It took extra innings, and a pair of comebacks but Nebraska bounced back from Thursday’s defeat to double up the Utah Utes 4-2 in the Big Ten/Pac-12 Challenge. Luis Alvarado was solid working six innings of two run baseball. Brison Cronenbold paced the offense going 3-5 with a run batted in.
HUSKERS WIN.

The Huskers loaded the bases via an Alex Henwood single, and then free passes to both Jesse Wilkening and Luke Roskam.
