Nebraska suffered a 9-5 setback to Creighton on Tuesday afternoon at Hawks Field at Haymarket Park.

Nebraska (12-16) scored five runs on nine hits, while Creighton (17-7) totaled nine runs and 12 hits.

Riley Silva led the Big Red at the plate, going 3-for-5 with two RBI. Max Buettenback was 2-for-3 with a run scored, while Gabe Swansen, Hogan Helligso and Cael Frost had one hit and an RBI each.

TJ Coats recorded one out in the start, allowing three runs on two hits and a walk. Jalen Worthley pitched three innings in relief, surrendering one run on three hits. Drew Christo tossed 2.2 shutout innings, while Colin Nowaczyk was tagged with the loss after giving up two runs on two hits.

Ryan Harrahill dealt a pair of scoreless frames, followed by Pryce Bender and Luke Broderick combining to pitch the final inning.

Creighton raced out to a 3-0 lead in the top of the first behind a pair of hits. The Bluejays had the bases loaded with one out after a leadoff double down the right-field line and a one-out hit batter and walk.

Back-to-back bases-loaded walks scored the first two runs, while an RBI single to right-center field grew the lead to three in the first.

The Husker offense locked the game at three in the second with a trio of hits in the bottom of the second. Dylan Carey was hit by the pitch to begin the inning, while Buettenback’s one-out single to right put runners on first and second.

Helligso got the Big Red on the board with an RBI single to center that brought home Carey from second. Case Sanderson drew a walk to load the bases with two outs, before Silva laced a two-RBI single to right-center field to even the game at three.

Creighton took a 4-3 lead in the top of the fourth with back-to-back singles after a one-out walk.

Cayden Brumbaugh reached on a fielder’s choice in the bottom of the fifth and moved to second on a groundout to first. The Big Red had runners on first and second with two outs after the Bluejays intentionally walked Carey. Swansen stepped up to the plate and ripped a pinch-hit RBI double to left field, scoring Brumbaugh and tying the game at four.

A leadoff walk and double to right field in the top of the seventh set up the go-ahead two-RBI single to left-center field for the Bluejays.

Carey was plunked to open the bottom of the eighth, and Buettenback singled to left field to put runners on first and second with one out. Frost came to the plate in a pinch-hitting role and lined an RBI double down the right-field line to bring the Big Red within a run.

Trailing 6-5 with runners on second and third and one out, the next two Huskers were retired to maintain CU’s lead going into the ninth inning.

The Bluejays tacked on three runs on three hits in the top of the ninth to extend the lead to 9-5. A leadoff double and wild pitch on strike three had runners on first and third, before a two-RBI triple down the right-field line stretched the lead to 8-5. CU added one more with a two-out RBI single to right field that made it a 9-5 game heading into the bottom of the ninth.

The Husker offense was retired in order in the bottom of the ninth to clinch Creighton’s 9-5 win on Tuesday afternoon.

Nebraska returns to action tomorrow, as the Huskers travel to Omaha to take on the Mavericks at Tal Anderson Field. First pitch between the Big Red and Omaha is set for 6 p.m.

NSAA Area Spring Sports scores from 4-1

By: Paxton Ritchie CSC Sports Information Director

CHADRON, Neb. – Chadron State athletics has officially announced its football schedule for the upcoming 2025 season, which features four home games, a Division I opponent and a Week 8 bye.

The Eagles' home dates at Elliott Field at Don Beebe Stadium will be September 13 at (vs. Black Hills State), September 27 (vs. Colorado Mesa), October 11 (vs. New Mexico Highlands) and November 8 (vs. Western Colorado). CSC's home opener against Black Hills State will kick off at 6 p.m., with the other three home games starting at 1 p.m.

For the second consecutive season, Chadron State will begin the season early with a "Week 0" game. This year, the Eagles will open on the road against the University of Northern Colorado, a Division I (FCS) opponent which currently competes in the Big Sky Conference, on Saturday, August 30. 

