Husker BaseballLincoln, NE - Aaron Pribanic made a solid case to move up to the Sunday starter spot on Nebraska’s pitching rotation today with his 2nd straight complete game 7-0 win over visiting Northern Colorado (5-8).  The shutout was the first of the season for a Nebraska pitcher as the Huskers (10-2) completed the 4-game sweep of the Bears.

On the day, Pribanic allowed just 5 hits, struck out 7 and didn’t walk a single batter while throwing just 103 pitches.   The complete game lowered his ERA to 0.99 for the lowest ERA of the 4 starters (Dorn 1.35, Jennings 2.87, Weber 7.16).

The Husker bats were steady throughout scoring runs in all but the 1st and 5th innings.  DJ Belfonte led the way with a 3 for 5 day which included his homerun of the year.

Up next for the Huskers is South Dakota State in Lincoln tomorrow at 1:35 pm before they travel to Kansas State to take on the Wildcats for the first Big XII series of the season.
