Baseball: ‘Cats drop final series of the season to OSU but end on a high note

What was the most unusual of academic years for Northwestern Athletics has at long last reached its end.

NU’s final team playing in the 2020-2021 school year — its baseball squad — dropped two of three to Ohio State to close its season, but picked up a win in the season finale in Columbus on Sunday to send the year off on a sweet note.

The anchor of the Wildcats’ offense all season long — and now a First Team All-Big Ten shortstop — Shawn Goosenberg was once again effective during the weekend road trip, hitting 5-for-12 while scoring five times.