The following Saturday, September 6, Chadron State will complete its nonconference schedule by traveling to take on in-state rivals Nebraska Kearney. The two schools will compete once again for the "Good Life Trophy," a traveling trophy that was introduced last season for what is scheduled to be a yearly renewed rivalry between the schools.

Chadron State's home opener and Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference opener will be Saturday, September 13 against Black Hills State. The Eagles will play in consecutive weeks for the first eight games of the season prior to having a bye week during the week of Saturday, October 26. 

The September 27 game against Colorado Mesa will serve as both homecoming and the Eagles' Hall of Fame weekend. Senior Day will take place during CSC's home finale against Western Colorado on November 8.

Highlights of the road RMAC games on CSC's schedule include the annual Eagle-Rock Trophy showdown with South Dakota Mines in Rapid City on November 1 and the regular season finale at defending RMAC champions CSU Pueblo on November 15. 

Chadron State is coming off a competitive 3-8 season where the Eagles lost five games by seven points or fewer, including two one-score losses to nationally ranked opponents. 

The Eagles are set to return quarterback DJ Ralph, who battled injuries but was named the RMAC Offensive Player of the Week after one of the five games he started for CSC last season. Key leaders from a defensive unit that ranked second in the RMAC in total defense and third in scoring defense also return, including All-Region safety Dax Yeradi and linebacker Logan O'Brien. Chadron State also welcomed a class of 38 signees on National Signing Day this February.

All Eagle games, home and away, will be broadcast live with a video feed on the RMAC Network and on the radio on Double Q County 97.5/105.9 FM with Dave Collins. Further information on tickets will be available soon.

Chadron State began spring practice this past Wednesday. The Eagles' intrasquad spring game will take place on Friday, April 25.

Chadron State reveals official football schedule for 2025

LINCOLN&nbsp;— Jared Crick, the former Nebraska defensive line star who played five seasons in the NFL, has taken the Cozad High School head football coach job.&nbsp;

"I am proud and humbled to be announced as the Head Football Coach of my alma mater, to which I owe a great deal of credit and appreciation to the many that have come before me," Crick said in a statement. "Great people, who've shaped my life, resulting in the responsibility I now have before me as the leader of this program."

The 35-year-old was a two-time All-Big 12 defensive tackle at Nebraska and played on NU's first Big Ten team in 2011, donning a Sports Illustrated cover before that season. The Houston Texans selected him in the fourth round of the 2012 NFL Draft. He had 199 career tackles in five seasons, injured his back in 2017 training camp, and did not play again.&nbsp;

Knights Women's Basketball land second recruit of 2025-2026 season

The No. 20 Nebraska softball team enjoyed a five-run sixth inning and downed the Purdue Boilermakers 6-0 on Sunday night at Bowlin Stadium.&nbsp;

The Huskers moved to 26-8 on the season with a 6-1 record in Big Ten competition, while Purdue fell to 17-15 (2-7 Big Ten).&nbsp;

A one-out single, followed by a fielder’s choice, had a runner on first with two outs for USC in the bottom of the second. The lead doubled to two for the Trojans with an RBI double down the left-field line.

USC capitalized on a one-out throwing error from the Huskers to grow the lead to four in the bottom of the third.

The NU offense threatened in the top of the fifth when singles by Jesske and Sanderson had runners on first and third with two outs, but the Big Red couldn’t plate their first run and cut into the deficit.

Back-to-back solo homers over the left-field fence to open the bottom of the sixth extended the Trojans’ lead to six, while a one-out solo homer in the bottom of the seventh had USC out front 7-0 through seven innings.

The Huskers plated their lone run of the afternoon in the top of the eighth inning. Riley Silva was plunked to begin the frame, and Sanderson singled through the right side to put runners on first and third with no outs.

