Roeder Sets Saves Record in Series Opening Win

Evanston, Ill. – The Nebraska baseball team (32-16,  7-9 Big Ten) picked up its first conference road win of the year on Friday afternoon with a 4-2 win over the Northwestern Wildcats ( 14-30, 4-12) at Rocky Miller Park.

After tying Brett Jensen’s Nebraska career record on Tuesday night at Creighton with his 31st career save, senior closer Josh Roeder took sole possession of the record with a perfect ninth inning on Friday for his 32nd career save. Roeder now has 14 saves on the season and needs two more saves to match Jensen’s single season saves record.
