Chapter donates $520 to Doorstep

Your donations during this year’s game watches toward Doorstep totaled $520.  Thank you for your generosity showing, as Husker fans, we not only support our university, and its sports teams, but we support great causes.  With the challenges our local charitable organizations are facing, we modify one of our key phrases to state, “There are no fans like Nebraska’s”.

HUSKERS Softball Recap – Corn Nation Road Trip Edition: Michigan 4 HUSKERS 3

Sunset in Ann Arbor What’s worse than “It wasn’t pretty, but it’s a win,”? When it’s a loss. A game which began at 7pm and had crawled into its fourth hour was mercifully ended by the eighth batter in the Michigan order, Ava Costales, who smacked a bomb to left center in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Wolverines a sloppy 4-3 victory – which counts in the standings just as much as the works of art. Neither staff was putting their...

 A “Team” Win for Nebraska Baseball Over Maryland, 6-3

Brett Sears picks up win number seven for the season. Gritty pitching and an aggressive approach at the plate on the bases propel Cornhuskers Game one of three against the Terrapins from Maryland got off to a typical Brett Sears start on a Friday night. The owner of a 6-0 record and a 1.32 ERA started flooding the strike zone with pitches, changing speed and keeping Maryland batters off balance. With Mr. Dependable doing what he does, the question would be whether the Cornhusker offense...

HUSKERS SOFTBALL Weekly: Huskers Bats Vs. Wolverine Arms in Ann Arbor

No leads are considered safe against these ladies in 2024. As Huskers pitching has started locking it down and many of their bats are surging, is it all coming together at thge right time? The Huskers began a two weekend road trip in New Jersey, where they took two out of three from Rutgers, and finish it up this weekend in Ann Arbor, Michigan, with three games against the 2nd place Wolverines, a series with huge conference and NCAA playoff implications for both. The winner...

Friday Flakes: Quarterback Battle Heating Up for Nebraska Football

Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images This spring it is Heinrich Haarberg vs. Dylan Raiola vs. Daniel Kaelin for the starting quarterback position for the upcoming Nebraska football season. It is interesting that Matt Rhule has decided that this spring football season the football team will be split up into three separate “teams” which is equal to the number of scholarship quarterbacks on the roster. It is a great idea because it goes with the thought process that the more competitive reps the better when it...

Late Inning Misfortune Strikes Nebraska Baseball Again Against Creighton

Nebraska Athletics The bullpen woes rear their ugly head once more for the Huskers. The full stop headline walking into the stadium tonight was easy to pick up on. Wind. It was going to change the game one way or another. Usually it whips around the stadium out in the middle of the flood plain, or blows straight in from right field, but tonight it was absolutely howling out to left field, something I hadn’t seen in both direction and intensity since Michigan was in...
