Huskers turn attention to homestretch
TED KIRK, Journal Star file photoA late Wisconsin tying goal in the 82nd minute and a 3-0 loss to No. 15 Minnesota left the Huskers with just one point after their two matches.
The results also dropped Nebraska to eighth in the Big Ten Conference standings, which is just within the field for the eight-team league tournament at the end of the month. The losses weren’t entirely critical because of the Huskers' tournament standing, but they did amp up the importance of the final four matches of the season.
“The weekend wasn’t our strongest performance, but we learn from every game,” senior midfielder Courtney Claassen said.
