'It was incredible': Sam Haiby made big three-pointer during overtime win for Nebraska women

Sophomore guard Sam Haiby made a game-tying three-pointer with 4 seconds left in regulation to send the Nebraska women’s basketball game against Missouri to overtime, and the Huskers went on to win 90-85 Sunday in Columbia, Missouri.

Haiby led the Huskers with a career-high 28 points. Early in the game she was aggressive getting layups, and scored Nebraska’s first eight point of the game. Haiby finished with three three-pointers.

Leigha Brown added 24 points for Nebraska, which won both games in the first week of the season. It was a good win for the Huskers against a Missouri team that won 10 more games than Nebraska last season.