The Supernovas come off one of the most impressive weekends in franchise history, pulling off their second-ever reverse over Indy on March 13 before beating the Orlando Valkyries for the first time in 2025 with a four-set win on March 15. The two road wins kept Omaha’s place at the top of the PVF standings while matching a franchise-best four-match winning streak. Plus, it was the sixth-consecutive road victory for the Supernovas, which extends the franchise record.&nbsp;

Indy hopes to earn its first-ever win over Omaha after being reversed swept by the Supernovas last week at the Fishers Event Center. The Ignite are 7-2 all-time at home with the only two losses being to Omaha. Indy comes to CHI following a five-set win over the last-place Columbus Fury Thursday night. Setter Sydney Hilley dished out 68 assists in a balanced offensive attack as five different players reached double-digit kills. Reigning PVF Player of the Week Azhani Tealer spearheaded that effort with 17 kills while Carly Skjodt and Lydia Martyn each added 16.&nbsp;

Season Series:&nbsp;Fourth of four meetings, two of two at CHI Health&nbsp;Center&nbsp;

All-Time Series:&nbsp;Omaha leads 3-0 (March 13, 2025, last matchup, 3-2 Omaha).&nbsp;&nbsp;

Supernovas outside hitter&nbsp;Brooke Nuneviller&nbsp;eclipsed the 500-kill mark in her Supernovas career on 3/13 at Indy and now sits with a total of 529 kills in her two seasons with Omaha. With 18 digs on Saturday versus the Valkyries, she became the first player in PVF history to achieve 500 kills and 500 digs. Setter Natalia Valentín-Anderson also reached a milestone against Indy, recording her 1,000th career assist with the franchise. Her Omaha career total stands at 1,003. Middle blocker Kaitlyn Hord is three blocks away from becoming the third player in PVF history to record 100 stuffs. She recorded 42 blocks in 72 sets last season in Columbus.&nbsp;

The Supernovas have the biggest home court advantage in pro volleyball, but they've also been mighty on the road. That includes the league's best road record at 8-2. Omaha and Orlando (4-3) are the only teams in the PVF to have a road record at .500 or above. The Supernovas have won six-straight road matches including four straight overall which are both franchise records.&nbsp;

Omaha middle blocker&nbsp;Kaitlyn Hord&nbsp;has been the premier blocker in the PVF so far in the 2025 season. The former Husker and Nittany Lion leads the league in both total blocks (55) and blocks per set with a 0.96 mark. Hord's seven blocks in the five-set win over the Atlanta Vibe on opening night set a Supernovas single-match record. She is also one of five players in the PVF to record seven or more blocks in a match this season. The Kentucky native also sits third in hitting percentage with a .341 clip through 173 attacks with 69 kills and only 10 errors, which is fewest among middle blockers.&nbsp;

