Nebraska (21-8, 2-1) returned home Friday to enter a three-game conference series against Minnesota (13-16, 2-3). The No. 21 Huskers started the series off strong, shutting out the Golden Gophers 8-0 in a six-inning win.
Jordyn Bahl (12-3) led the shutout, throwing a complete game and allowing just one hit and two walks. She also struck out seven batters in the process. Her performance in the circle opened the door for Nebraska to take off with the win.
Bahl only finished with one hit in the batter's box but extended her hitting streak to 13 games with a single in the third inning.
