After a couple of big wins the previous two days, a positive vibe surrounded the Nebraska baseball club as they took the field on what has become known as Championship Sunday. However, wearing the black uniforms appeared to be a bad omen for a dark start for boys from Nebraska on Day 3 of the Cambria Classic taking on defending national champion Mississippi Rebels.
Playing as the visitors, the Cornhuskers were not able to put a number on the board in the top of the first in spite of a shaky start by left-handed starter Xavier Rivas for the Rebs.
