High Flyer

Tied with former Newcastle standout Tonya Kneifl for 14th on the All-Time Nebraska Girls scoring chart with 1,987 points, Allison Weidner made history when she guided top-ranked Humphrey St. Francis to an opening round conquest of Riverside in the Goldenrod Conference Basketball Tournament last month.

The Flyer senior scored 17 points in the 89-16 triumph over the Chargers to become the 13th girl basketball player in Nebraska to eclipse 2,000 points for her career. Following the outburst, during St. Francis’ 13th win of the season, Weidner stood at 2,004 points, moving past Kneifl and Amanda Hansen of West Point-Beemer who finished her career with 1,990 points.
