The baseball club of Nebraska Cornhuskers is still having an incredible season to start. Mason McConnaughey, the starting pitcher, played a major role in keeping that rear intact on Tuesday night. In fact, he played so well that he might soon be competing for a starting position on the weekends
Tuesday night’s 11-5 victory over Omaha gave the Huskers their 14th win versus 5 losses, thanks to a career-high nine strikeouts from McConnaughey. McConnaughey made his first career start for the Huskers, pitching five scoreless innings. The sophomore tossed 12.1 innings with 21 strikeouts against just six walks, giving up no runs in his last five appearances.
The Omaha Mavericks are a shadow of their former selves, and that is undoubtedly part of the reason the Nebraska Cornhuskers cruised to an easy win. The Mavs’ season record now stands at 3-16 after the loss.
Nevertheless, McConnaughey presented his case for a club that needs a few more players to stand up because it has a Friday night starter. Will Bolt, head coach, concurred:
The women’s and men’s basketball teams’ NCAA Tournament matchup against Texas A&M has generated a lot of discussion. The majority of folks are eager to try and give Trev Alberts one last chance. In any case, the former AD of the Nebraska Cornhuskers might get the last laugh.
