After all, the Catamounts knocked the Huskers out of an NCAA baseball tournament regional just last June.
Friday, Western Carolina took advantage of a couple of Nebraska errors and a few too many walks in a 5-2 victory before 941 spectators on a frigid afternoon at Haymarket Park.
With the temperature dipping into the 20s, Husker head coach Darin Erstad said mistakes were going to happen -- and they would be magnified because the cold was bound to hold down run production.
The Huskers committed two errors in the Catamounts' three-run third inning, and two NU pitchers finished with six walks and a pair of wild pitches.
