, while NU's seventh class included ESPN Top 100 point guard and state of Washington Gatorade Player of the Year Lindsey Moore, along with California high school standout Meghin Williams.

12 All-Freshman Team after breaking Kelley's NU record by starting all 34 games in 2009-10. Nebraska's eighth recruiting class lived up to the lofty expectations created by the success of the Huskers' 2010 senior class. That group included two-time Nebraska Gatorade Player of the Year and WBCA honorable-mention All-American Jordan Hooper from Alliance, along with California standout Katie Simon and Kansas City center Adrianna Maurer. Yori's ninth class could end up rivaling the best in school history. Led by Nebraska prep star Emily Cady and Texas standout Hailie Sample, the four Husker newcomers in 2011-12 joined the redshirt Simon in making up the most productive class in Husker history. Parade All-American and 2011 Louisiana High School Player of the Year Brandi Jeffery and All-California guard Tear'a Laudermill made major impacts off the bench in 2011-12. Cady and Sample became just the eighth and ninth freshmen in school history to start every game, while playing major roles in pushing the Huskers back to the NCAA Tournament. NU's six freshmen in 2011-12 combined for nearly 900 points and 600 rebounds, almost doubling the production of any other class in school history. Yori's 10th class was led by All-Ohio guard Rachel Theriot and Nebraska all-stater Sadie Murren. Theriot, a 6-0 point guard, was ranked among the top 100 players in the nation, while Murren was rated among the country's top 250. Her 11th Husker class is led by All-Michigan forward Allie Havers. The 6-5 Havers was ranked as the No. 76 high school senior in the nation. She is joined by four-time Nebraska all-stater Hannah Tvrdy from prep powerhouse Seward. Tvrdy, who was a high school teammate of Cady and the daughter of former Husker Shelly (Block) Tvrdy, was ranked as the No. 28 point guard in the nation by ESPN. Canadian Esther Ramacieri rounded out a solid Husker class. Yori came to Nebraska after 10 successful years at Creighton, where she closed her career as the 2002 Missouri Valley Conference Coach of the Year after leading CU to MVC regular-season and tournament titles and a 2002 NCAA Tournament bid. Along with the MVC title and a trip to the 2002 NCAA Tournament, the Bluejays went 24-7 with a 16-2 MVC mark. CU also set school and league records with 249 three-pointers to rank fifth nationally with 8.0 per game. The Ankeny, Iowa, native produced a 170-115 (.596) mark in 10 seasons at Creighton. Overall, Yori spent 17 seasons at Creighton, including four as a guard (1982-83 through 1985-86) and three as an assistant coach (1986-87 through 1988-89) under Bruce Rasmussen.

CU earned a No. 10 seed in the Midwest Region and defeated No. 7-seed Bowling Green (84-73) before losing to defending national champion Texas Tech (75-65) in the second round. In her second season (1993-94), Yori's Bluejays raced to a 24-7 record and a 14-2 MVC mark. Her 2001-02 Creighton squad matched that mark, while setting a school record with 16 conference victories, and also advanced to the NCAA Tournament. Yori graduated from Creighton with a bachelor's degree in journalism in 1986, and earned a master's degree in sports administration from St. Thomas University in 1990. As a player for the Bluejays, Yori ranks third on the school's all-time scoring list with 2,010 points.

A Conversation with Coach Connie Yori
Q: What qualities do you look for in student-athletes that you recruit to Nebraska? CY: I've always believed that if you surround yourself with good people, then good things will happen. If you recruit quality student-athletes with good character, then things will fall into place. We want to be committed to recruiting student-athletes who have quality character and are good athletes. I believe the game is still a team game. You can have great individual players, but if they don't play together, then you are not going to be successful. We want players who understand team concepts and believe in those things. We want players who care about each other and respect one another. When you have that, then special things can happen. Q: What do you hope student-athletes will take from their years with the Nebraska program? CY: We want them to leave here a better person than they came. We want to recruit quality people, but as a coaching staff we also want to impact our student-athletes in a positive way. As coaches, we have a parenting role when our players are away from home. We want our kids to be able to go out into the world and be productive members of society after they graduate from college. We want them to be overall good people and make good decisions based on a good value system. It is our responsibility as coaches to help develop those things. We surround our student-athletes with people who have a good values and we want to help mold our players in a positive way. Q: What do you envision as the direction of the Nebraska women's basketball program? CY: We came a long way in our first 10 years at Nebraska, and started our second decade with a trip to the NCAA Sweet 16 last year. We are now in position to contend for conference titles and NCAA Tournament bids on an annual basis. In 2010, we won the Big 12 championship, earned a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament and made it to the Sweet 16. In 2012, were were the Big Ten Tournament runner-up in our first season in the conference, and last year we played for a share of the regular-season conference title on the final day of the season before going to the Sweet 16. The Big Ten is not only one of the nation's most stable and tradition-rich conferences in all sports, it is a great women's basketball conference. Overall, our primary focus is still recruiting quality student-athletes who our fans can be proud of. We want our student-athletes to be players our fans will enjoy watching. We also want our student-athletes to be here for the right reasons. We want to be a team that competes for conference championships on a regular basis. If you are competing for a Big Ten championship, then you are going to be a top-10 team competing for the national title. With the right players, those goals are possible at Nebraska. Q: How has the move to the Big Ten helped Nebraska? CY: Not only do the top teams in the league battle for national titles, but six or seven other teams are heading to the NCAA Tournament. Last year, the Big Ten went 6-0 in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. The conference is filled with great teams and great tradition, and it provides tremendous academic opportunities for student-athletes. The Big Ten has also committed itself to helping provide national exposure to its teams and athletes through the Big Ten Network. The past two years, the Big Ten Network has provided more national television coverage for women's basketball than any other
Connie Yori, the 2010 National Coach of the Year, enters her 12th season at Nebraska in 2013-14. Nebraska's career wins leader, Yori has guided NU to five NCAA tournaments in the last seven years, including a pair of NCAA Sweet 16 appearances since 2010.
conference in the country. The Big Ten Network reaches more than 80 million homes across the nation, and it certainly makes the world feel smaller to the parents of our players from outside the state of Nebraska. Q: How would you describe the style of play you would like to feature at Nebraska? CY: We are up-tempo on both ends of the court. Some programs are up-tempo offensively, but we can create offense with our defense. We play aggressively at both ends of the court and make it a 94-foot game. We were not able to do that in my first few years because of our depth, but then we began moving in that direction and in 2009-10 we achieved it. We were one of the top 10 offensive teams in the country in 2009-10, while also being a great defensive team. Our style allows us to feature more talented all-around players because we want to play with expanded rotations to keep our legs fresh. We want to create offense with defense. Being an up-tempo team requires the right personnel. We want players who not only know how to attack but also want to learn to be smarter, disciplined basketball players. Those are the kind of players who not only have success at the Division I level, but also at the professional level. It is an exciting style to play, and we want to run. Q: How would you rate the academic support provided to student-athletes at Nebraska? CY: I truly believe our academic support services are the best in the country. Other schools come here and try to duplicate our system and model their programs after ours. What's great about Nebraska's academic support is that it can help a good student become a great student, and an average student can become a good student. There is a total commitment by the people working in the academic area, as well as by our coaching staff. The two groups working hand-in-hand will help our players graduate and be ready to take the next step in their lives.
Q: What kind of support does the women's basketball program receive at the University of Nebraska? CY: We have one of the best athletic departments in the country. Our athletic staff has a great love of Nebraska, and they are committed to helping us in the right manner make our program successful. Executive Associate Athletic Director Marc Boehm was hired specifically to help our program. It even goes as high as our chancellor, Harvey Perlman, who has shown great support. There is no pressure to cut corners. We want to do things the right way. Our new practice facility, the Hendricks Training Complex, gives us a tremendous advantage with a new locker room, team room, weight room and athletic medicine facilities for our players. In 201314, we move into the new Pinnacle Bank Arena in downtown Lincoln, where are games will be a focal point of not just the campus, but of the entire city of Lincoln. The excitement around women's basketball at Nebraska is at an all-time high, which can be seen with our 50 percent increase in season ticket sales. Q: How impressive has Nebraska's fan support been in your first 11 seasons as NU's head coach? CY: I have been astounded by the support of Husker fans. Last year, we ranked in the top 20 nationally in attendance again with more than 5,000 fans per game. Since the end of last season, our ticket sales are up more than 50 percent, and there is a growing excitement for women's basketball across the state. In 2009-10 our program experienced all-time highs, ranking seventh nationally in attendance with nearly 7,500 fans per game. We also led the Big 12 by averaging nearly 11,500 fans per league game and our season ticket sales nearly doubled. That season, people got excited about an unbeaten team and a 30game winning streak. The most impressive thing about Husker fans is that even when you're not so good, they support you. In my first year, we only won eight games, and we still had 3,000 fans. I think that shows an amazing commitment level by our long-time fans.

Sunny Smallwood Nebraska Associate Head Coach Ninth Season Boise State (1983) Smallwood's Credentials
• Associate Head Coach, Nebraska (2008-Present) • Assistant Coach, Nebraska (2005-08) • Associate Head Coach, California (2004-05) • Assistant Coach, Washington (1993-2004) • Assistant Coach, Washington State (1990-93) • Head Coach, Boise High School (1983-90)
With Nebraska working alongside head coach Connie Yori the past four seasons, the Huskers have averaged 23.5 wins per year - the most successful four-year stretch in school history. One of the major factors on the court during that run was the play of four-year starting point guard Lindsey Moore. Smallwood played a lead role in signing the two-time Nancy Lieberman Award finalist and 2012-13 national player-of-theyear candidate to Nebraska from the state of Washington. Moore, who earned Associated Press All-America honors in 2013, was the 2009 Washington High School Player of the Year and a Parade All-American. She closed her Nebraska career as the school's all-time leader in assists (699), starts (132) minutes played (4,360) and victories (94). The twotime All-Big Ten selection also earned a pair of selections to the Big Ten All-Tournament Team. "Sunny has shown a tremendous commitment to our program for the past eight years and her knowledge and experience have been invaluable," Yori said. "She is a firm believer in the ideals we have set forth in our program, and she has played an important role in recruiting and the development of our players both on and off the court." Smallwood focuses her on-court coaching attention to developing Nebraska's backcourt players, while coordinating the Husker defense. She is also responsible for all aspects of Nebraska's individual player development workouts, while assisting with opponent scouting. "Sunny has a vast array of experience and is helping our program in all areas," Yori said. "She has proven herself as a dedicated and loyal assistant coach in this profession, and we expect her to have a positive impact on our program in the years to come." Smallwood came to Nebraska from the University of California, where she spent the 2004-05 season as the associate head coach for the Golden Bears. Smallwood helped Cal land one of the nation's top 10 recruiting classes during her only season in Berkeley. Before heading to California, Smallwood spent 11 seasons as an assistant coach at the University of Washington, including her last eight seasons in Seattle as the Huskies' lead assistant. She was the Huskies' recruiting coordinator all 11 years she spent on the staff at Washington.
A well-respected assistant coach with an impressive track record as a talented recruiter, Sunny Smallwood enters her ninth season on the Nebraska coaching staff in 2013-14, and her sixth as the Huskers' associate head coach. Smallwood, who joined Coach Connie Yori's Nebraska staff before the 2005-06 season, has played a major role in helping the Huskers to seven postseason tournament bids in the past eight seasons, including five NCAA Tournament trips. In 2009-10, Smallwood helped develop one of the top defenses in school history while powering Nebraska to a 32-2 record, a Big 12 regular-season title and the school's first NCAA Sweet 16 appearance. In 2012-13, the Huskers captured their second NCAA Sweet 16 bid in the past four years by working their way to a 25-9 record that included a 12-4 Big Ten mark. NU's regularseason and conference win totals were both the second best in Husker history, as Nebraska earned a Big Ten runner-up finish. Smallwood's defense sparked a 10-game winning streak for the Huskers in Big Ten play from Jan. 20-Feb. 28. Nebraska led the Big Ten in scoring defense (56.9 ppg), three-point field goal percentage defense (.275) and defensive rebounding (27.9 rpg), while ranking second in conference play in scoring margin (+7.6 ppg) and field goal percentage defense (.348). In 2011-12, Smallwood helped guide a young Husker team to the third-best record in school history with a 24-9 mark and another NCAA Tournament trip. Nebraska featured two true freshmen in the starting lineup along with sophomore All-American Jordan Hooper in every game. After going 10-6 in the Big Ten, the Huskers battled to a runner-up finish in their first-ever Big Ten Tournament by posting three straight wins.

