2017 Big Ten Baseball Tournament: Purdue Earns 8 Seed

Related Topics: Big Ten Conference, Baseball, Indiana

For the first time since 2012 Purdue is playing postseason baseball. The Big Ten baseball season closed today and, with a 21-3 win at Penn State, Nebraska earned the regular season title with a 16-7-1 record. Had their third game with Indiana not ended in a travel curfew tie they could have been tied with Michigan at 16-8. The Wolverines were a half game back, and Minnesota also was the odd team out at 15-8 as they had a game against Rutgers cancelled, and it ended up costing them the 3 seed.

Overall, however, the Big Ten was quite compact.
