(Box score to be added following Husker Heat)
On a breezy day where one could hear the sounds of small children slamming into the port-a-john doors behind the bleachers on the third base side after being blown over the rails, the Huskers managed chop out 4 runs while getting a combined shut out from freshman Emmerson Cope and this last weekend’s mound hero, Kaylin Kinney.
The final exclamation point came in the bottom of the 6th when Billie Andrews basically gave those gusting winds the finger by ripping a Shrike missile to right center. What initially looked like a line drive possibly getting to the gap just never came down - or slowed down, for that matter - as it flew over the fence before Billie could take two steps.