During her time in Washington, Smallwood helped the Huskies to six NCAA Tournament appearances, advancing to the regional semifinals in 1995 and the NCAA Elite Eight in 2001. Smallwood worked under two head coaches at Washington, first for Chris Gobrecht and then June Daugherty. In eight seasons under Daugherty, Smallwood helped UW earn seven postseason tournament appearances. In her 11 seasons at Washington, Smallwood helped at least one player earn first-team All-Pac 10 Conference honors in all but one season. Smallwood's recruiting resume included Jamie Redd, a McDonald's High School All-American and UW's all-time leading scorer, and Amber Hall, the Huskies' all-time leading rebounder, along with All-Pac 10 Conference selections Megan Franza, LeAnn Sheets, Loree Payne, Andrea Lalum and Giuliana Mendiola, the 2003 Pac-10 Conference Player of the Year. Smallwood's international recruiting base included Laure Savasta, a member of the 2000 French Olympic team, and Hall, a Canadian National Team member. Smallwood began her collegiate coaching career as an assistant at Washington State from 1990 to 1993. In her first season in Pullman, the Cougars earned their first-ever bid to the NCAA Tournament. In addition to her on- and off-court coaching duties, Smallwood was also the director of Washington State's summer camps. A 1983 graduate of Boise State with a degree in secondary education, Smallwood was a two-time first-team academic All-Mountain West Conference selection for the Broncos as a player from 1979 to 1983. After college, Smallwood spent seven years as the head coach at Boise High School, leading her team to state tournament appearances in 1986 and 1989. She served as the head volleyball coach for one season, an assistant volleyball coach for three years and an assistant track and field coach for seven seasons. Born in Deadwood, S.D., on May 28, 1961, Smallwood attended high school in Price, Utah, where she was a multisport standout at Carbon High School and earned 16 varsity letters.

Gray-Miller had spent the previous seven seasons as the head coach at Saint Louis. In her first season as Nebraska's recruiting coordinator and post coach, Gray-Miller helped the Huskers to one of the best year's in school history. Nebraska battled its way to the second NCAA Sweet 16 appearance in the past four years. The Huskers finished with a 25-9 overall record that included a 12-4 Big Ten mark - both the second-highest win totals in school history. The Huskers finished No. 16 in the final NCAA RPI, No. 16 in the final NCAA attendance rankings and No. 18 in the final USA Today/Coaches Top 25. It marked the third time in the past four years that the Huskers had earned NCAA Tournament trips and final top-25 national rankings. Gray-Miller played a lead role in the continued development of All-America forward Jordan Hooper and two-year starter Emily Cady. Hooper, a Wade, Naismith and Wooden national player-ofthe-year candidate, earned first-team All-Big Ten honors for the second straight year by ranking among the conference's top five players in scoring (17.9), rebounding (8.8) and three-pointers made per game (2.4). A two-time All-American by both the Associated Press and the WBCA, the 6-2 forward from Alliance, Neb., could challenge for Nebraska's career records in points, rebounds and three-pointers as a senior in 2013-14. Cady, a two-time honorable-mention All-Big Ten selection, nearly averaged a double-double in Big Ten play as a sophomore. The 6-2 forward from Seward, Neb., averaged 9.6 points and 9.3 rebounds in Big Ten action. A tremendous all-around player, Cady was also one of NU's top defenders, top passers and led the team in blocked shots.

Hooper’s Honors
Jordan Hooper enters her senior season at Nebraska working to put the finishing touches on one of the finest careers in Husker history. The 6-2 forward from Alliance, Neb., will be a candidate for Wade, Naismith and Wooden National Player-of-the-Year awards again as a senior, after earning honorable-mention AllAmerica accolades each of the past two seasons. The two-time first-team All-Big Ten selection on the court is also a two-time academic All-Big Ten pick in the classroom. She is expected to contend for CoSIDA Academic All-America honors, while also earning nominations for the Senior CLASS Award and the WBCA Good Works Team for her efforts in the community. In addition to serving as an outstanding representative for the state of Nebraska, Hooper represented the United States as a member of USA Basketball's Women's World University Games Team in the summer of 2013. Hooper helped lead the USA to a gold medal by starting the championship game against a home-standing Russian squad that featured several 2012 Olympians. She scored nine points and grabbed nine rebounds in the gold medal win. After a tremendous offseason, Hooper enters her fourth year as a starter ranked 10th in school history with 1,685 points and fifth in the NU record book with 811 rebounds. She is in position to challenge for the top two spots in Husker history in scoring and rebounding while becoming just the third player in the NU record book to score 2,000 points and grab 1,000 rebounds in a career. Along the way, Hooper could shatter Nebraska's career three-point record. She enters
her senior season with 215 threes, needing just 52 more to catch NU all-time leader Kiera Hardy at 267. Hooper has averaged nearly 72 threes per season. A truly explosive scorer, Hooper owns six career 30-point games and 33 career 20-point scoring efforts. She also enters her senior season ranked third in school history with 26 doubledoubles. She needs 10 more to match 1993 Wade Trophy winner Karen Jennings and 14 more double-doubles to catch 2010 first-team All-American Kelsey Griffin's NU career mark. A reliable workhorse on the court and a strong leader by example, Hooper has started 98 consecutive games since opening night of her freshman season, while averaging nearly 1,000 minutes per year. She is on pace to rank among the top three players in school history in starts, games played and minutes played. She also hopes to join rare company in Husker history by leading Nebraska back to its third consecutive NCAA Tournament in 2014. "Jordan is one of the best players the state of Nebraska has ever produced and one of the best players in the history of the Nebraska basketball program," Coach Connie Yori said.

Jeffery
Brandi Jeffery will contend for a starting role in 2013-14, after competing as one of Nebraska's top players off the bench in each of her first two seasons. The 5-7 shooting guard from Vacherie, La., (pronounced VESS-er-ee) made the first six starts of her career to open her sophomore season, before facing adversity in 2012-13. She appeared in 30 games despite battling injuries on the year, helping the Huskers to their second straight trip to the NCAA Tournament. Jeffery closed the year by averaging 3.5 points and 1.9 rebounds per game. In the NCAA Tournament, Jeffery scored five first-half points to help spark a 19-2 Nebraska run on the way to a 74-63 win at No. 9 Texas A&M. The win punched the Huskers' ticket to their second NCAA Sweet 16 in the last four years. Following the season, Jeffery underwent successful knee surgery. She is expected to enter her junior year at 100 percent, after also battling a foot injury in 2012-13. "Brandi has a great scorer's mentality but she is also capable of making some great passes," Nebraska Coach Connie Yori said. "She has the ability to shoot well beyond traditional threepoint range and the ability to put the ball on the floor and knock down mid-range jumpers. She
also has the strength and athleticism to guard bigger players at the defensive end."
Sophomore (2012-13)
Jeffery contributed as one of Nebraska’s top players off the bench as a sophomore.

She was bothered by a knee injury late in the year that required offseason surgery. She also missed two games (Creighton, Florida State) following the death of her grandmother. Her playing time against Idaho State and South Florida was also limited because of her family commitments. Jeffery averaged 3.5 points and 1.9 rebounds while playing in 30 games to help NU to its second NCAA Sweet 16. She scored five first-half points to ignite NU’s 19-2 run to take control in Nebraska’s 74-63 win at No. 9 Texas A&M to advance to the Norfolk Regional semfinals.

Outlook (2013-14)
Sadie Murren (pronounced MURR-en) enters her second season at Nebraska hoping to make greater contributions to the Husker back court. The 5-8 sophomore guard from Colon, Neb., made early contributions for the Huskers as a freshman before being sidelined with an injury. She returned late in the year to play in both the Big Ten and NCAA tournaments. For the season, she appeared in 18 games, averaging 1.5 points and 0.9 rebounds. Murren carries a strong work ethic and is an outstanding long range shooter. She is also a tough, aggressive defender who could be counted on to solidify a Husker back court that must replace 2013 WNBA first-round pick Lindsey Moore. "Sadie can shoot the three, and she can get to the basket, but I think it is her toughness that sets her apart," Nebraska Coach Connie Yori said. "She battled injuries a little bit her freshman year, but she had a good offseason and we're expecting to see more from Sadie this season."

Theriot 6-0 l Sophomore l Guard Middleburg Heights, Ohio (Midpark)
Rachel Theriot (pronounced RAY-chel, TERRYoh) is working to make even greater contributions as a sophomore for the Huskers. The 6-0 point guard captured Big Ten AllFreshman honors in 2013, as one of the top young players in the conference. Theriot averaged 7.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game in Big Ten action, while starting every regular-season conference game. Those numbers came despite playing with an injured foot the entire season. Theriot played a major role in Nebraska's Big Ten regular-season runner-up finish and the Huskers' eventual run to their second NCAA Sweet 16. In three NCAA Tournament games, Theriot averaged 8.7 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists. During the offseason, Theriot underwent foot surgery to alleviate the pain she felt throughout her freshman season. Her recovery and rehabilitation carried through the summer, but she approached fall practice near 100 percent. Theriot will be expected to carry some of the load left by the graduation of All-America point guard Lindsey Moore. "Rachel has progressed well after surgery, and we're excited to see her at or near 100 percent," Nebraska Coach Connie Yori said. "She played all of last season with a foot injury, so no one really got to see the kind of plays she can make
because she was basically playing on one leg. Her health will be one of the big keys to our success this season. "We love Rachel's versatility. She is an unselfish player who loves to set her teammates up to score. She can also drive to the basket, hit the dribble jumper and knock down the three. She is also a good rebounder and defender."
Freshman (2012-13)
Theriot was a unanimous choice of the coaches on the Big Ten All-Freshman Team after averaging 6.2 points, 2.8 rebounds and 3.0 assists on the year. She produced double figures seven times on the year, all in the last 22 games. Theriot, who played in all 34 games with 28 straight starts despite battling a foot injury, was even better in Big Ten play, averaging 7.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.5 assists while starting all 16 games. In NU’s first-round NCAA win over Chattanooga, Theriot had 12 points, two assists, a rebound and a steal. She scored seven big points - all in the final three minutes of the first half - to help Nebraska knock off No. 9 Texas A&M in College Station March 25.

I've wanted to play basketball in the states ever since I was six years old, so finding a perfect fit for me was a dream come true. Nebraska was the only place that felt like home."

