Meet The Mavericks-Jamie Nash
Sep 1, 2009 | Women's Basketball
One of five incoming freshmen for UNO this season, Jamie Nash is the only one who doesn't come to UNO from Nebraska. But the native of Missouri has made a smart choice in deciding to move her life to this great state and become a part of the Maverick women's basketball team.
We asked Nash some questions so we could get to know a little more about her.
