(Due to the doubleheader falling in the same time as the weekly softball podcast, the recap will be abbreviated.)
Bella Bacon may have gotten the high fives - very well-deserved, I might add - after a clutch 2-out double in the bottom of the eighth inning brought home Sammie Bland with the only run of the first game and a 1-0 Huskers win.
However, on a night where Husker bats were mostly silenced by Iowa’s Jalen Adams, it was Kaylin Kinney who matched Adams inning after inning to thwart the Hawkeye’s upset bid by scattering 6 hits and two walks over an 8-inning shutout of Iowa.
