Baseball begins!
A few familiar names stand ready to take the ball on the mound this season, looking to pick up where the pitching staff left off last year. Gone are weekend starters Cade Povich and Chance Hroch , as well as lights out closer, Big Ten Player of the Year, First Team All-American and John Olerud Two Way Player of the Year, Spencer Schwellenbach.
Gone are a number of wins and a number of saves, but the cupboard is certainly not bare.
At least three returning pitchers have experience starting on the weekend for the Cornhuskers, and they will be joined by a transfer with weekend experience.
