Kennadi Williams, pinch runner extraordinaire and daughter of Husker basketball coach Amy Williams, came roaring around 3rd base as the 10th run and an 8-run lead for the Huskers which would potentially end the game if Jordy Frahm could shut things down in the bottom of the 6th.

HUSKER SOFTBALL Recap – Cold, Windy and Victorious: #3 NEBRASKA 4 – Minnesota 0
Today’s MVP would probably have to be the fans, both Minnesota’s and Nebraska’s, who chose to brave this game live and in person. I mean, it wasn’t the Ice Bowl, but It was just one of those days with rain/lightning delay, so welcome to damp seats and 39 degree temps with steady winds out of […]
Has the Portal Worked for Nebraska Football?
Nebraska is moving into the dog days of summer, grinding through workouts and getting bodies ready for the torrid fall ahead.

Thursday Flakes: Jackie Robinson Day, Jacobsen Returns and More
There are plenty of things that I enjoy, probably none more than sports. Being involved in them throughout the year growing up made me appreciate everything.

Corn Flakes: Softball Sweep, McIlroy Master x2 and Burning Socks
In many ways, it feels like spring will never get here. Winter hangs on some days and then it goes right to July’s heat. My poor landscape plants don’t know what to think. The loyal ranch dogs are both part Border Collie and they still have most of their winter coat. Taking them on a […]
Ducks Win Another Close One Over Nebraska 5-4
Everybody knew that this was a big series coming in. Anytime you get a couple of ranked teams together in a conference battle, there is going to be a big game feel.