Five Facts About Hannah
1. Hannah loves to water ski. 2. Her normal routine in the morning includes an instant check on Twitter. 3. Hannah has a fear of birds, although she played her high school basketball for the Seward Bluejays. 4. She is obsessed with shoe shopping. 5. Hannah's favorite food is chocolate ice cream.
A four-year starting guard for Nebraska prep power Seward High School, Hannah Tvrdy (pronounced Tuh-VER-dee) committed to Nebraska before her junior season for the Bluejays in 2011-12. Hannah's father, Tom, was the head coach at Seward throughout her high school career, while her mother, Shelly (Block) was a letterwinner for the Huskers (198487). Shelly and Hannah will be the first motherdaughter combination in the history of Nebraska women's basketball. As a senior in 2012-13, Tvrdy led the Bluejays to a state semifinal appearance, finishing with a 23-5 record on the year. Tvrdy averaged 15.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and better than four assists per game on the season, on her way to second-team Super-State honors from the Lincoln Journal Star for the second consecutive season. She was also a first-team Class B allstate selection for the second straight year. During the course of her senior season, Tvrdy helped Seward stretch its winning streak to 104 consecutive games. Tvrdy was an integral part of Seward's unbeaten state championship seasons in 2010, 2011 and 2012. Tvrdy played her freshman and sophomore seasons alongside current Husker starting forward Emily Cady. As a junior in 2011-12, she was ranked as the No. 28 point guard in the nation by ESPN HoopGurlz. Nebraska Coach Connie Yori said Tvrdy's leadership and work ethic could help the Huskers immediately in 2013-14. "Hannah is an unselfish guard with size. She can rebound and shoot and she has that 'Nebraska' bluecollar work ethic and toughness that we like," Yori said. "She has been wellcoached and is accustomed to competing for and winning championships. She is former teammates with some of our current Huskers, and that will help ease her transition to the Division I level."
Before Nebraska
Tvrdy earned second-team Nebraska Super-State honors for the second straight season as a senior after averaging 15.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and better than four assists per game for state semifinalist Seward. She was also a first-team Class B all-state choice for the second consecutive year, helping Seward to a 23-5 overall record. As a junior in 2011-12, Tvrdy was named the honorary captain of the Class B first-team all-state squad after leading Seward to its fourth consecutive Nebraska Class B state championship with its third straight unbeaten

season. The second-team Lincoln Journal Star Super-Stater averaged 15.6 points and 5.0 rebounds per game as a junior playing for her father, Tom. Tvrdy earned second-team Class B all-state honors as a sophomore after averaging 12.7 points and 5.5 rebounds per game in 2010-11. She earned honorable-mention Class B all-state accolades as a freshman starter in 2009-10. Tvrdy, who was rated by ESPN as the No. 28 point guard in the nation in the class of 2013, was a teammate of Husker forward Emily Cady and Husker guard Sadie Murren on the Cornhusker Shooting Stars club team coached by Dan Lesoing. Hannah's father Tom was also an assistant coach for the Shooting Stars. An outstanding all-around athlete, Tvrdy earned four letters in track and field. She also lettered once in cross country. On the track, she competed in the 400 and 800 meters, while also running legs on three relays for the Bluejays, including the anchor leg of the 2011 Class B state champion 4x800 relay that set the Class B state and meet record (9:29.02). Tvrdy and Seward defended their title in the 3,200-meter relay in 2012, winning the all-class gold along the way.
Personal
The daughter of Tom and Shelly Tvrdy, Hannah was born Sept. 26, 1994, in Gothenburg, Neb. She has an older brother, Titus, and a younger brother, Carson. Hannah has not decided on a major at Nebraska, but she was an honor roll student all four years at Seward and a member of the National Honor Society in both 2011-12 and 2012-13. Hannah's mother, Shelly (Block) was a fouryear letterwinner for the Huskers from 1984 to 1987. A 5-9 forward/guard from Gothenburg, Neb., Shelly played in 109 career games with 44 starts at Nebraska. She had 345 points, 374 rebounds and 131 career assists. Hannah Tvrdy said she chose Nebraska because it felt like home. "When I visited I instantly fell in love with the program," Tvrdy said. "The coaches are wonderful, and I know they will push me every day to become a better player. When I met the team I knew I could fit in and have a great time playing with them. It just felt right, and I knew it was my future home."

Husker History With the Big Ten Conference
Although Nebraska competed for the first time as a member of the Big Ten Conference in 2011-12, the Huskers have a relatively substantial history playing against Big Ten opponents. Nebraska's first-ever meeting with a Big Ten school came with a thrilling 68-67 overtime victory over Minnesota on Dec. 30, 1977. Two weeks later, the Huskers improved to 2-0 against the Big Ten with a 71-63 victory over Iowa at the Jennies Classic in Warrensburg, Mo., on Jan. 13, 1978. The following season, Nebraska improved to 3-0 against the Big Ten with a narrow 59-57 victory over Minnesota at the Devaney Center on Nov. 28, 1978. The Huskers dropped their next two games against Big Ten foes that same season, falling 63-55 at Minnesota on Jan. 3, 1979, before suffering a 79-74 loss at the hands of Wisconsin in Madison on Jan. 5, 1979. Overall, the Huskers carry a 50-39 all-time record against Big Ten opposition after their first two seasons of Big Ten Conference competition. Nebraska is 26-12 against Big Ten foes in its first two seasons in the conference, including 22-10 in Big Ten regular-season play. Under Coach Connie Yori, the Huskers have posted a 31-20 record against the Big Ten, including a 13-5 record against conference foes last season (12-4 regular season). Yori and the Huskers have notched at least one victory against every Big Ten team. The Huskers have been exceptional on the road in Big Ten play in their first two seasons in the conference, including a 7-1 mark away from home last season. Nebraska owns a win in every Big Ten arena except the Breslin Center in East Lansing, Mich. The Huskers have played just one game at the Breslin Center, which ended with a Michigan State victory on Feb. 23, 2012. The Huskers will seek their first win in East Lansing against the Spartans on Jan. 9, 2014. Yori's Huskers also produced an enjoyable postseason memory at a Big Ten school, as the 2010 Nebraska team advanced to its first NCAA Sweet 16 by defeating Northern Iowa and UCLA at Williams Arena in Minneapolis, Minn.

Huskers Have Fun on Run to Second NCAA Sweet 16 Nebraska spent the 2012-13 season solidifying its spot among the top 20 women's college basketball programs in the nation. A young Husker team that featured just one senior starter and just two seniors overall on an 11-player roster, sprinted to its second NCAA Sweet 16 in the past four years. Despite playing the nation's No. 12 strength of schedule, the Huskers notched the second-most wins in school history with a 25-9 record. NU also finished second in the regular-season Big Ten standings with a 12-4 conference mark, the second-most league wins in school history. Nebraska's success translated into a No. 16 RPI in the final NCAA rankings and a No. 18 final national ranking in the USA Today Coaches Top 25. It was NU's third top-25 finish in the last four seasons. Nebraska's fan base also continued to grow in support of one of the nation's rising programs. The Huskers ranked 16th nationally in average home attendance with more than 5,200 fans per game watching Nebraska compete in its final season in the Bob Devaney Sports Center. The Huskers averaged nearly 6,600 fans per Big Ten home contest. Throughout the season, senior Lindsey Moore and junior Jordan Hooper rewrote Nebraska history. The pair became the first Husker teammates to earn preseason mention on the Wade, Naismith and Wooden National Player-of-the-Year watch lists at the same time. At the end of the season, they became the first Husker teammates to earn All-America honors in the same year. Moore continued to etch her name in Nebraska lore after the team's season ended with a loss to No. 5 Duke in the Norfolk Regional semifinal at the Constant Convocation Center. The 5-9 point guard from Covington, Wash., was selected in the first round of the WNBA Draft by the Minnesota Lynx. From start to finish, the Huskers produced a memorable ride through 2012-13, but like any long journey, it wasn't always smooth. "Considering where we started, we came a long way. We had a lot of injuries in September, October and November," Nebraska Coach Connie Yori said. "We weren't very healthy. We didn't have a lot of good practice time because we were not healthy. We really came a long way. We started out 2-3 in the Big Ten. It would have been easy to start pointing fingers, but I thought our kids did a really good job of pointing the thumb and saying, 'let's get better.' At that point, I thought we became a better practicing team and a better focused team and our players really bought in to what we were trying to do." Nebraska's road through 2012-13 actually began in the 2012 postseason. Following the Huskers' run to the Big Ten Tournament title game, Nebraska limped into the NCAA Tournament. Hooper and starter Hailie Sample did not practice in the two weeks leading up to NU's NCAA first-round loss because of foot injuries. Emily Cady battled a knee injury that required offseason surgery. Meghin Williams was slowed by a foot injury of her own. Center Adrianna Maurer was out after undergoing back surgery in January. During the offseason, Cady's surgery limited her for six to eight weeks. Hooper and Sample spent weeks on the sidelines. Hooper eventually returned in early summer, but Sample missed the entire offseason with a back injury.
Seniors Meghin Williams (#10) and Lindsey Moore (#00) led Nebraska to three NCAA Tournament appearances, including NU's first two NCAA Sweet 16 bids during their four years in Lincoln.
For most of the summer, the only healthy Huskers were Moore, sophomore guards Tear'a Laudermill and Brandi Jeffery, sophomore forward Katie Simon and freshman guards Rachel Theriot, Sadie Murren and Courtney Aitken. As summer turned to fall, health was still a major concern. Moore, Hooper and Cady were near 100 percent, but Sample did not return to the court until almost October. Just as Sample returned, Theriot was knocked out for a month with a foot injury of her own. That injury slowed her down for her entire freshman season. During exhibition play, sophomore Rebecca Woodberry left the team. By early December, Aitken was knocked out for the year with a leg injury and Murren suffered a back injury of her own. Maurer, who battled back from her own back injury to play in nine non-conference games, experienced the return of significant pain and chose to end her playing career. Jeffery was also affected by the death of her grandmother at the end of November, before battling foot and knee injuries the rest of the season. "Honestly, our preseason and early season practices were a joke," Yori said. "From day to day, we had no idea who was going to be on the floor available for practice, and that continued until January. We just had no consistency." Amazingly, Moore, Hooper, Cady and Sample started every game together for the second straight year, and Theriot replaced Jeffery in the starting lineup in Nebraska's seventh game Theriot went on to make the final 28 starts of the season. Despite their early season limitations, the Huskers opened with a 68-50 win over North Carolina A&T at the Devaney Center Nov. 9. It was NU's eighth straight season-opening victory and it came against an A&T team that won 22 games the first of 18 games for NU against 20-win teams. Jeffery shined in the win over the Aggies. Making her first career start, she scored 10 points and grabbed three rebounds. She added

10 more points, four rebounds and two steals in the Huskers' victory over Temple two days later. Nebraska added a win over Northern Arizona Nov. 16, which featured 15 consecutive points from Hooper to shoot NU to a 16-0 lead over the Lumberjacks. She finished with 27 points and seven rebounds in just 24 minutes. NU hit the road for the first time against South Dakota State. The defending Summit League champions fought their way to a 60-55 win over the Huskers. SDSU won 25 games and captured another Summit League crown before advancing to the 2013 NCAA Tournament. It was the first of NU's 18 games against NCAA Tournament teams and the first of 11 contests against 2013 conference champions for the Huskers. Nebraska defeated 2013 Southland Conference co-champion Sam Houston State, before a thrilling road win at USC moved NU to 5-1 on Nov. 23. The wins over the Bearkats and the Trojans marked the emergence of Laudermill as a major player in the Huskers' 2012-13 fortunes. The 5-9 sophomore from Riverside, Calif., scored seven points in the win over SHSU on Nov. 20. Then against the Trojans, she buried a three-pointer from the right wing with one second left on the shot clock and 1:49 on the game clock to give the Huskers a 64-63 lead. Those games marked a stretch of nine straight with five or more points for Laudermill. She finished with 23 such efforts on the year, averaging 5.9 points and 1.6 rebounds. Laudermill's speed, consistency and defensive ability added an important element for NU. Moore also put her ability to close games on display at USC. She scored 17 points in the final 6:06 to put the Trojans away. Moore finished with 23 points, seven rebounds and four assists. Nebraska returned home to face No. 11 Maryland. Theriot made her starting debut and made an instant impact with six points, six rebounds and four assists. But Terp All-American Alyssa Thomas was too much for NU. The 6-2

