Nebraska WBB 62 Rutgers 78 Recap

Scott Bruhn The average score for a Rutgers - Nebraska women’s basketball game is 57-57. This

First Quarter

Issie Bourne is back in the starting lineup, so Nebraska will be back to three “bigs” with Bourne, Bella Cravens and Kate Cain all playing post (Issie will play some wing). Rutgers scored first (3-0) but Cain answered (assisted by Scoggin) to make the score 3-2 Rutgers. After a Rutgers free throw, Issie Bourne hit a field goal to tie the game at 4-4.

Kate Cain blocked a shot but another Rutgers player cleaned it up to regain the lead (6-4) at 6:24. Rutgers’ half court trap is causing issues for Nebraska. The Knights were in control and held a 10-4 lead at the media timeout.
