In their first road Big Ten conference competition, the Maryland women's basketball team walked into the Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln, Neb. ready to take on #16 Nebraska in front of a national television audience. Sophomore Shatori Walker-Kimbrough rose to the occasion, scoring a team-high 24 points as the Terps defeated the Cornhuskers 75-47. Her stellar performance has earned her this week's Solomon Eye Associates Terp of the Week honors.

Registering 18 of her 24 points in the first half, Walker-Kimbrough propelled the Terps in a hostile road environment. With the game tied at 27 at the half, Walker-Kimbrough scored eight of Maryland's 11 points and 18 of their first 27 points in the first half.

Walker-Kimbrough and the Terps continued to apply the pressure opening the second half on a 17-5 run. Walker-Kimbrough finished the game shooting 10-13 from the field and 4-6 from the stripe. In addition to 24 points, she grabbed 9 boards for the Terps.