 <li>Trailing 0-2 to Indy last Thursday, head coach&nbsp;Laura "Bird" Kuhn&nbsp;went to the bench for a trio of new players in outside hitter&nbsp;Ally Batenhorst, setter&nbsp;Mac Podraza&nbsp;and opposite&nbsp;Kelsie Payne. The move ultimately sparked the franchise's second-ever reverse sweep as well as a four-set win over Orlando two nights later.&nbsp;</li><li>Batenhorst was the shining star of the three, pounding 16 kills on a .282 clip with eight digs against Indy. She improved that performance against the Valkyries pouring in a career-high 24 points on 22 kills (.362), one block and one ace alongside eight more digs.&nbsp;</li><li>In total, the rookie attacker finished with 40 points (5.0 P/S), 38 kills (4.75 K/S), .326 hitting percentage 16 digs (2.0 D/S), one block, one ace and a lone assist across eight sets.&nbsp;</li><li>Podraza averaged 9.75 assists per set including a 37-assist, four-dig outing against Indy. The cherry on top was leading the offense to a .455 hitting percentage in the decisive fifth set against the Ignite. She added a double-double against Orlando with 41 assists and 10 digs while also securing the match-ending block.&nbsp;</li><li>Payne tallied a total of 17 kills, 10 digs, two blocks and one ace. She was mighty against Indy with eight kills on a .421 clip, while adding a season-best nine kills against Orlando.&nbsp;</li>
 </ul>Nuneviller Makes History&nbsp;Supernovas outside hitter&nbsp;Brooke Nuneviller&nbsp;eclipsed the 500-kill mark in her Supernovas career on 3/13 at Indy and now sits with a total of 529 kills in her two seasons with Omaha. With 18 digs on Saturday versus the Valkyries, she became the first player in PVF history to achieve 500 kills and 500 digs. Setter Natalia Valentín-Anderson also reached a milestone against Indy, recording her 1,000th career assist with the franchise. Her Omaha career total stands at 1,003. Middle blocker Kaitlyn Hord is three blocks away from becoming the third player in PVF history to record 100 stuffs. She recorded 42 blocks in 72 sets last season in Columbus.&nbsp;The Dig Patrol&nbsp;<ul>
 <li>The Supernovas have been one of the best&nbsp;defensive teams in the league as they currently sit fifth in the PVF in digs per set (16.34) and eighth in total digs (948). However, Omaha has played the fewest number of sets in the league with 58 which is due in part to a league-leading seven sweeps.&nbsp;</li><li>Libero&nbsp;Camila Gómez&nbsp;leads that effort with a team-high 222 digs (3rd in PVF) and 3.83 per set (3rd). Her 31 digs against Atlanta in the season opener broke a single-match franchise record. That total is tied for the second-most digs recorded in a single match in PVF history.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Nuneviller, who is a former libero, is right behind her teammate with 213 digs (fourth in PVF) and 3.67 per set (4th). She leads all PVF attackers in both categories.&nbsp;</li>
 </ul>Road Warriors&nbsp;The Supernovas have the biggest home court advantage in pro volleyball, but they've also been mighty on the road. That includes the league's best road record at 8-2. Omaha and Orlando (4-3) are the only teams in the PVF to have a road record at .500 or above. The Supernovas have won six-straight road matches including four straight overall which are both franchise records.&nbsp;Offensive Blastoff&nbsp;<ul>
 <li>The Omaha Supernovas offense has rounded into form with a .243 team hitting percentage — second in the PVF.&nbsp;</li><li>Omaha has posted hitting percentages of .250 or above in 10 of the 16 matches this season. The Supernovas offense reached that mark only nine times across the entire 2024 season.</li><li>There's only been seven times in franchise history that the Supernovas have recorded a team hitting percentage of .300 or above wth three of those coming in the 2025 season.</li>
 </ul>Hording the Net&nbsp;Omaha middle blocker&nbsp;Kaitlyn Hord&nbsp;has been the premier blocker in the PVF so far in the 2025 season. The former Husker and Nittany Lion leads the league in both total blocks (55) and blocks per set with a 0.96 mark. Hord's seven blocks in the five-set win over the Atlanta Vibe on opening night set a Supernovas single-match record. She is also one of five players in the PVF to record seven or more blocks in a match this season. The Kentucky native also sits third in hitting percentage with a .341 clip through 173 attacks with 69 kills and only 10 errors, which is fewest among middle blockers.&nbsp;...Every match this season can be heard on the&nbsp;Supernovas Radio Network, led by its flagship station&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://db9xbvgbb.cc.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0013iWU0qx0sbMGUhec8f45OWs_r7SObVg7o2TGzRu9Rm_5CaGjblareid63wE8Xnjs9NGo0OgBTuHUpof-EQncNc2ewMVOnrdFG6utAx3RgYAFJnrFYyCCaTDZpXklYmO9vFUVT83OtpLbCHD-arcYRkaHgZ3yBmLM&amp;c=hq7yzUb6ZMZlsl5TxOX-_FHtlauGmOoIAkyxoBHIGojlfFxYNm9OtQ==&amp;ch=t4Mq-xeVF7VtTF-PtSQpFM04s1Nm9_jaGmP0l4-nFbsm87ityl99Qw==">KCRO 660</a>&nbsp;AM&nbsp;as part of&nbsp;Walnut Media.
