Jessica Shepard (Nebraska) back from ACL

[kat0189]

Stats from Nebraska's 2 exhibition games:
29 pts & 12 rbs (17 minutes)
42 pts & 12 rbs (25 minutes)

Just exhibition games, but certainly impressive numbers for a freshman coming back from an ACL tear less than 11 months ago! Good for her!

She was rated #1 post in the class prior to the injury. Nebraska will to be tough this year might surprise and win the conference.

I saw her play pre injury and she was impressive.

She's a scorer and a load inside. She's going to put up a ton of points on that team as the main offensive threat. Be real interesting to see how UConn defends her.

 

[Nuyoika]

They'll do what they normally do to teams who rely on theirs posts scoring for the win. Make it nearly impossible for the guards to get her the ball. Mo and Kia will we on red alert.

Exhibition or not these are very impressive stats coming from a freshman post. I believe the incoming freshman will get better every year.

I picked NB to finish 2nd in the conf on this board, and received a lot of doubt. My pick was based partly on talent and partly on Yori, who I think is a pretty good coach.

I can see them finishing 3rd.... but not ahead of Maryland and Ohio State. But thats why they play the games... we will see

Shepard had 24 points, 13 boards, 3 steals, and 3 assists in just 23 minutes during her regular season debut today. It was against Ark Pine-Bluff but she's pretty darn good.