WNBA First-Rounder Moore Sets Career Standards forward finished with 25 points, five rebounds, eight assists and six steals. Nebraska rebounded with a 60-51 win over 2012 Big Sky champ Idaho State on Dec. 1, before suffering a 66-57 defeat at Creighton on Dec. 5. The Bluejays went on to share the Missouri Valley regular-season title and advance to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. The loss to the Jays did include a career-high 20 points for Sample, but Hooper suffered through the only scoreless game of her career. NU hit just 2-of-13 threes as a team. The Huskers played without Jeffery for the second straight game as she dealt with a death in her family, and it marked the last game of the year for Aitken. With a roster on the ropes, a star player coming off the worst performance of her career, and a 6-3 record, the Huskers faced back-to-back matchups with unbeaten teams from the state of Florida. No. 24 Florida State came to Lincoln with a 7-0 record and took NU to the limit. But Hooper responded with her best game as a Husker, erupting for a career-high 36 points to go along with 12 rebounds. Hooper connected on a seasonhigh six threes while going 12-of-20 from the field. In a duel with fellow All-America candidate Natasha Howard, Hooper outscored Howard 36-8 in NU's 78-77 win. FSU eventually advanced to the second round of the 2013 NCAA Tournament. The Huskers carried the momentum to South Florida to face the 8-0 Bulls at the Sun Dome on Dec. 16. Hooper put up 24 points and 14 rebounds, while Moore added 20 points. The Huskers also employed a zone defense for the first time on the season, forcing USF into an 8-for-34 three-point performance in NU's 62-52 win. The Bulls also advanced to the 2013 NCAA Tournament second round. Nebraska returned home to face its fourth straight 2013 NCAA Tournament team, posting an 80-67 win over Southland Conference cochampion Oral Roberts on Dec. 20. Hooper continued her torrid stretch with 33 points and nine rebounds in just 25 minutes. Moore added 15 points and eight assists, as Nebraska headed into the Holiday break with a 9-3 record. NU closed non-conference play with an 8439 win over Grambling State on Dec. 29. The Huskers then opened Big Ten action with a solid 70-52 victory over Wisconsin to improve to 11-3, setting up a top-25 showdown between the No. 25 Huskers and No. 14 Purdue. Nebraska and the Boilermakers had played a pair of epic battles that covered five overtimes in 2012, and all signs pointed to another tight game in NU's first-ever CBS nationally televised game. The two teams did not disappoint. With NU trailing 59-53 with 30 seconds left, Hooper hit a three to cut the deficit to 59-56. After a pair of missed free throws by Purdue, Hooper buried the game-tying three with 2.7 seconds left to send the 6,600 fans at the Devaney Center into a frenzy and another NU-Purdue game into overtime. Hooper finished with 15 points and 14 rebounds, while Moore added 22 points and eight assists, but Purdue prevailed 69-66. The Huskers hung with Purdue despite opening the game 0-for16 from the field, before Jeffery sparked NU with eight points and four assists off the bench. Nebraska rebounded with a 67-38 run past Indiana that included career highs of 14 points from both Theriot and Laudermill. Theriot added four rebounds and six assists.
A showdown at No. 8 Penn State followed, but the Huskers struggled in an 80-58 loss. NU returned home and was handed its only back-toback losses of the season in a 62-52 setback to an improved Illinois squad on Jan. 17. Those two losses put the Huskers at 12-5 overall and 2-3 in the Big Ten. It also put NU's season at a crossroads heading into a road game at Minnesota - a place the Huskers had never beaten the Golden Gophers. A players-only meeting before the Minnesota game helped set the tone. A change in defensive approach from full-court man pressure to a mix of man and zone added to Nebraska's focus. An 84-63 triumph over the Gophers in front of more than 6,300 fans at Williams Arena and a Big Ten Network national television audience changed the course of Nebraska's season. Moore shouldered the load, erupting for 26 points, seven rebounds, seven assists and three steals. Hooper added 17 points and eight boards, while Cady contributed a double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds. Theriot was spectacular with 13 points and eight assists on her way to a second Big Ten Freshman-of-the-Week award. The Huskers also held one of the Big Ten's most explosive offenses to just 63 points. More defense and several doses of Jordan Hooper followed. Hooper poured in 25 points in a 59-54 win over No. 25 Michigan State Jan. 24. She added 28 points and seven rebounds to shoot NU to a 62-53 win at Ohio State Jan. 31. An 80-56 home win over Minnesota in front of nearly 7,000 fans on Super Bowl Sunday in Lincoln, included 27 more from Hooper, as she led five Huskers in double figures. A 55-50 victory at Northwestern Feb. 7, gave NU four straight games holding foes in the fifties. Hooper poured in 29 points and grabbed eight boards in a 76-75 shootout at Iowa Feb. 11 to
stretch NU's winning streak to six games. Nebraska then took its defense to another level. In a 58-39 win over Ohio State in Lincoln Feb. 14, the Huskers held the Buckeyes to their lowest point total of the Jim Foster coaching era at OSU. A week later, No. 24 Nebraska overcame a 22-18 halftime deficit to rout Michigan 58-39 in Ann Arbor, outscoring an NCAA second-round team by 22 in the second half. The 39 points allowed were NU's fewest in history in a regular-season conference road game. A 66-46 pounding of Iowa that included a career-high 19 points from Theriot, and a 10-point, eight-assist, seven-rebound game from Moore, stretched NU's Big Ten winning streak. The No. 20 Huskers closed Big Ten road play with a thrilling 55-53 win at Wisconsin to complete a perfect 7-0 February and push Nebraska's winning streak to 10 games. It also gave NU a 7-1 road record in regular-season league action. The win against the Badgers set up a top-20 showdown with No. 7 Penn State for a share of the Big Ten title in the final home game in the history of the Devaney Center on Senior Night. Moore led NU with 23 points, but Big Ten Player-of-the-Year Maggie Lucas closed the Devaney Center with the best shooting performance in the building's history. Lucas hit a Devaney Center record eight threes to finish with 34 points and secure the Big Ten regular-season crown for the Lady Lions. However, the nearly 11,000 Husker fans who stayed after the game to hear speeches from Coach Yori, Moore and Williams were still excited by Nebraska's prospects for the postseason. For their performances during the regular season, Yori was named the Big Ten Coach of the Year. Hooper captured first-team All-Big Ten
Nebraska saluted Husker fans who followed them to College Station, Texas, for the NCAA Tournament after a 74-63 win over No. 9 Texas A&M to advance to the Sweet 16 on March 25.

Hooper Earns Second Straight All-America Award Nebraska's 2013 Team Awards

Honorable-mention All-Big Ten forward Emily Cady (#23), Big Ten All-Freshman guard Rachel Theriot (#24) and first-team All-Big Ten forward Jordan Hooper (#35) return to lead Nebraska in 2013-14.
accolades for the second straight year, while Moore settled for second-team honors. Cady was an honorable-mention All-Big Ten pick, while Theriot was a unanimous selection to the Big Ten All-Freshman Team. As the No. 2 seed in the Big Ten Tournament, the Huskers earned a first-round bye before facing Iowa for the sixth time in two seasons. A rested group of Huskers made it six in a row over the Hawkeyes with a 76-61 run in the quarterfinals at the Sears Centre Arena in Hoffman Estates, Ill., on March 8. Hooper continued to play at an All-America level with 24 points and seven rebounds. NU's lead ballooned to 72-45 with five minutes left before the Huskers rested their starters for a semifinal game with Purdue. The Boilermakers spoiled Nebraska's Big Ten Tournament run with a 77-64 win. Purdue went on to claim its second straight tournament title. Despite the loss, Moore earned a spot on the Big Ten All-Tournament Team for the second straight year - the only player not in the championship game to earn a selection. Nebraska returned to Lincoln to wait a week before finding out its NCAA Tournament destination. At 23-8 and ranked No. 24 in the polls with the nation's No. 16 RPI and No. 12 strength of schedule, the Huskers were being projected as a No. 3 or No. 4 seed in the tournament. However, when pairings were announced, Nebraska received a No. 6 seed and a berth in the NCAA first and second round site at Reed Arena in College Station, Texas. While the Huskers were a bit surprised by their seed, they approached the postseason in an excellent frame of mind. "I kind of like the middle of the pack," Hooper said. "Honestly, I don't care. Whoever we play, we play. Wherever we go, we go." Nebraska's first-round foe was No. 11 seed Chattanooga. The Lady Mocs rode a 19-game
winning streak into the tournament as the Southern Conference champion. They also owned a victory over traditional national power Tennessee in the first game of the season. The No. 24 Huskers were tied with Chattanooga at 32 at the half, before the Lady Mocs built a 4738 lead early in the second half. After a timeout, the Huskers made a defensive adjustment, and Hooper caught fire offensively. Hooper poured in 18 of her game-high 21 points in the second half, including three consecutive three-pointers in a span of just 1:30. Hooper finished with 21 points and 12 rebounds for the 26th double-double of her career. Moore added 13 points, five rebounds and seven assists, while Theriot added 12 points. Cady also just missed a double-double of her own with 10 points and nine boards to help fuel Nebraska's 73-59 first-round win. The win over Chattanooga and Texas A&M's win over Missouri Valley champion Wichita State, set up a showdown of former Big 12 Conference foes on the familiar floor of Reed Arena. Texas A&M entered the NCAA Tournament as the SEC Tournament champions and the No. 9 team in the nation according to the AP. But WNBA first-round draft pick Kelsey Bone and the Aggies could not match the Huskers on March 25, 2013. Moore was sensational, erupting for 20 points, 10 assists and six rebounds for her fifth career double-double. Hooper led NU with 21 points and eight boards while adding three steals in her matchup with Bone. Sample, a native of Flower Mound, Texas, added the first double-double of her career with 10 points and 11 boards. Sample scored eight points in the game's final five minutes to help punch Nebraska's ticket to the NCAA Sweet 16 for the second time in school history. Texas A&M Coach Gary Blair may have summed up Nebraska's performance best.
REVIEW | MOORE, HOOPER CAPTURE ALL-AMERICA AWARDS IN 2013
"I'm not sure Nebraska can play any better than they did," Blair said. "When you look at the stats, they shot 45 percent, 8-out-of-19 from the three, 14-out-of-15 from the line and outrebounded us by 12. They really only had about four turnovers until the very end. It's hard to beat a team that was playing that well. Nebraska played awfully well. We only had two free throws for the whole ball game. A lot of that was their good defense." The Huskers were faced with No. 5 Duke in the NCAA Norfolk Regional semifinals. Duke brought 32 wins, an ACC title and a roster filled with high school All-Americans. In the week leading up to the game, Hooper suffered an ankle sprain and missed a pair of practices. However, she played at a high level in the game, pulling down 11 rebounds while adding six points. On her final shot of the day, Hooper resprained the ankle while landing after making a jumpshot that cut Duke's lead to 40-32 with 7:55 left. She missed the rest of the contest. Without their scoring leader, Nebraska turned to forwards Williams and Simon, who combined for six points off the bench down the stretch to trim Duke's lead to six on two occasions. But the Huskers finished just 3-for-24 from three-point range and hit just 30.3 percent of their shots in the game. NU's season ended with a 53-45 loss in a defensive struggle, but the loss did not take any of the lustre off the Huskers' accomplishments. Moore led the Huskers with 11 points, five rebounds and six assists in her final game at Nebraska. Her six assists pushed her career total to 699, eclipsing the former record of 696 set by Meggan Yedsena (1991-94). Moore also tied Yedsena's single-season record of 195. "Playing here at Nebraska has been an unbelievable experience and one that I will never forget," Moore said. "It has definitely been the best four years of my life. It was so exciting to be a part of this program. This is going to be a great program to watch in the future, because they have learned about being hungry, happy and healthy." While Moore will always hold Nebraska in her heart, Yori recognized Moore's contribution to the Husker program. "She's one of the best players who ever put a Nebraska uniform on. That's pretty clear," Yori said. "I wouldn't trade her for anyone. She's just such a competitor." While Moore will be missed by Yori and the rest of the Huskers, Yori said her impact on the program and the rise Nebraska has experienced is expected to continue. "I think we're playing at the highest level," Yori said. "Our RPI, our strength of schedule and two trips to the Sweet 16 in four years shows the work is paying off. We're going after another aggressive schedule. You may not win as many games, but if you look at our success in the Big Ten and the NCAA, you can see our schedule helped us prepare for the toughest teams in the country this year."

