Makenzie Helms planned on being in Iowa this weekend for a recruiting trip to visit the Iowa State women’s basketball program, but plans have changed.
After what Helms said was an amazing trip to Lincoln last weekend for a closer look at the Nebraska program, Helms committed to the Huskers in person before heading home to East Haven, Connecticut.
She’s a 5-foot-8 junior guard at East Haven High School and will join the Huskers in 2019. She’s the first known commit for the Huskers’ 2019 class.
