Huskers Host Fan Appreciation Soup Supper

The Nebraska softball program hosted its annual Soup Supper on Friday night in the Club Level on the West side of Memorial Stadium. The event allowed more than 150 fans the opportunity to engage and get to know members of the 2019 Husker softball team and its coaches. Those in attendance heard from Head Coach Rhonda Revelle on the upcoming softball season and listened to each student-athlete share interesting facts about themselves with the fans. 

Many girls on the team thanked fans for their unending support and for "sticking together in all kinds of weather." Out-of-state student-athletes shared how Nebraska was their "home away from home" and that was due to the support from the fans. One athlete explained that Nebraska invested in her not just as an athlete, but as a student and as a person. Another called Nebraska the "the world's best kept secret." In conclusion, one student-athlete said this season was for the players, the coaches, the alumni, the future Huskers and most importantly, the fans - whose support is second to none. 

In addition, fans got to meet the 2019 Husker players and coaches, get autographs from the team and got the first chance to take home this year's poster and schedule cards.

The Huskers kick off the 2019 season on Feb. 8 against Lamar at the Lone Star College Classic in Houston, Texas.