The Badgers could not get the margin below 10 again, as the Huskers built the lead as large as 19 points. Hooper hit a trio of threes, while Emily Cady tied her career high with three triples of her own. Cady finished with her first double-double of the year and fourth of her career with 13 points and a career-high 14 rebounds. She added three assists, two steals and a block.

Game Highlights: Lindsey Moore had 22 points and eight assists and Jordan Hooper pitched in 15 points and 14 rebounds, but it was not enough to prevent No. 14 Purdue from escaping the Devaney Center with a 69-66 overtime win in NU’s first-ever CBS nationally televised game. Nebraska opened 0-for-16 from the field in the first 8:40, before Brandi Jeffery hit NU’s first field goal, a three-pointer, to cut Purdue’s lead to 13-4. After threes by Moore and Jeffery less than three minutes later, the Huskers had the Boilermakers’ lead to one at 15-14. Nebraska trailed 26-23 at the half, despite shooting just 21.6 percent (8-37) from the floor in the opening period. NU took its first lead on a Hooper three-pointer midway through the second half, and the Huskers owned a 49-45 edge with just over six minutes left. But Purdue responded with a 14-4 surge to take a 59-53 lead into the final minute. Hooper hit backto-back threes in the final 30 seconds after missed free throws by Courtney Moses and KK Houser gave the Huskers hope. Hooper’s final three came with 2.7 seconds left to send the game to overtime. Purdue controlled the overtime, but the game was still tied at 66 before the Boilermakers prevailed.

Game Highlights: Rachel Theriot scored 14 points and Tear’a Laudermill matched her career best with 14 of her own off the bench to help Nebraska to a 67-38 win at Indiana. Theriot hit 7-of-9 shots from the field, including all five of her attempts in the first half to shoot the Huskers to a 37-17 halftime edge. Laudermill added 6-of-9 shooting while sparking a suffocating Husker defense that held Indiana to just 24 points in the first 33 minutes. Jordan Hooper and Emily Cady each added their second Big Ten doubledoubles of the year to help the Huskers dominate the Hoosiers on the glass. NU matched its season high with a plus-23 rebound margin, outworking the Hoosiers 50-27 on the boards. Nebraska held Indiana without a field goal for the game’s first 8:40, but the Hoosiers trailed just 19-15 until a Cady three-pointer started an 18-2 NU surge in the final five minutes of the first half. The Huskers ended any Hoosier hopes of a second-half comeback by outscoring Indiana 15-2 in the first eight minutes of the second half. Nebraska took its biggest lead of the night at 62-24 with seven minutes left in the game.

The Huskers trailed just 26-23 with three minutes left in the first half, before the Lady Lions closed on a 14-4 surge capped by a halfcourt buzzer beater by Alex Bentley to take a 40-27 lead to the halftime. Bentley finished with 19 points and five steals. PSU built the lead to 59-33 five minutes into the second half and never looked back.

Game Highlights: Jordan Hooper led Nebraska with 17 points, but was the only Husker in double figures as Illinois scrapped to a 62-52 win. Hooper went just 6-for-22 from the field, including 3-for-11 from three-point range, as Nebraska struggled against the Fighting Illini’s pressure defense. Illinois forced a season-high 26 turnovers by NU, snagging 16 steals. Illinois also held the Huskers to just 32.8 percent shooting, including 26.9 percent from long range. Nebraska’s defense was nearly as effective, forcing 24 turnovers by the Illini, including 13 by sophomore point guard Alexis Smith. But led by Karisma Penn’s 18 rebounds, including 10 on the offensive end, the Illini won the battle of the boards, 45-36. Illinois hit 21-of-61 shots from the floor, including 6-of-21 three-pointers to produce similar percentages as the Huskers. But the Illini connected on 14-of-15 free throws to seal the win. Emily Cady managed nine points and eight rebounds. Lindsey Moore pitched in nine points and three assists to become just the second Husker in history to reach the 600-assist mark in her career. Nebraska’s 20 first-half points and 52 points for the game were both season lows up to that point in the year.

She helped the Huskers to their first-ever win over the Golden Gophers at Williams Arena. But Moore, who pumped in 18 points in the second half, was far from a one-woman show. Jordan Hooper added 17 points, eight rebounds and two steals, while Emily Cady contributed her third Big Ten double-double of the year with 12 points and a game-high 10 boards. Rachel Theriot pitched in one of her best games of the year with 13 points and a career-high eight assists to go along with a careerbest three three-pointers.

The Huskers shot a season-best 48.3 percent from the field, including a then-season-best 53.3 percent from three-point range. NU also outrebounded Minnesota 42-35 and won the turnover battle.

Game Highlights: Jordan Hooper produced game highs with 25 points and seven rebounds to lead Nebraska to a 59-54 win over No. 25 Michigan State. In a game controlled by the defenses, Hooper put up the most points by a Spartan opponent on the year by hitting 9-of-18 shots, including 3-of-7 three-pointers. She also went 4-for-4 at the free throw line. Hooper led a dominant Nebraska inside game that outscored the Spartans 34-18 in the paint, and outrebounded MSU 39-38. Michigan State entered the game with a plus-11.2 rebound margin in Big Ten play. With the Huskers scoring on the block, NU hit 44.2 percent of its attempts against a stingy Spartan defense that was allowing just 47 points per game. Hooper hit the only three-pointers by a Husker on the night, as NU went just 3-of-12 from long range and just 10-of-19 at the line, but still owned a double-digit lead over Michigan State heading into the final minute. Lindsey Moore added 12 points, six assists and three steals, as all eight Huskers who played in the game had at least two points and one rebound. Kiana Johnson led Michigan State with a then-career-high 22 points, including a career-best four threes. Johnson entered the game just 2-of-23 from beyond the arc.

Game Highlights: Jordan Hooper scored a game-high 29 points and added eight rebounds to help shoot Nebraska to its sixth straight win in a thrilling 76-75 victory at Iowa. Hooper hit 11-of-23 shots from the field, including a pair of threes to help fuel NU’s fourth straight Big Ten road win - the second-longest streak in school history. Hooper hit back-to-back threes in the first three minutes of the game to shoot the Huskers to an 11-2 lead. Iowa rallied to tie the game at 11, but a Hooper jumper gave NU the lead for good with just under 15 minutes left in the half. The Huskers pushed the lead to 41-32 at halftime thanks to seven first-half threes, including two each from Emily Cady and Brandi Jeffery, who matched her season high with 10 points. Cady finished with nine points and eight rebounds. Lindsey Moore scored all 14 of her points in the second half, while adding seven rebounds and seven assists against just one turnover. Moore’s free throws with 12 seconds left pushed NU’s edge to 76-72 and made Theairra Taylor’s three-pointer at the buzzer meaningless to the outcome.

Game Highlights: Nebraska used a stifling defense and a dominant rebounding effort to roll to its seventh straight victory with a 58-39 win over Ohio State at the Devaney Center. Playing in their annual Play 4Kay game, the Huskers held the Buckeyes to their lowest point total in Coach Jim Foster’s 11 seasons in Columbus.

The game was tied at 15 with just over two minutes left in the first half and the Buckeyes were leading 22-14 on the boards. But Emily Cady, who notched her fourth double-double with 10 points and a career-high 16 rebounds, helped NU outwork OSU on the glass, 39-23 the rest of the way. Lindsey Moore added 14 points and a season-high eight rebounds, while Jordan Hooper pitched in eight points and 10 boards. Rachel Theriot and Tear’a Laudermill each added nine points for the Big Red.

Game Highlights: No. 24 Nebraska used a 21-0 run in the first eight minutes of the second half to roll to a 57-39 victory at Michigan. Trailing the Wolverines 22-18 at the half, Nebraska stormed out of the locker room led by Jordan Hooper and Lindsey Moore. Hooper notched her eighth double-double of the season and third in Big Ten play with 14 points and 12 rebounds. Moore produced game highs of 15 points and eight assists, including a trio of secondhalf threes. NU hit 7-of-12 threes in the second half to bury Michigan from long range, as the Wolverines went just 3-for-23 for the game. NU finished 10-of23 from beyond the arc, as Hooper, Brandi Jeffery and Tear’a Laudermill all pitched in a pair of threes. Defense was crucial to Nebraska’s eighth straight win and fifth consecutive Big Ten road win. NU’s 39 points allowed were the fewest in a regular-season conference road game in school history. It also gave Nebraska back-to-back Big Ten games holding foes to fewer than 40 points. Since regular-season conference (Big Eight) play began in 1982-83, NU had held opponents to less than 40 just two times.

Game Highlights: Hailie Sample’s layup off an assist from Lindsey Moore with 43 seconds left in the game as the shot clock expired brought No. 20 Nebraska back from a late five-point deficit in a 55-53 win over Wisconsin. Sample’s layup gave Nebraska a 54-53 lead after the Huskers had trailed 49-44. Moore, who finished with a team-high 13 points, added a free throw with 9.9 seconds left to give NU the final margin in its 10th consecutive victory. Moore added six rebounds, four assists and two steals, which gave her 200 steals in her career. Sample finished with six points. Rachel Theriot played a huge role for the Huskers down the stretch, hitting four field goals including a jumper with 1:36 left that gave Nebraska a 52-51 lead. Theriot, who hit four of NU’s nine field goals in the second half, finished with 11 points and two assists. Emily Cady added eight points, 11 rebounds and a career-high four blocked shots, while Jordan Hooper pitched in seven points and 11 boards.

Attendance: 10,832. Game Highlights: Lindsey Moore scored a team-high 23 points on 9-of-11 shooting from the field, but it wasn’t enough to prevent No. 20 Nebraska from falling to No. 7 Penn State, 82-67 in NU’s final game at the Devaney Center. Nebraska finished the regular season with a 22-7 record and a 12-4 Big Ten mark, missing out on a share of the league title with Penn State. Moore hit back-to-back three-pointers to open the game, shooting the Huskers to a 6-2 lead, but the Lady Lions rallied behind the hot shooting of Big Ten Player of the Year Maggie Lucas. The junior hit a Devaney Center record eight three-pointers, finishing with 34 points on the night. Despite the huge game from Lucas, who led four Lady Lions in double figures, the Huskers trailed just 55-52 with 12:27 left after a layup from Moore. Penn State closed out the win by hitting 11 of its last 15 shots. Emily Cady produced a double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds, while adding two assists, two steals and a block.

