Huskers Shoot Past Owls in 88-74 Win

Alonzo Verge Jr. scored 16 points and dished career-high 12 assists, as Nebraska broke out of a shooting slump with an 88-74 win over Kennesaw State on Wednesday night at Pinnacle Bank Arena.

Verge posted his fourth double-double of the season, guiding a Husker offense that shot 53 percent from the field, including a season-high 15 3-pointers, and over 51 percent from long distance. Verge's 12 assists was not only a career high but the most by any Big Ten player this season.

Verge was one of four Huskers to finish in double figures.
