The Huskers are coming into tonight’s game 2-0 so far on the weekend after beating both South Carolina and Hawaii on Friday in run-rule style wins.

Texas A&M comes into tonight’s game ranked #13 in the country and has a 9-4 record so far. They only have one ranked win so far that came on Thursday against #14 Duke. They have lost to Texas Tech who Nebraska beat last weekend.
Nebraska only had one game today after playing two on Friday afternoon. Tomorrow will be another day with a double header scheduled.
The Huskers started off the game with walks thrown to Jordy Frahm and Ava Kushan by Aggies pitcher Sidne Peters. Hannah Camenzind had a fly out while Jesse Farrell struck out. Carlie Mulbach ended the top of the 1st with a pop up out.

The Huskers went 1, 2, and 3 in the top of the 2nd leaving the Aggies to possibly be the first to add to the scoresheet. Nebraska’s bats need to start heating up here soon like they were on Friday.
The Aggies’ first batter of the 2nd, KK Dement, hit the first single of the game while Kelsey Mathis followed it up with another single and send Dement to 2nd. Frahm threw her 2nd strikeout of the inning, but quickly put the Huskers in trouble walking Kennedy Powell to load the bases for the Aggies with 2 outs.
The Huskers got out of the 2nd inning unscathed after what could have been a scary situation. Ariel Kowalewski was struck out to end the inning and send Nebraska back up to bat.

Lauren Camenzind started it off by reaching base on an Aggies fielding error. Jordy Frahm then hit an RBI single to score L. Camenzind, unearned, to get the first run of the game.
Hannah Camenzind followed this up with a double of her own to send Frahm to the 3rd and put her in position to do more damage which she did when Ava Kuszak hit an RBI double to score Frahm and move H. Camenzind to 3rd.
Carlie Mulbach followed with another RBI double to score H. Camenzind and put yet another Husker in scoring position on 3rd base. Kacie Hoffmann ended up hitting an RBI SAC fly to put the Huskers ahead 4-0 heading into the bottom of the 3rd.
Texas A&M looked for a big response when they got up to bat at the bottom of the 3rd, but only got one run back. Mya Perez was walked by Jordy Frahm to start while Tallen Edwards hit a single to move Perez to 2nd base.

Maddie Sauni and Kelsey Mathis struck out and grounded, respectively, to finished the 3rd inning.
The Aggies had a short stint in the field because of the Husker batters going 1, 2, and 3 in the top of the 4th so back to defense the Huskers go to try and keep their 3 run lead.
The Aggies had no response, though, as they too went 3 and out in the bottom of the 4th. Jordy Frahm got her 6th, 7th, and 8th strikeouts of the day to complete the 4th inning.
Going into the 5th inning, there has yet to be a pitching change for either team with Peters totaling 2 errors and 4 strikes heading into the 5th. Frahm had 1 error and 8 strikeouts.

The Aggies only had one hit in the 5th inning and that came as their first batter, Mya Perez, hit a double. Nothing came of this though because Edwards and Sauni struck out while Dement flied out. Micaela Wark was able to get a walk out of Frahm, but was stranded.
The Aggies made their first pitching change of the game going into the 6th inning when Kate Munnerlyn came into the game for Sidne Peters on the mound.
When the Huskers took to the plate to start the 6th inning, Kacie Hoffmann hit a single to 3rd base. Katelyn Caneda came into the game to pinch running for Hoffmann.

Lauren Camenzind would give the Huskers their 2nd out of the inning then Jordy Frahm whacked one over the fence for a 3 RBI home run to score Coor and Caneda and put the Huskers up 8-1. The other half of the Camenzind’s, Hannah, ended the 6th with a fly out to center field.
The Huskers made a pitching change of their own going into the bottom of the 6th when Alexis Jensen came in to relieve Frahm and finish the rest of the game.
Frankie Vrazel tried to get things going for the Aggies hitting a single, but was followed up with a Kennedy Powell strikeout next and gave Jensen her 1st strikeout of the game.

With Kowalewski on 2nd and Mya Perez on 1st, because she was hit by a pitch, the Aggies were in position to put more of a dent into the Husker lead. Alexis Jensen wasn’t worried though as she struck Tallen Edwards out to bring the game to the final inning.
The Huskers weren’t able to add to their run total in the top of the 7th so the Huskers entered the bottom of the 7th relying on Jensen and their defense to end the game with a 6 run advantage.
Texas A&M didn’t help themselves out at all by getting an out right away when Micaela Wark popped up to send the Aggies to 2 more outs on the night. Jensen struck out the Aggies’ final two batters to give the Huskers the 8-2 win and to remain undefeated this weekend so far.

The Huskers will finish out their weekend at the Mary Nutter Classic tomorrow, 2/22, with a game at 11:00am CST against Seattle and then another game, 30 minutes after the conclusion of the first, against Cal at 1:30pm CST.
