The sophomore guard on the Nebraska men's basketball team looks like a key piece as the Huskers try to break through to the NCAA Tournament. He'll be counted on to be a difference-maker on the court for one of the most anticipated seasons in Husker history.
Off the court this summer, Allen is already making a difference. He has organized a back-to-school drive for Everett Elementary School in Lincoln, and will be on hand Saturday to help collect donations for the upcoming school year.
Everett, located south of downtown Lincoln at 1123 C Street, is a Title I school, meaning it receives federal funding to assist low-income students who attend the school.
