HUSKERS SOFTBALL Recap: Northwestern 6 NEBRASKA 5
| Dillon Galloway Nebraska lost a crusher in the first Northwestern game of the series and the laughably oft-abused “runner left early” appeal played a ridiculous part again. One of the most controversial appeals in college softball the last couple of years is being able to review whether or not a runner left the base early as they are not allowed to do so until the ball leaves the pitcher’s hand. Now fair is fair and it is something which should absolutely be monitored, but what... |

HUSKERS SOFTBALL Weekly: The Last Homestand Is the Last Chance
| Dillon Galloway After being swept by Michigan, NCAA hopes ride a strong performance against 1st place Northwestern. Well, let’s start by saying the following after my Ann Arbor weekend – Michigan really does have a top-notch athletic campus and the people I met were all polite and helpful. Their softball stadium is the first true home field advantage I’ve encountered – they get into it. And just for good measure? Their Saturday game outdrew the men’s baseball game – and the Michigan men were playing... |
What You Need to Know To Attend Nebraska’s 2024 Spring Game
| Photo by Eric Francis/Getty Images This is honestly mostly a cut and paste from the athletic department. I am including it here so as much information as possible it available to you, beloved Husker fans. I didn’t realize tickets went up to $15. Aren’t they normally $10? Maybe they’re preparing for having to pay student athletes salaries. The parking information below is convoluted enough. Maybe you should have a plan before you head out. Maybe it’s just convoluted because I don’t get back to Lincoln... |

Friday Flakes: Deion Sanders Isn’t Really Recruiting Colorado Kids so Nebraska Is Taking Advantage with Latest Commit
| Photo by Sam Hodde/UFL/Getty Images Add Tanner Terch to another list of the type of kids Matt Rhule and his coaching staff are going for in that they are underrecruited and that they fit a certain mold. That mold generally revolves around speed and explosiveness. The coaching staff feel that they cannot teach speed but they can develop kids with speed into good football players. In this case, Tanner Terch is a 3-star wide receiver/defensive back from Littleton, CO. The interesting fact is that neither... |

Add bonus – baseball series against Iowa! If you are going to the spring game, what... |
