BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Jordy Bahl threw a one-hit shutout and hit a home run, Samantha Bland drove in four runs and Nebraska routed Southeastern Louisiana 8-0 to win the Baton Rouge Regional on Sunday.

The Cornhuskers (41-13) advance to the Super Regional at seventh-seeded Tennessee next weekend. The Lions (50-16) beat 10th-seeded host LSU 4-3 and 8-7 but lost to Nebraska in between, 14-1.

Bahl hit a 3-2 pitch leading off the bottom of the first inning for her 22nd home run and fourth of the regional, giving herself all the support she would need.
