Schulte Signs with SW Baptist

Jacqueline Schulte, the standout guard for Northeast Nodaway, signed a National Letter of Intent to play at Southwest Baptist Friday. She will be the fourth player in Northeast Nodaway girls history to play at the Division II basketball level along with Vicki Schmitz, Linda Schmitz, and Julie Schmitz.

Schulte started all four years of her high school career. She scored over 1,000 points in her career and averaged 18 points per game over her last two years. She made two game-winning shots during the winter season and two more during the summer season. Northeast Nodaway was 21-6 during her junior year and 26-2 during her senior year, finishing the season ranked third in the state behind Jefferson and state champion Montrose. The Bluejays won the Platte Valley Conference title her senior year along with the King City and Northwest Missouri Tournament tournament titles. Northeast also won the King City Tournament in Schulte's junior year on Jacqueline's game-winning shot over DeKalb and the South Harrison Tournament her freshman year.

Jacqueline was named First Team All State this year along with First Team All Platte Valley Conference and All District honors. She also made the second team News-Press squad consisting of small and large school players along with News-Press Player of the Week honors for her performance in the King City Tournament and the KAAN All-Star Squad. She is also a standout in track, where she is undefeated in both the 1600 and 3200 this year.

Southwest Baptist returns most of their players from a squad which won seven out of their last nine games to get into the MIAA Tournament before falling to national powerhouse Washburn in the first round.
