One of the top young athletes in Lincoln has committed to the Nebraska baseball team.

Max Buettenback, a sophomore at Lincoln Southeast, announced Saturday afternoon his intention to play for Will Bolt and the Huskers.

The 6-foot-1, 185-pound Buettenback is the third member of Nebraska's 2023 recruiting class, joining Beatrice's Tucker Timmerman and Texas standout Travis Sykora.

And he'll continue a family tradition of playing high-level sports.
