Tragic news out of the athletic department this evening. Nebraska assistant soccer coach Peter Underwood was killed Saturday in a car accident near Atlantic, Iowa while on a recruiting trip. Underwood, 31, leaves behind his wife Austin, daughter Lyla and son Jude.
His biography from the NU athletic department:
Underwood just completed his fourth season with the Nebraska women's soccer program, serving the last two as a full-time coach and the previous two as a volunteer assistant. Underwood helped the Huskers to the Big Ten Conference regular-season and tournament titles in 2013, as Nebraska posted a 19-4-1 record and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
