Jordy Frahm delivered a dominant performance in the circle, and the No. 9 Nebraska Cornhuskers downed the Michigan State Spartans, 2-0, on Friday evening at Secchia Stadium in East Lansing, Mich.

The senior right-hander set a season high with 12 strikeouts and allowed only two hits. It was her fifth complete game of the season.

Nebraska extended its win streak to 11 games and improved to 22-5 on the season, including a 4-0 record in Big Ten Conference play.

The victory also served as a milestone for head coach Rhonda Revelle, who clinched her 1,200th career win. All but eight of those wins have come since she became the Huskers' head coach in 1993.

The NU lineup combined for 11 hits but left 13 runners on base. Hannah Camenzind, Jesse Farrell, Alexis Jensen and Hannah Coor each had two hits while Farrell and Camenzind recorded the game's only runs batted in.

Farrell, who missed the Michigan series while in concussion protocol, returned to the lineup Friday and hit her eighth home run of the season. She also doubled.

Nebraska took a 1-0 lead in the third inning when Sammie Bland reached base on a walk and moved to third on a single to centerfield off the bat of Camenzind. Ava Kuszak drove in Bland with a sacrifice fly.

The Huskers doubled the lead in the fifth when Farrell homered to deep left.

Hannah Hawley and Sydney Doloszycki had the two hits for the Spartans.

Jacey Schuler took the loss for Michigan State, allowing one earned run on five hits, two walks, and two strikeouts across 3.0 innings of work. Autumn Behlke pitched 4.0 innings of relief and allowed one earned run on six hits and three free passes.

The Huskers will take on the Spartans again at noon Central time Saturday. The game will be streamed on B1G+ and can be heard across the Huskers Radio Network.
