Nebraska sharpshooter Natalie Romeo to transfer to UW women’s basketball team

Natalie Romeo, who set a Nebraska record with 104 three-pointers made last season, plans to transfer to the Washington women’s basketball team for her senior season, she told The Seattle Times.

There’s a chance her former AAU teammate, prep All-American Sabrina Ionescu, might soon be following her to Seattle.

A 5-foot-7 guard from Martinez, Calif., Romeo made visits to UW, Oregon State and Arizona State over the past few weeks. She called Huskies coach Mike Neighbors on Sunday night and informed him of her decision to transfer to UW.

“He seemed very happy,” Romeo said.
