Shields scored 13 of his 31 points in a 23-2 first-half run, as the Huskers bounced back from a four-point overtime loss at Rhode Island on Saturday. Shields finished with 35 points on 12-of-16 shooting, including a career-high four 3-pointers, and added eight rebounds in matching the Pinnacle Bank Arena scoring record set by Terran Petteway last January. The Huskers withstood Omaha s best shot early. The Mavericks connected on eight of their first nine shots from the field and used a 14-1 spurt to take a 23-7 lead just five minutes into the contest. From there, Nebraska took over on both ends of the court, holding UNO without a field goal for 6:36. Petteway, who finished with 20 points and a career-high 12 rebounds, got the run started with a 3-pointer before Shields scored six straight points as part of a 16-0 surge to knot the score at 23 with 9:02 left in the half. Moments later, Shields 3-pointer gave the Huskers its first lead of the evening, as the Huskers ran off seven straight points to take a lead on Petteway s dunk with 6:23 left in the half. Omaha cut the Huskers lead to on a CJ Carter basket with 13:14 left, but Shields took over again, scoring five straight points to push the margin to The Mavericks made one last run, pulling to within with 9:42 left after a Tim Smallwood 3-pointer before the Huskers put the visitors away with an 11-2 surge to make it after a Shields jumper with 6:44 left. Tai Webster joined Shields and Petteway in double figures with 10 points and four assists, as the Huskers shot 53 percent from the floor. NOTES FROM TUESDAY S WIN OVER OMAHA The 16-point comeback matches Nebraska s largest at Pinnacle Bank Arena (also vs. Indiana on Jan. 30, 2014). It also ties the fourth-largest comeback since the season. Shavon Shields finished with a career-high 35 points, topping his previous best of 33 set against Illinois on Feb. 13, Shields also matched the PBA record, which was 35 by Terran Petteway against Minnesota on Jan. 26, Shields 35-point effort matches the highest single-game total in the Big Ten this year, which was done by Penn State s D.J. Newbill in a double OT game against Charlotte on Nov. 20. Shields also had a career high four 3-pointers, topping his previous best of three at Michigan State during his freshman year. Terran Petteway posted his third career double-double with 20 points and 12 rebounds. His 12 rebounds tied a career high set at Iowa on Dec. 31, Nebraska held Omaha to a season-low 67 points after the Mavericks entered the contest averaging 90.3 points per game. UNO did shoot 41 percent, the highest against Nebraska this season. Nebraska was a season-best +14 on the glass, out-rebounding UNO PETTEWAY AND SHIELDS CARRY HUSKER ATTACK Nebraska features two of the Big Ten s most dynamic wing players in juniors Terran Petteway and Shavon Shields. Although we are just four games into the season, the pair has been a prolific scoring duo, combining for more than 44 points per game.

