Stepping out of the state for a moment, the Central women’s basketball team will try for their fourth straight win to begin the 2014-15 season on the road against Nebraska Wesleyan. The two schools met in Pella last year, with the Dutch containing the Prairie Wolves, 64 – 50. Like Central, Nebraska Wesleyan is a young team; there are only two seniors on their varsity roster. In addition to being better at the free throw line (the Dutch were 12 – 23 in Saturday’s win over Waldorf), Coach Chelsea Petersen says she’s looking for her underclassmen to grow just as much mentally as they do physically. Tonight’s game is scheduled for a 7:00 p.m. tip-off inside Snyder Arena.