Game Highlights: Lindsey Moore scored 22 points, dished out eight assists and snagged two steals but it was not enough to prevent No. 2 seed Nebraska from falling to No. 3 seed Purdue, 77-64, in the Big Ten semifinals at Sears Centre Arena in Hoffman Estates, Ill. Jordan Hooper added 15 points and nine rebounds for NU, but no other Husker produced more than six points. Moore and Hooper combined to go 6-for-14 from three-point range, but the rest of the Huskers went 0-for-7 from beyond the arc. Nebraska received solid support from Emily Cady with six points, eight rebounds, four assists and three blocks, while Hailie Sample pitched in six points and four boards. Tear’a Laudermill added six points off the bench, while Rachel Theriot and Meghin Williams contributed four points apiece.

NU cut Purdue’s margin to 10 on several occasions but could not get it back to single digits in the second half. The Boilermakers went on to defeat Michigan State for the tournament title.

Turnovers: Nebraska 12; Duke 9. Technical Fouls: None. Officials: Roberts, Billy Smith, Hall. Attendance: 5,687. Game Highlights: In a game dominated by defense, No. 24 Nebraska was unable to hit enough shots to knock off No. 5 Duke in the NCAA Norfolk Regional semifinal at the Ted Constant Convocation Center on the campus of Old Dominion. The Huskers led 18-11 midway through the first half, but missed their final eight shots of the half as the second-seeded Blue Devils closed on a 12-0 run to take a 23-18 halftime lead. Nebraska responded early in the second half, pulling within one on several occasions, the last time coming at 27-26 with 16:53 left. Duke took its first double-digit lead at 40-30 with 8:49 left, but Jordan Hooper responded with a jumper at the free throw line with 7:55 left. However, Hooper sprained her ankle as she landed and was knocked out of the game. Without their leading scorer, the Huskers continued to battle, getting four points off the bench from Katie Simon and two more from Meghin Williams to trim Duke’s lead to six twice in the closing minutes. Lindsey Moore led NU with 11 points, five rebounds and six assists, becoming Nebraska’s career assist leader with 699. She tied NU’s season assist mark with 195.

Huskers Celebrated Final Season at Devaney Center in 2012-13
The 13,595-seat Bob Devaney Sports Center was the home to Husker women's basketball for 37 seasons from 1976-77 through 2012-13. Opened in the fall of 1976, the Devaney Center was located on NU's Innovation Campus (formerly the Nebraska State Fairgrounds). The building was a $13 million project that housed the Huskers' basketball, track, swimming, wrestling and gymnastics teams, and the Hendricks Training Complex (completed in October 2011). Named after Bob Devaney, NU's Hall of Fame football coach and athletic director (1962-93), the Devaney Center was home to Husker women's basketball since the earliest days of the program. The new Hendricks Training Complex includes a practice gym, new athletic medicine center, a new locker room, team area and basketball offices. The practice facility serves as the home of Husker women's basketball on campus. In 2013-14, the Huskers begin play in the new Pinnacle Bank Arena. In 2009-10, Nebraska ranked seventh nationally with a school-record average home attendance of 7,390 fans per game. The Huskers also led the Big 12 in league games only by averaging 11,383 fans per contest, including seven consecutive crowds of more than 10,000 fans to close the season. NU sold out the Devaney Center for women's basketball with 13,595 on hand for a win over Missouri on Feb. 27, 2010. The Huskers have regularly ranked among the top 30 teams in average attendance, including 16th in 2012-13.

Huskers Building Richer Tradition Under Yori injury to Griffin. Her injury required a pair of surgeries and she was forced to redshirt. Nebraska's inside depth was further challenged by a season-ending knee injury to Nikki Bober near the end of non-conference play. Starting forward Cory Montgomery played the entire season, but battled multiple injuries that limited her practice time early in the year. Turner also played through a shoulder injury, while Kaitlyn Burke, a part-time starter at shooting guard, struggled with a broken finger on her shooting hand. Despite starting conference play 1-8, the Huskers refused to surrender and closed the Big 12 campaign as one of the league's hottest teams. NU finished the regular season with a 15-14 mark and a 6-10 Big 12 record to secure a seventh straight postseason trip. Griffin, Turner, Montgomery and Kelley all returned fully healthy to the starting lineup for the Huskers in 200910, and added Washington High School Player-of-the-Year Lindsey Moore at the starting point guard spot. The starting five, along with experienced senior reserves Kala Kuhlmann and Nicole Neals, and junior centers Catheryn Redmon and Jessica Periago gave the Huskers the talent and depth to contend on the national level in 2010. After injuries and graduation left the Huskers shorthanded in 2010-11, a young Nebraska squad began a new building process in 2011-12. In the Huskers' first-ever Big Ten Conference season, a roster that featured six freshmen among just 10 active players rolled to the third-highest victory total in school history with a 24-9 record. After posting a 10-6 Big Ten regular-season mark, the Huskers stormed to the Big Ten Tournament Championship Game before falling in two overtimes to Purdue. The young Huskers advanced to the school's 10th NCAA Tournament after posting nine wins over 2012 NCAA Tournament teams. Not only did the Huskers have to overcome their own inexperience, all five starters overcame injuries to start every game during the season. Jordan Hooper became the first sophomore in school history to reach 1,000 career points, while becoming the first NU sophomore to produce 600 points and 300 rebounds in a season. Nebraska's first-ever first-team AllBig Ten selection, Hooper also claimed honorable-mention All-America honors from the AP and the WBCA. A candidate for the Wade and Naismith National Player-of-the-Year awards, Hooper was joined on the Naismith watch list by teammate Lindsey Moore. The 5-9 junior was also one of eight finalists for the Nancy Lieberman Award as the nation's top point guard. A second-team All-Big Ten pick, Moore joined Hooper on the Big Ten All-Tournament Team and in Nebraska's 1,000-point club. Emily Cady, one of Nebraska's six 2012 freshmen, earned a spot on the Big Ten All-Freshman team after producing one of the best rookie seasons in school history. The 6-2 forward from Seward, Neb., joined Hailie Sample in becoming the first freshmen in school history to start every game together during their rookie seasons. Nebraska's lone active senior, Kaitlyn Burke, laid the foundation for the success of the young Huskers as one of NU's top leaders. The President of Nebraska's StudentAthlete Advisory Committee was one of 30 candidates nationally for the Senior CLASS Award. While the leadership of Burke and fellow senior Harleen Sidhu was missed, Nebraska's 10 returning players gave the Huskers plenty of reasons to be optimistic about the future. The 2012-13 Huskers fulfilled that promise by making Nebraska's second NCAA Sweet 16 appearance in a fouryear span. Led by Moore, Hooper, Cady, Sample and freshman All-Big Ten guard Rachel Theriot, NU finished with a 25-9 record that included a 12-4 Big Ten mark. The Huskers played for a share of the Big Ten regular-season title in the final home game in the history of the Devaney Center. Although they came up short, the Huskers went on to defeat Chattanooga, 73-59 in the first round of the NCAA Tournament at College Station, Texas. Two nights later, the sixth-seeded Huskers pulled one of the biggest
All-American Kelsey Griffin earned Big 12 Player-of-the-Year honors while leading the Huskers to a 30-0 start in 2009-10. Griffin averaged 20.1 points and 10.4 rebounds per game as a senior for the Big 12 champion Huskers. upsets of the tournament, knocking off SEC Tournament champion and No. 9 ranked Texas A&M, 74-63, on the Aggies' homecourt at Reed Arena. Moore put an exclamation point on her amazing career with her fifth career double-double with 20 points and 10 assists. Hailie Sample made a triumphant return to her home with 10 points and 11 rebounds to add her first career double-double. Moore, who led NU to three NCAA tournaments including a pair of Sweet 16 bids, won more games (94), started more games (132) and played more minutes (4,360) than any player in school history. She also set the school record with 699 career assists, while adding 1,673 points. After earning honorable-mention All-America honors as a senior, Moore became Nebraska's third WNBA firstround pick by the Minnesota Lynx in the 2013 draft. Although the Huskers will miss Moore in 2013-14, Hooper, Cady, Sample and Theriot all return to the starting lineup for the Big Red. The four returning starters and eight returning letterwinners give Nebraska plenty of reasons to expect continued success at the Big Ten and NCAA Tournament level in the coming years. The move into the new Pinnacle Bank Arena in downtown Lincoln brings even more optimism about the future of the program. The $179 million arena has brought an exciting electricity to the entire city, and interest in women's basketball across the state of Nebraska is at an all-time high. The new arena also puts NU in position to potentially host NCAA Tournament games for the first time since 1993. The atmosphere around Nebraska women's basketball in 2013-14 is a far cry from its humble beginnings on the UNL campus. In March of 1898, a university women's team played a
game against an outside opponent for the first time. The opposition was provided by a team from Council Bluffs, Iowa. The contest was played at the Nebraska armory, Grant Memorial Hall. Among the matters to be resolved before the game was whether men's rules or those of Smith College should apply. In 1894, only three years after Dr. James Naismith established the rules for basketball, Senda Berenson, director of physical education at Smith College in Massachusetts, modified Naismith's game for women. In contrast to the Nebraska team, the captain of which was graduate student Louise Pound, the team from Council Bluffs had been playing by the more physical men's rules. A compromise was reached. The first half would by played by men's rules, the second by Smith College rules. The teams played six on a side: two centers, two guards and two forwards. Pound played center. Another issue was whether men should be allowed to attend. Administrators decided that any "gentleman'' accompanied by a "lady'' would be admitted, but single men might be prohibited lest the game attract the wrong kind of audience. The unflattering bloomers women wore in gym classes were regarded as inappropriate dress for mixed company, regardless of the circumstances. As a result, intramural track and field competition involving women was held indoors until 1904. Early basketball games involving the university women were well-attended, and there was "always a goodly surplus in the treasury,'' according to the Nebraska State Journal. The gymnasium was filled well in advance of the game's start. The Council Bluffs team, made up of girls who were "slighter of build and younger,'' proved to be no match for

