HUSKERS SOFTBALL Big 10 Tourney Recap: Indiana 9 Huskers 5

What started as a beautiful day, ended in a season’s conclusion. The Huskers started where they left off but solid Indiana pitching slowed their bats and warrior Sarah Harness finally hit the wall.

The 1st was a tape-measure shot by Billie Andrews which rivaled her...

HUSKERS SOFTBALL B1G Tournament Recap – The Ladies In Red Advance!: Nebraska 11 Minnesota 2

Shake hands, survive and advance. On Day 1, it was all cooking for the Huskers – Billie and the bats exploded and Sarah Harness shut down a tough-hitting Gopher team. As the back of the conference schedule trundled along, Billie Andrews had seemed, while not necessarily slumping, to slide a little – except she really wasn’t. While her average dropped some, her eye was still fine as evidenced by the .443 OBP entering the first game of the Big 10 tournament. There seemed to be...
