The Nebraska softball team took a one-run lead into the bottom of the seventh inning Friday night at No. 24 Minnesota, but the Golden Gophers scored twice in their final at bat to rally for an 8-7 victory.
In a nearly three-hour game that featured a tight strike zone, more than 300 pitches, 12 walks and eight errors, both teams created opportunities for their opponent and it was Minnesota taking advantage of the final opportunity, as Nebraska issued three walks and committed one error in the bottom of the seventh.
The Gophers made five errors and Nebraska out-hit Minnesota 10-8.