5 DEFENSE KEYS HUSKER TURNAROUND Nebraska s turnaround last year was keyed by an emphasis on the defensive end of the court. The Huskers entered Big Ten play last in field goal defense and eighth in scoring defense, but dramatically improved during conference action. Over the final 16 games of the , NU held 10 opponents below 40 percent shooting from the field, including eight straight foes in one stretch. The eight consecutive foes under 40 percent was the longest streak by a Husker defense in at least four decades. The Huskers finished Big Ten play second in conference games in field goal percentage (.415) and third in scoring defense (63.4). In , the Huskers have continued to shine on the defensive end, holding its first three opponents to a combined 36 percent shooting and 62.5 points per game. Nebraska has been stout at home over the last two seasons, as only three teams have shot over 45 percent against the Huskers, while 11 of 19 opponents have been held to under 40 percent shooting. Northern Kentucky shot just 36 percent while Central Arkansas was held to 33 percent. Nebraska is 24-6 over the past three seasons when holding opponents to under 40 percent shooting. Nebraska climbed from 102nd in defensive efficiency to 25th in and is currently 21st entering Friday s game with Tennessee Martin. PETTEWAY LEADS HUSKER RETURNEES Junior wing Terran Petteway comes into as one of the nation s premier players. The 6-foot-6 junior wing has been featured on several lists of top players in college basketball and was chosen secondteam preseason All-American by The Sporting News and CBSSports.com. As a sophomore, he led the Big Ten in scoring at 18.1 points per game while adding 4.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists per contest, while starting all 32 contests. Not only did he lead the Huskers in scoring, but also was second on the team in rebounding and third in assists. Early on, Petteway has been a force for the Huskers, ranking third in the Big Ten in scoring at 20.8 points per game, along with 6.0 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game. In addition to scoring, he is sixth in both 3-pointers per game and blocked shots. Petteway is the only guard or forward in the top seven in blocked shots. He opened the season with the best long-distance shooting of his career, hitting 6-of-9 from 3-point range on his way to scoring a gamehigh 25 points against Northern Kentucky on Nov. 15. He followed up with a 23-point effort against Central Arkansas and collected his third career double double with 20 points and a career-high 12 rebounds against Omaha. Petteway has been in double figures in 15 consecutive games dating back to last year and 34 of 36 career games at Nebraska. He has a pair of 20-point games in , including a season-high 25 points against Northern Kentucky, and has 14 career games at NU with 20 or more points. With 662 points over the last two years at Nebraska, he is now 12 points away from qualifying for Nebraka s career scoring list. His 18.4 career points per game average would rank second to Dave Hoppen all-time at Nebraska. Petteway looks to become the first player since Ohio State s Evan Turner ( ) to lead the Big Ten in scoring in consecutive seasons. Over the last 30 years, only three players - Turner, Purdue s Glenn Robinson ( ) and Michigan s Glen Rice ( ) - have accomplished the feat.

Nebraska has had eight All-Americans in program history, most recently Carl McPipe during the season. Last season, Petteway became the first player to earn unanimous first-team all-conference honors since Venson Hamilton in 1999, and also earned first-team all-district honors by the NABC (coaches) and the U.S. Basketball Writers Association (writers).

SHIELDS KEYS HUSKER ATTACK While Petteway has become one of the best players in the Big Ten last season, junior Shavon Shields may be one of the most underrated players in the Big Ten. The 6-foot-7 wing started all 32 games and averaged 12.8 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game to earn honorable-mention All-Big Ten honors from the coaches and media. As a sophomore, Shields was second on the team in scoring and led Nebraska in rebounding. This season, Shields has continued his emergence, averaging 23.5 points on 68 percent shooting and 8.0 rebounds per game. He is second in the Big Ten in scoring, fifth in field goal percentage and sixth in rebounding entering Friday s game. Shields has had back-to-back strong efforts, scoring 25 points and grabbing nine rebounds in the overtime loss to Rhode Island on Saturday before totaling a career high 35 points in Tuesday s win over Omaha. Over his last nine games dating back to last year, Shields is averaging 20.2 points per game on 57 percent shooting along with 7.1 rebounds per game. His 35 point effort against Omaha tied for the most in a Big Ten game this