Play-by-play recap: Iowa 1 Nebraska 0
The series opener between the Hawkeyes and Huskers was what you expect when two aces go head-to-head on Friday night. Cade Obermueller and Will Walsh were both fantastic, combining to allow just one run over 14.0 innings. That lone run came off the bat of Kooper Schulte, a solo home run in the second inning, and that was enough to give Iowa a 1-0 win.
Here is a play-by-play breakdown of how the Hawkeyes game went against the Huskers…
