No. 24 Nebraska played outstanding defense for 40 minutes but could not hit enough shots to get past No. 5 Duke, falling 53-45 in the NCAA Norfolk Regional semifinal on Sunday afternoon in the 2013 NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament at the Ted Constant Convocation Center.

Sixth-seeded Nebraska, which advanced to its second NCAA Sweet Sixteen in the last four years, ended the season with a 25-9 overall record that included a 12-4 Big Ten mark and a conference runner-up finish. Duke, the ACC champions and the No. 2 seed in the Norfolk Regional, advanced to Tuesday's Elite Eight game with top-seeded Notre Dame. The Blue Devils improved to 33-2 on the year. Notre Dame cruised to a 93-63 win over Kansas in Sunday's first regional semifinal game.

In her final game as a Husker, senior point guard Lindsey Moore led the Huskers with 11 points, five rebounds, six assists and one steal while playing the full 40 minutes. Her six assists pushed her career total to 699 and her season total to 195. Her career total eclipsed NU's long-standing record of 696 career assists set by Meggan Yedsena (1991-94). The 5-9 native of Covington, Wash., also matched Yedsena's single-season school record of 195 in 1991-92.

Moore also finished her career with 1,673 points (11th in school history) and 208 steals (ninth at NU). She started all 132 games in her career, another school record, while her 4,360 minutes played were another NU record. Her 94 career wins are the most by a Husker in history.

Moore was the only Husker to manage double figures against a tough Blue Devil defense.
