Cam Ybarra each homered. Kinney finished 2-for-2 with a three-run homer, giving her three home runs in the final two games of the series. Andrews and Ybarra were each 1-for-2 and hit back-to-back home runs in the fourth inning. Senior
Tristen Edwards added two hits of her own, while senior
Rylie Unzicker drove in a pair of runs.
The big performances powered Nebraska to its first-ever four-game sweep in conference play. With the win, the Huskers improved to 20-16 on the season. Haley Ellefson (1-3) took the loss for Maryland, which fell to 14-22 on the season. In the top of the first inning, Nebraska escaped a jam that proved to be Maryland’s only scoring threat. A passed ball on a strikeout and a bloop single that landed just fair put runners on first and second with no outs. Following a force out at third, a single up the middle looked like it might score the game’s first run, but Unzicker threw out the runner at home plate.
