Strong offense gives softball 5-inning win over Nebraska

Softball notched a convincing win against Nebraska with a 9-1 victory, defeating the Huskers in five innings, ending the game with the run-ahead rule by maintaining an eight-run lead.

Eight different Bluejays racked up runs, and four hit home runs. The game was the sixth contest where the team put up eight or more runs.

A successful night from junior outfielder Ashley Cantu gave the Bluejays early momentum, and she finished the night with two hits, one homerun and one RBI. While Nebraska made the scoreboard first with a double RBI from Courtney Wallace, Cantu answered immediately, hitting a homerun in Creighton first at-bat of the opening inning.