year and ties for 10th in school history. It was Shields' second career 30-point game, as he had 33 against Illinois in Collected his fourth career double-double against Central Arkansas with 16 points - all in the first half - and 11 rebounds while matching his career best with four assists. Scored 18 points on just four field goal attempts, hitting all four shots from the floor while going 10-of-10 from the charity stripe. It was the third time in his career he has gone 10-of-10 or better from the foul line in a game. Shields is one of four returnees to rank in the top 15 in both scoring and rebounding in Big Ten play last year, joining Frank Kaminsky (Wisconsin), Rayvonte Rice (Illinois) and Aaron White (Iowa). Has started a team-high 55 consecutive games dating back to his freshman year. Last season, Shields played some of his best basketball since moving to his natural wing position in February, averaging 15.7 points and 6.0 rebounds per game while shooting 49 percent from the field over NU s last 12 contests. The Huskers went 8-4 over that stretch. Shields earned Big Ten Co-Player of the Week for his efforts during the last week of the season, averaging 21.5 points per game in wins over Indiana and Wisconsin, as he had 26 points against the ninth-ranked Badgers and 17 points and eight rebounds in the win at Indiana. His best offensive effort came against Illinois on Feb. 12, when he scored a careerhigh 33 points, hitting 8-of-12 shots from the field and all 15 of his free throws. Shields tied Nebraska s single-game record for free throws without a miss and became only the 11th Big Ten player to hit at least 15 free throws without a miss and the first since HUSKERS AMONG THE RANKED For the first time in two decades, the Huskers were in the national polls, as Nebraska opened the season ranked 21st in both the AP and Coaches poll. It marked the first time since Jan. 2, 1995, that Nebraska is nationally ranked and just the second time in AP poll history and first since 1992 that the Huskers opened the season as a ranked team. Nebraska is now (.667) when ranked all-time in program history following Saturday s overtime loss at Rhode Island, as the Huskers fell out of the poll on Monday. In addition to the AP and Coaches polls, other publications have taken notice of the Huskers as well. While the Big Ten only releases the top three teams in its preseason poll (Wisconsin, Ohio State and Michigan State), the league s beat writers do an informal poll where the Huskers were picked fourth. The Huskers were picked 12th (among 12 teams at the time) in the preseason in both and , and finished 10th and fourth, respectively. In other preseason publications, Nebraska was picked as high as second (Athlon) to as low as sixth (ESPN). PITCHFORD POSES PROBLEMS FOR OPPONENTS Junior forward Walter Pitchford became one of the focal points to the Huskers attack in Big Ten play last season. The 6-foot- 10, 237-pounder is one of the toughest matchups in college basketball, as he is a skilled shooter who hit 41 percent from 3-point range. Last season, Pitchford averaged 9.3 points and 4.7 rebounds per game while starting 31 games. An outstanding athlete with a 42-inch vertical leap, Pitchford played some of his best basketball of the season over the Huskers second-half surge, averaging 11.0 points per game on 53 percent shooting over the last 14 games.

Pitchford sparked NU s win at Indiana with 17 points and nine rebounds, as he scored the Huskers first nine points and then delivered a 3-pointer with 1:55 left to give Nebraska a four-point cushion. Pitchford has had a slow start offensively, averaging just 3.5 points per game, but has found other ways to make an impact.

7 OLD MAN RIVERS Senior forward David Rivers has been through a lot during his Nebraska career. The 6-foot-7 forward signed when Nebraska was still a member of the Big 12 Conference back in the fall of 2010, and has quietly developed during the last three seasons under Tim Miles. This season, Rivers is averaging 6.5 points per game while 75 percent from the field. He chimed in with a season-high 12 points in the season opener against Northern Kentucky on Nov. 16. Rivers, who averaged 3.0 points per game as a senior, has raised his shooting percentage during each of his last three seasons. CHARTING RIVERS Year Pct NEBRASKA BASKETBALL 7 7 POINT GUARD BY COMMITTEE The Huskers have relied on a three-man rotation at the point guard spot early in The trio of Tai Webster, Benny Parker and Tarin Smith have combined for 18.3 points, 6.3 assists and 4.8 rebounds. Webster, who has started the first three games, has seen his scoring average climb jump from 3.9 points to 8.3 points per game, while averaging 1.8 steals per game. Parker, who averaged just 2.6 points over his first two years, is at 6.0 points per game while leading the Huskers in both assists and