Emily Cady from Seward, was featured today in the Lincoln Journal Star sports section with her First Impressions of the seven Husker newcomers to the Women's basketball team. The 6'2" Cady has started 100 games during her first 3 years resulting in 75 wins and is very favorably impressed with the incoming teammates. She referred to 6'2" Darrien Washington from California as a "true center". Anya Kalenta is a 6'3" wing transfer along with Freshman guard Jasmine Cincore, Guard/forward Kaylee Page, guard Natalie Romeo, guard Chandler Smith and guard Emily Wood. Cady feels that 6'5" sophomore forward, Allie Havers is the most improved member of the team. Rachel Theriot, Hailie Sample, Tear's Laudermill, Brandi Jeffery and Cady are all charged with taking over the leadership role vacated by the graduation of All-American Jordan Hooper. Cady is one of 3 players in Nebraska history with at least 1,000 points, 700 rebounds, 200 assists and 100 steals, joining Maurtice Ivy and Anna DeForge. Last season she averaged 12.7 points, 9.2 rebounds and 3.1 assists/game and won 2nd team All-American honors. After having seen most of Cady's SHS games where she was a part of an over 100 game winning streak, I continue to enjoy seeing her play.
