Lincoln – After the Nebraska baseball team took the series opener last night at Hawks Field, the Nicholls State Colonels evened the series with a 7-1 victory on Saturday. Cole Stapler went all 9.0 innings for Nicholls State, his first career complete game and the first by an opposing pitcher this season.
After giving up one run on three hits in the second inning, Stapler allowed four hits the rest of the game and a NU runner got into scoring position just once over the final seven innings. Stapler let his defense work behind him with just one walk and four strikeouts.
