Charleston, S.C. – After Nebraska (1-2) shutout the College of Charleston (2-1) in Friday night’s season opener, the Huskers dropped the next two games of their season-opening series with the Cougars, including a 7-3 defeat on Sunday afternoon at Patriots Point.
Nebraska’s offense was unable to solve Cougar starter Hayden McCutcheon, who tossed 6.0 shutout innings and struck out eight, while allowing two hits and one walk. Nebraska starter Zack Engelken lasted just 1.1 innings, and allowed four runs on two hits and two walks.
Ben Miller produced three of NU’s six hits on the day and drove in two of its three runs.