steals. Smith is chipping in 4.0 points and 1.8 assists per game while not committing a turnover in his 63 minutes of action this season. NEW FACES IN HUSKERS ROTATION Despite having five returning starters and seven of the top eight players back from a year ago (counting Leslee Smith, who looks to return from knee surgery during Big Ten play), a pair of newcomers - senior Moses Abraham and freshman Tarin Smith - have found their way into the Huskers rotation. Abraham is a graduate transfer who spent the past four years at Georgetown. He provided physicality in the wake of Leslee Smith s injury and is the first post player off the bench. He is averaging 6.3 rebounds and 1.8 points per game, while playing just 13.5 minutes per game. He has grabbed a rebound every 2.1 minutes he has been on the floor. Against Omaha, he had seven rebounds and a pair of blocked shots in a season-high 17 minutes. He also grabbed seven rebounds and blocked a shot in 15 minutes at Rhode Island and had six rebounds in just 10 minutes of work against Central Arkansas. Last year, Abraham averaged 1.9 points and 2.8 rebounds per game while ranking second on the team with 23 blocked shots. The 6-foot-9, 252-pound forward earned his degree from Georgetown in May and has one year of eligibility remaining. He is the first graduate transfer the Huskers have added since the rule went into effect. Smith has become one of the Huskers first guards off the bench during the preseason and averages 4.0 points and 1.8 assists per game. His best game came against Northern Kentucky when he had six points and an assist in 16 minutes of work and he had three points and three assists in the loss at Rhode Island. Smith was a two-year starter at St. Anthony (N.J.) High School, one of the premier high school basketball programs in the country playing for Hall of Fame Coach Bob Hurley. As a senior, he was a first-team all-state pick by the AP and a third-team honoree by the Newark Star-Ledger, as he averaged 15 points, four rebounds and four assists per game, as St. Anthony finished with a 25-5 record and a state runner-up finish. Another freshman who could see more action as the year progresses is post player Jake Hammond. He is a 6-foot- 10, 230-pound forward who averaged 26.2 points, 14.8 rebounds, 5.7 blocks and 3.1 steals per game as a senior at Comanche (Okla.) High School. He was rated as the No. 2 prospect in the state of Oklahoma by both ESPN.com and 247Sports as a senior, and was considered one of the top 150 seniors in the country by Hoop Scoop. In addition, two other Husker newcomers will not suit up this season, as freshman B.J. Day will not play after suffering a torn ACL in practice in October, while Andrew White is sitting out the season after transferring from Kansas. White, who was a top-50 recruit coming out of high school, played two seasons at Kansas, playing behind NBA lottery picks Andrew Wiggins (2014) and Ben McLemore (2013). White was the state player of the year in Virginia in 2012, averaging 22.9 points and 10 rebounds per game as a senior. He will have two years of eligibility remaining. HOW THE HUSKERS SPENT THE SUMMER Several Husker basketball players were busy over the summer working on their game. In addition to the players who were in Lincoln, several others represented the program and their respective home countries. Tai Webster: Played for the New Zealand National Team over the summer, including the FIBA World Cup in Spain. He joined the team for its pre-tournament tour, playing in 12 of 13 games before the FIBA World Cup, where he helped New Zealand reach the round of 16. He averaged 5.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game despite being the fourth-youngest player in the tournament, finishing second among all teenagers in both points per game and assists per game. Webster had eight points, seven rebounds and three assists in a win over the Ukraine and added seven points and five rebounds against Turkey. Against Team USA, he had four points and a pair of blocked shots in 15 minutes against the eventual gold medalists. Leslee Smith: Represented the British Virgin Islands at the 2014 FIBA Caribbean Basketball Championships in Tortola, British Virgin Islands. Smith averaged 7.6 points and 4.3 rebounds per game before suffering a torn left ACL on July 3 against the Virgin Islands. The British Virgin Islands was 2-1 with Smith in action and went winless without the 6-foot-8 forward. Smith is hoping to return to action in time for Big Ten Conference action in January. Terran Petteway: Competed at the Kevin Durant Skills Academy, which featured the top 15 collegiate wing players in the country, and served as a camp counselor at the adidas Nations camp. Shavon Shields: Joined Petteway as a camp counselor at the adidas Nations camp, an event which featured high school, college and professional players.
