Freshman Neleigh Gessert is already giving Creighton instant perimeter pop
The Omaha native arrived at Creighton as a highly regarded 2025 recruit and has already flashed a modern wing profile: through 10 games in 2025-26, she is averaging 12.5 points per game while shooting 39.1% from the field, 39.0% from three, and 100% from the foul line.[1][6] Gessert’s appeal goes beyond the box score—she was a Nebraska state champion, a multi-award high school standout, and a two-time BIG EAST Freshman of the Week, suggesting a poised, high-upside scorer who can fit a team that values spacing, confidence, and competitive edge.[3][5][7]
