Nebraska is coming off a 2-2 showing at the Kia Classic March 13-14. NU suffered upset losses to No. 13 DePaul and unranked Fresno State, but defeated Notre Dame to finish pool play 1-2. In the rain-shortened championship bracket, the Huskers bounced back to defeat tournament host No. 9 Cal State Fullerton, 6-5, in extra innings March 14. With the victory, Nebraska secured its best 20-game start ever.
