Nebraska Softball Clinches Undefeated Weekend with Wins Over Seattle, Cal

The 10th-ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers clinched an undefeated weekend at the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic with a 9-0 win over the Seattle Redhawks and a 6-0 victory against the California Golden Bears.

The win against Cal closed out NU's stay in Cathedral City, Calif., and improved the Huskers' record to 11-4. It also secured a perfect weekend at the tournament for the first time in program history.

In the five games, NU outscored its opponents 45-3, shutting out three opponents.

Lauren Camenzind's sixth-inning grand slam was the insurance NU was looking for after scoring only one back in the fourth inning. Hannah Camenzind, Ava Kuszak, and Bella Bacon added two hits apiece. Kuszak and Bacon each added an RBI, and Bacon contributed a double.

Alexis Jensen got the start and improved to 5-1 after allowing two hits and striking out six in 4.0 innings. Jordy Frahm pitched the last 3.0 innings, struck out four, walked one, and allowed two hits.

Nebraska struggled to make solid contact against Cal starter Tamya Waiters but took advantage of a free pass to open the scoring in the fourth when Kacie Hoffmann walked and came around to score on a Bacon double.

The Husker opened the floodgates with a five-run sixth that included a grand slam from Lauren Camenzind, extending the lead to 5-0.