Pound and her university teammates. Pound, who also was the first all-university tennis champion, accounted for three field goals and five free throws in a 15-7 win. The play of Nebraska's Harriet Cooke and Marie Beach drew mention in newspaper accounts. Cooke, like Pound, played center and accounted for Nebraska's other points. Beach was a guard, along with Marie Kennedy. The Council Bluffs forwards were much shorter and had difficulty passing the ball over Beach and Kennedy to their centers, who were responsible for scoring goals. Bertha du Teil and Helen Welch were Nebraska's forwards. Rose Long was a substitute. Basketball was introduced in the university's physical education classes for sophomore women in 1896. As was the case with male students, class teams competed against each other. The first all-university women's team was organized in 1896, according to the Nebraska State Journal. It included the best players regardless of their class, among them Welch, the only player from that first team who participated in the contest against the Council Bluffs team in March of 1898. Welch and her five teammates were "trained'' by Anne Louise Barr and played other inter-class teams. The first women's game played before an audience was part of NU's sixth annual gymnasium exhibition in the spring of 1897, according to Phyllis Kay Wilke's "Physical Education for Women at Nebraska University, 1879-1923,'' published in the spring 1975 issue of Nebraska History. Pound was the driving force in women's basketball at the university, organizing as well as playing on the earliest teams. She was a member of the team in the 1898-99 school year. It didn't play any opponents from outside of the university and very few intramural opponents, for that matter, because a large pipe organ donated by an alumni group was stored in the gym. In April of 1901, the university sponsored a women's state tournament under Pound's direction at Grant Hall. Nebraska was represented by a first and second team in a
field that included teams from the Omaha YWCA, Lincoln High and Wahoo High. The university's first team, led by captain Eleanore Miller, won the two-day competition. In November of 1901, Nebraska played a team from the University of Missouri at Grant Hall, "the first intercollegiate match for girls ever played in the west,'' according to the Nebraska State Journal. Missouri was no match for its experienced opponent. Miller, who was still on the varsity team, had been succeeded as captain by Hannah Pillsbury. Nebraska won 31-4. The varsity team had yet to lose in its brief history. Nebraska's varsity team didn't play against outside competition again until 1903, when it defeated the Omaha YWCA in Omaha 18-9 and a team from the Haskell Indian School in Lawrence, Kan., 42-8. The University second team also played that day, defeating Baker University, 22-1. Efforts were being made to encourage intercollegiate competition for women, according to the Nebraska student yearbook for 1902, The Sombrero. The next university yearbook, published two years later, noted that women's basketball was experiencing dramatic growth. In 1904, Nebraska suffered its first defeat, losing to the University of Minnesota at Minneapolis after opening an abbreviated schedule by shutting out the Lincoln YWCA 16-0. NU avenged the loss two weeks later in Lincoln. Nebraska was 3-0 in 1905, against the Haskell Indian School, Missouri and the Omaha YWCA, the last two games on the road. The season was short but successful, the student yearbook noted: "Owing to an inability to schedule games with desirable teams, only three games were played.'' In 1907, no women's varsity team was picked. In March of 1908, Nebraska played games against Minnesota, home-and-home, two weeks apart. Nebraska lost them both, 9-3 and 28-22, after a five-minute overtime. Earlier, NU had defeated a team from Nebraska Wesleyan to finish its final season with a 1-2 record. Despite their remarkable success, the university women were allowed to play basketball only in physical
Karen Jennings earned the 1993 Wade Trophy and was Nebraska's first first-team All-American. Also a tremendous student, Jennings was the two-time CoSIDA Academic All-American of the Year for women's basketball and was inducted into the CoSIDA Academic All-America Hall of Fame in 2008.

education classes after April 24, 1908. In response to the concerns of faculty members, who considered such activity inappropriate, the Board of Regents abolished intercollegiate athletics for women. More than 60 years passed before the University sponsored women's teams. Women's club teams were formed beginning in 1970. In 1974-75, such a team coached by Jan Callahan won nine of 16 games. Only three of the games were against opponents from outside the state. The team played on the small court in Mabel Lee Hall, which was named for the women's physical education director from 1924 to 1952. A typical audience might be 30, mostly friends and relatives of the players. The modern era of women's basketball at Nebraska more accurately dates from 1975, with the arrival of Aleen Swofford as women's athletic director and the offering of scholarships. The total budget for women's athletics was less than $40,000. George Nicodemus, an Iowa native who had directed John F. Kennedy College in Wahoo, Neb., to a pair of AAU women's national titles, succeeded Callahan as volunteer coach of NU's fledgling program in 1975. With seven scholarships and Jan Crouch, his tallest starter at 5-foot11, Nicodemus produced a 22-9 record in his first season. The Huskers finished third in the Big Eight Tournament in Manhattan, Kan., in February of 1976. They won the state collegiate tournament held at Midland College in Fremont, Neb.; lost in the second round of an Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) regional tournament in Fargo, N.D.; and finished by winning two consolation games at the National Women's Invitational Tournament at Amarillo, Texas. "We are only a couple of tall girls away from winning a national championship,'' Nicodemus said after his first year. Nicodemus, whose duties also included the softball program, became a paid coach his second season at Nebraska, receiving an annual salary of $12,000. The Huskers finished 20-14 and finished second to Kansas State at the league tournament in Boulder, Colo. Nebraska's season ended with a 74-54 loss at Nebraska-Omaha in the first round of the state tournament. The UNO game was Nicodemus' last as NU's coach. Dr. June Davis, who had served for two years as women's sports information director at the university, succeeded Swofford as women's athletic director and set about replacing Nicodemus. Davis hired Marcia Walker, who had spent two years at Dakota Wesleyan. Walker announced she would resign with about a third of a 12-14 season remaining. The team would have four more coaches in the next nine years, including Lorrie Gallagher, Colleen Matsuhara, Kelly Hill and Angela Beck, who finally brought stability to the program in 1986. Gallagher followed Walker and coached two 20-win seasons, both of which earned the Huskers AIAW regional tournament berths. The first of Matsuhara's three teams advanced to an AIAW regional, making it three in a row. NU would have only one winning season in the next five. The Huskers lost nearly twice as often as they won during the next two years, which preceded the promotion of Dr. Barbara Hibner to women's athletic director and Beck's arrival from Bradley. Among the dominant Nebraska players of the late 1970s and early 1980s were 1,000-point career-scorers Jan Crouch, Diane DelVigna, Janet Smith, Kathy Hagerstrom, Cathy Owen, Debra Powell, Stacy Imming and Angie Miller. Powell finished her four-year career in 1984-85 as the Huskers' all-time leader with 1,843 points, a total that has since been exceeded. Powell was the first Husker to earn first-team All-Big Eight honors, earning the award as a junior. DelVigna was the most prolific of the eight scorers, averaging 19.1 points per game during her two seasons at NU. Smith, who played on the three consecutive AIAW regional qualifiers coached by Gallagher and Matsuhara, pulled down a school-record 1,280 rebounds and scored 1,284 points. The 29-year-old Beck, a native of Decatur, Ill., had been an All-American at Millikan, an NCAA Division III school in her hometown. Beck inherited two players who helped the Huskers make history by capturing their first Big Eight

regular-season title, the best record in school history and the first NCAA Tournament bid in 1988. The two players, both Nebraskans, were Maurtice Ivy and Amy Stephens. The 5-foot-9 Ivy joined the Huskers in 1984, after a remarkable career at Omaha Central High School. She was a three-time Super-State basketball player and was chosen by the Lincoln Journal Star as the state's outstanding female high school athlete for 1984. Stephens arrived a year later from Alliance, Neb., where she enjoyed a high school career as much publicized as that of Ivy. Both were prolific scorers. Ivy was the first player to score 2,000 points during her career at Nebraska. She reached that total, appropriately enough, at the Bob Devaney Sports Center on "Maurtice Ivy Night'' in February of 1988. Mayor Bernie Simon had declared Feb. 17, "Maurtice Ivy Day'' in Omaha. A proclamation to that effect was read before the game against Kansas. Ivy received a plaque from Omaha's Lewis and Clark Junior High, and her high school coach announced that her No. 22 jersey was being retired by Omaha Central. Proving her sense of the dramatic was as keen as her shooting eye, Ivy hit a free throw with 23 seconds remaining in the game for point No. 2,001. That point also secured what would be a 76-72 victory. Ivy hit three more free throws before game's end. The win was crucial to Nebraska winning the conference crown and earning an at-large bid in the NCAA Tournament. The season and Ivy's Nebraska career ended at 22-7 with a 100-82 loss at USC in the first round of the regional at Los Angeles. Ivy was chosen as the 1988 Big Eight Player of the Year. Beck was the conference coach of the year, and Kim Harris, a transfer from Bradley, earned Big Eight Newcomer-of-the-Year honors. Ivy, whose career point total reached 2,131, was named to the Big Eight's all-decade women's basketball team for the 1980s. Stephens, who finished just 24 points shy of 2,000, received honorable mention on the conference all-decade team. Karen Jennings was recruited from Persia, Iowa, in 1989, after playing six-on-six, half-court basketball at TriCenter High School in Neola, Iowa, where she averaged an astonishing 59 points per game as a senior. Jennings adapted quickly to five-on-five basketball, leading the Huskers to back-to-back 20-win seasons as a junior and senior. She was voted the Big Eight Player of the Year both seasons, and in 1992-93, after Nebraska earned an NCAA regional bid, was chosen a first-team WBCA All-American. Nebraska finished second in the Big Eight, then lost to Kansas 64-60 in the conference championship game at Salina, Kan., to enter NCAA play with a 22-7 record. The Huskers defeated San Diego in Lincoln, 81-58, before losing to USC, 78-60, in Los Angeles. During a ceremony at halftime of a victory against Iowa State at the Bob Devaney Sports Center in January of 1995, Karen Jennings' No. 51 jersey was retired. Jennings was the first woman basketball player in the history of the University of Nebraska to be so honored. Given Jennings' accomplishments in four seasons as a Husker, the honor was a slam dunk. She was the first woman in school history to be chosen as a first-team basketball All-American. She was awarded the Margaret Wade Trophy after her senior season. Wade was the first women's coach to be inducted into the National Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass. The trophy named in her honor is presented annually by the WBCA to the women's collegiate player voted to be the nation's best. Jennings twice was honored as the Big Eight Conference Player of the Year. She finished as Nebraska's career scoring leader and the second-leading scorer in conference history. She was first-team all-conference three times, and she led the Huskers to the NCAA Tournament in 1993. Jennings distinguished herself in the classroom as well. She was a three-time GTE Academic All-American. She earned Big Eight and NCAA post-graduate scholarships, and her academic success, combined with her athletic accomplishments, earned her recognition as the Big Eight Female Athlete of the Year in 1993. Jennings continued to thrive following her tremendous athletic and academic accomplishments at Nebraska. After
a successful career as a physical therapist in Omaha, she changed gears and thrived in the real estate business in Omaha. Along the way, she contributed thousands of hours of community service and began to raise a family. For her success as a collegiate student-athlete and her accomplishments after her career, Jennings was honored with induction into the CoSIDA Academic All-America Hall of Fame in the summer of 2008. Described as "the best of the best of the best" by longtime CoSIDA Academic All-America Hall of Fame spokesman and award-winning broadcaster Dick Enberg, just over 100 student-athletes all-time, across all-sports have been honored with Hall of Fame induction. "When Dick Enberg called me, it blew me away," Jennings said. "I was stunned, amazed and shocked. When I look at the list of the names of the great people who are in the Academic All-America Hall of Fame, and then realize that I am now on that list with them, I can't believe it. This honor is right at the top of the list for me, right there with the Wade Trophy and the two Academic All-America-of-the-Year selections. What makes this one so different from the rest is that I was not expecting it at all. It is an unbelievable honor." Beck coached Nebraska to the 1996 NCAA Tournament before leaving for the fledgling (and now defunct) American Basketball League after the 1996-97 season. She was replaced by Paul Sanderford, who had taken Western Kentucky to the NCAA Tournament 12 times in 15 years as a coach. His Hilltoppers advanced to the semifinals three times and lost in the 1992 title game. Led by Anna DeForge, the 1997-98 squad tied school records for wins (23) and conference victories (11) and advanced to an NCAA sub-regional at Norfolk, Va., where it defeated New Mexico before bowing out against perennial power Old Dominion. Enthusiasm was such that the Huskers drew what were then the two largest crowds for women's basketball games in school history just six days apart to finish the regular season: 12,181 for a 68-60 win over Iowa State and 11,465 for a 78-53 victory against Colorado. Attendance at the Devaney Center averaged a then-school-record 3,452 per game. The attendance records were short-lived. NU averaged 5,000 fans per game at the Devaney Center in 1998-99, with a high of 13,135 for a 68-67 win over Iowa State. The Nicole Kubik-led Huskers finished 21-12 and advanced to the NCAA Tournament, losing to Kentucky 98-92.
In 1999-2000, the Huskers achieved another school first by advancing to their third consecutive NCAA Tournament, while Kubik capped her career by finishing as the school's No. 6 all-time scorer while ranking in the top 10 in NCAA Division I history with 418 career steals. Nebraska's fan base also continued to grow, as the Huskers ranked 14th nationally in home attendance. In Kubik's final home game on "Senior Night" against Kansas State on Feb. 26, 2000, 13,226 Husker fans gathered to say farewell to her and fellow seniors Brooke Schwartz, Charlie Rogers and Naciska Gilmore. Schwartz, Rogers and Kubik, all Nebraska natives, went on to become the first trio from the same Nebraska recruiting class to each score 1,000 points. Not only did the 2009-10 Huskers shatter every attendance record by averaging 7,390 fans per game, including a Big 12-best 11,383 fans per conference game, the recent crop of Huskers have picked up where previous native Nebraskans left off. Yvonne Turner, the 2006 Nebraska High School Player of the Year, finished her NU career with 1,101 points, while becoming just the sixth guard in Husker history with more than 1,000 points, 200 assists and 200 steals. Dominique Kelley, the 2007 Nebraska High School Player of the Year, joined Turner in the 1,000-point club one year later. Jordan Hooper added a 12th native Nebraskan to the Huskers' list of career 1,000-point scorers in 2012. Hooper, a tall and athletic forward with the speed and power to drive to the basket and the long-range shooting ability to shatter NU's three-point records, reached 1,000 points in 60 career games. She is in posiition to become NU's third 2,000-point, 1,000-rebound player as a senior in 2013-14. Emily Cady, another budding star from the Cornhusker, State, is also on her way toward Nebraska's 1,000-point club after strong freshman and sophomore seasons. Cady enters her junior season in 2013-14 with 634 points and 483 career rebounds. Cady's former Seward High School teammate Hannah Tvrdy is among a three-player freshman class for the Huskers in 2013-14. Tvrdy, a 5-9 guard, will make a place in history by joining her mother Shelly (Block), as the first mother and daughter to play basketball for the Huskers. Tvrdy joins Michigan high school star Allie Havers, a 6-5 center, and Canadian guard Esther Ramacieri among the newest crop of Huskers. With exciting young players as a nucleus and a pair of state of the art homes in the future, Nebraska expects to continue rewriting its women's basketball history.
Yvonne Turner (left) and Dominique Kelley (right) teamed in the Huskers' starting lineup for three seasons (2008-10) after earning Nebraska Gatorade State High School Player-of-the-Year honors. Kelley and Turner combined for more than 2,000 points in the NU lineup while adding tenacious defense on the perimeter.

