Tough-as-nails Nebraska guard battling back again
Allison Weidner is a 5-foot-10 Nebraska guard whose value goes beyond box scores: she’s a scrappy, high-intensity defender and glue-piece leader, but her biggest storyline is durability after three season-ending knee injuries, including a right knee injury in January 2025 that led to a redshirt year for 2025-26. Nebraska lists her as returning for 2026-27 while she finishes her master’s degree, and the Huskers highlight her academic chops and perseverance. If your team wants resilience, toughness, and locker-room credibility, she fits; if you need a healthy, immediate on-court contributor, the injury history is the giant asterisk.
