Cauldrons Fall to Plainsmen, 3-1
Nebraska used a superb performance from starting pitcher Sam Groves to down the Hogsmeade Cauldrons, 3-1. Groves was the winning pitcher and moves to 6-7. He threw 7.1 innings of 3-hit ball, while fanning 8 and giving up 2 walks. Christian Mustard got credit for the save for Nebraska. It was his 15th of the year.

Ralph Cranford's at-bat in the top of the sixth was significant for the Plainsmen. Coming to the plate with a runner on 3rd and Nebraska trailing 1-0, the center fielder hit a run-scoring single.

"It's a mindset," said Groves. "Just trying to do your job, trying to be consistent."

With the win, the Plainsmen have a record of 33-32.