Nebraska 2,000-Point Scorers The most decorated women's basketball player in school history, Karen Jennings earned the Margaret Wade Trophy as the nation's outstanding player in 1993 and WBCA/Kodak First-Team All-America honors. The 6-2 forward from Persia, Iowa, was a four-year starter and led Nebraska to the second round of the 1993 NCAA Tournament. She was the first Husker to have her jersey retired, and it was formally put on display in the Devaney Center arena in 2006. Along with her honors on the court, Jennings was one of the top student-athletes in school history. She captured CoSIDA Academic All-American-of-the-Year accolades in both 1992 and 1993, along with claiming CoSIDA First-Team Academic All-America honors three times (1991, 1992, 1993). A two-time Big Eight Conference Player of the Year (1992, 1993) and a threetime first-team all-conference selection, Jennings was also the Big Eight Newcomer of the Year in 1990. The captain of Nebraska's All-Century Team announced in February of 2000, Jennings closed her career as the first player in school history to score more than 2,000 points and record 1,000 rebounds. Jennings was also chosen as one of 25 Women of Distinction honored during the Nebraska Athletic Department's Silver Anniversary celebration of 25 years of women's athletics at NU in 1999-2000. Jennings averaged 20.2 points and 8.4 rebounds per game in her career, while ranking first in points (2,405). She also ranks third in career rebounds (1,000), first in field goals made (981), second in field goals attempted (1,726), second in field-goal percentage (.568), fourth in free throws made (426) and tied for fourth in free throws attempted (570). Jennings' 810 points and 25.3 points per game average in 1991-92 rank as the top single-season totals in school history, while her 10.0 rebounds per game allowed her to average a doubledouble as a junior. She also owns NU's single-game scoring mark with 48 points in an 87-82 win at Kansas State on Jan. 21, 1992. In her freshman season, the Huskers struggled to a 10-18 overall record, but with Jennings as a nucleus, NU improved to 17-11 the next season. She set the Husker sophomore record for scoring average at 20.5 points per game (574 points). NU continued to improve in Jennings' record-setting junior campaign, posting a 21-11 mark and advancing to the National Women's Invitational Tournament. In her final season, Jennings helped

Nebraska 2,000-Point Scorers One of the most athletic players in Nebraska history, Maurtice Ivy was the first player in Husker history to surpass the 2,000-point barrier. She joined fellow 2,000-point scorer Karen Jennings as the only Huskers to have their jerseys retired, when Ivy's was honored on-court before NU's win over Kansas on Jan. 16, 2011. Ivy was also one of five players chosen to Nebraska's All-Century Team in February of 2000, and one of the Nebraska Athletic Department's 25 Women of Distinction selected in 1999-2000 as part of the school's silver anniversary of women's athletics at NU. The swing player from Omaha Central High School was the first Husker to earn Big Eight Player-of-theYear honors after leading Nebraska to the Big Eight title in 1988. Ivy also earned a spot on the Big Eight All-Tournament team in 1986-87 and 1987-88. A three-time first-team All-Big Eight pick, Ivy's 19.2 points per game rank second on Nebraska's career charts, while her 778 career rebounds rank sixth on the Huskers' all-time list. She is also tied for sixth in Husker history with 21 career double-doubles, including 10 as a sophomore in 1985-86. Although Ivy was only 5-9, her outstanding leaping ability and excellent court awareness made her a fierce shot blocker, as she ranks fifth on Nebraska's all-time list with 104 blocked shots. Ivy also ranks third in free throws made (431), first in field goals attempted (1,799), second in career field goals made (847), tied for fourth in free throws attempted (570) and 12th in free throw percentage (.756). Ivy's 23.6 points per game average in 1986-87 rank as the second-best single-season scoring average in school history, and her 683 points as a junior rank as the fourth-highest total at Nebraska. Her 153 made free throws and 196 free throws attempted in 1986-87 were also single-season Nebraska records, until Kelsey Griffin and Dominique Kelley both eclipsed those marks for the Huskers in 200910. Ivy produced one of the greatest performances in Husker history when she erupted for 46 points in Nebraska's 100-87 loss to Illinois at Maples Pavilion in Stanford, Calif., on Dec. 30, 1986. It was one of eight 30-point scoring efforts in Ivy's career, including a pair of 35-point performances against Oklahoma and Kansas in 1987. She added the eighth-best rebound total in school history with 19 boards

Nebraska 2,000-Point Scorers One of the most decorated players in Nebraska history, Kelsey Griffin will join her 2,000-point predecessors Karen Jennings and Maurtice Ivy with the honor of having her jersey retired during the 2013-14 season. A banner honoring Griffin's achievements will be permanently hung in the Pinnacle Bank Arena when she formally has her jersey retired on Jan. 29, 2014, the night of the Nebraska-Michigan game. Griffin produced one of the best senior seasons in school history on her way to first-team All-America honors in 2009-10. The 6-2 forward from Eagle River, Alaska, averaged 20.1 points and 10.4 rebounds per game while leading Nebraska to its best season in school history. The 2010 Big 12 Player of the Year, Griffin earned first-team All-America honors from the WBCA, Associated Press, U.S. Basketball Writers Association and the Wooden Award while powering Nebraska to its first NCAA Sweet 16 and its first Big 12 regular-season title. Along the way, Griffin was named a finalist for every major national player-of-the-year award (Wade, Naismith, Wooden, Honda) and became Nebraska's first Senior CLASS Award winner in any sport. She was also named a finalist for the V Foundation Comeback Award and the National Consortium on Academics and Sports Giant Steps Courageous Student-Athlete Award. Griffin, who led Nebraska to its highest national rankings and first NCAA Tournament No. 1 seed, closed her career with a school-record 127 starts, while ranking third in school history with 2,033 points and second with 1,019 rebounds. She joined 1993 Wade Trophy winner Karen Jennings as the only Huskers in history with 2,000 points and 1,000 boards. Griffin also closed her career with a school-record 40 career double-doubles, including 20 as a senior in 2009-10. A three-time first-team All-Big 12 pick, Griffin earned a spot on the Big 12 All-Defensive Team as a senior with single-season career bests of 60 steals, 26 blocks and a remarkable 29 charges drawn. Griffin erupted for a career-high 36 points at Kansas State on March 6 to carry NU to the first perfect season in Big 12 history, helping the Huskers improve to 29-0 overall and 16-0 in the league. She hit 15-of-19 shots from the field against the Wildcats. It was Griffin's fifth 30-point effort of her career, including her fourth as a senior (31 points, 11 rebounds vs. Creighton; 30 points, 14 rebounds vs. No. 5 LSU; 30 points, 13 rebounds at No. 11 Oklahoma). Griffin earned six Big 12 Player-of-the-Week awards as a senior, including four straight to end the season to become the first player in history to win four straight player-of-the-week accolades. She finished with 104 career double-figure scoring efforts, including each of Nebraska's three games in the 2010 NCAA Tournament, when she averaged 18.3 points and 11.7 rebounds per game. After a sensational start as a freshman, Griffin battled illness down the stretch, limiting her playing time during the last half of the 2006 Big 12 season. In 2006-07, she was challenged by a breathing condition with effects similar to asthma. In 2007-
08, Griffin played the entire year with a protective vest after cracking a rib in NU's final exhibition game. Not even the rib injury and breathing condition could stop Griffin from producing a strong Big 12 campaign by averaging 16.8 points and 8.2 rebounds per game. They also couldn't stop her from carrying the Huskers to their first NCAA Tournament victory since 1998. Griffin erupted for 26 points going head-to-head with Xavier's post duo of 6-6 Ta'Shia Phillips and 6-5 Amber Harris to guide NU to a win over the Musketeers in College Park, Md. However, in 2008-09 Griffin was forced to miss the entire season with a foot injury that required a pair of surgeries. She returned to full health before the start of the 2009-10 campaign. Following her collegiate career, Griffin was the No. 3 overall pick in the WNBA Draft by the Minnesota Lynx. She was quickly traded to the Connecticut Sun, where she earned one of five spots on the 2010 WNBA AllRookie Team. Griffin spent the 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 WNBA seasons with the Connecticut Sun. In 2013, Griffin started all 34 games for the Sun, posting career-best averages of 8.7 points and 5.0 rebounds per game. She has played 133 WNBA games with 61 starts. She has averaged 5.0 points and 3.9 boards per game in her career. Griffin played professionally in Hungary in 2010-11 and Israel in 2011-12, before joining the Bendigo Spirit in Australia's WNBL in 2012-13. She led Bendigo to the WNBL title and was named the MVP of the championship series. She played alongside former Husker teammate and Canadian Olympian Chelsea Aubry for Bendigo. Both rejoined Bendigo in 2013-14.
