Head coach Rhonda Revelle said a minor injury has flared up again for Kinney, whose status is day-to-day heading into the Big Ten Tournament. Kinney pitched just two innings against Minnesota, but Nebraska is hopeful she’ll be available to pitch in the coming days. If not, that means plenty of innings for Harness with the chance of another surprise cameo from senior Caitlynn Neal. However, every single game has the added importance of potentially contributing to Nebraska’s NCAA Tournament chances. Would one or two wins from the Big Ten Tournament be enough to vault Nebraska into the NCAA Tournament field?

The last week of Reds baseball has nearly been unwatchable. I’ve never turned a Reds game off, but I was very close on Sunday, as the Reds continued one of the worst offensive droughts in their history. The Reds are now batting 209 collectively, as a team, which statistically makes them the worst offensive team in all of baseball (Woof). I believe the Reds will turn it around, but drastic times should result in drastic measures. The year 2024 has been the best year of my life and the Reds will turn it around soon to add to this awesome year.
