The University of Minnesota women's basketball team beat Nebraska 110-73 Thursday night at Williams Arena.

Rachel Banham scored 32 points to lead the Gophers.

Last Sunday, she tied an NCAA record by scoring 60 points in a game against Northwestern.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with Howard Sinker, a digital sports editor for the Star Tribune, about Banham's play lately, and her prospects in the next WNBA draft.
