NU opposing pitchers have rounded up impressive numbers

The Nebraska softball team will aim to break a season-opening eight-game losing streak when it competes in the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic this weekend in Cathedral City, California.

The Huskers have struggled to push runs across the plate, especially during last week's ACC/Big Ten Challenge. But it should be noted that the Huskers are likely facing a collection of pitchers unlike any other NCAA Division I team to start the 2017 season.

The eight starting pitchers Nebraska has faced are a combined 33-0. That's a more impressive figure when one factors in the competition these teams have been playing against in the early going.
