Women's basketball notes: Huskers seeing benefits of summer trip

The Nebraska women’s basketball team is about five weeks into official practice and is showing that it's a team with a good amount of experience at the college level, and also a group that benefited from playing more this summer.

The Huskers returned each of its top seven scorers from last season: Hannah Whitish, Sam Haiby, Leigha Brown, Taylor Kissinger, Nicea Eliely, Kate Cain and Ashtyn Veerbeek.

Nebraska also benefited in the offseason from taking an international trip, which are on the schedule every four years. As a result, Nebraska got 10 practices before the trip that it wouldn’t have had during a normal summer.
