Rapid Reaction: NU taps club soccer program for kicking help; getting Wan'Dale involved

Nebraska's kicking situation has prompted the NU coaching staff to call on the club soccer team for reinforcements.

Head coach Scott Frost said Friday that while the team didn't hold an open tryout, the Huskers did get in touch with NU's club soccer team to see "if they had kids who had done it before."

Frost said both of Nebraska's regular kickers -- sophomore Barrett Pickering and walk-on freshman Dylan Jorgensen -- had minor injuries last week, and punter Isaac Armstrong, who filled in as the place kicker at Colorado, was also slightly banged up.
