Nebraska closer Luke Broderick slammed the door shut on his hometown team. Broderick blanked Creighton in the ninth inning of the Huskers’ 6-3 win on Tuesday night at Charles Schwab Field. Then the Omaha native stepped off the mound and stomped out the Bluejays’ last chance. Timely hitting delivered the Huskers a win that has eluded them as of late. Tuesday was Nebraska’s first victory vs. Creighton since May 9, 2023 — a 7-4 win also at Schwab.

Mark Kingston is back on the horse, finally a head coach again. And he believes the Bluejays are ready to soar. “There’s a tremendous history here at Creighton. We all know what happened in 1991, and we would love to see that happen again someday.” https://t.co/yLET1pX67R
Fredrick King just threw down, Mason Miller is back to being a 45% 3-pointer shooter and the Ryan Miller Racers are coming (back) to Omaha. Unreal.
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN PROGRAM HISTORY… MURRAY STATE IS OMAHA BOUND🔥 https://t.co/G7rJOP3eny
Kingston talked his year with Ed Servais, the portal, nonconference scheduling and more. He made one thing clear through it all: He came to Creighton to win, and he thinks the Jays are positioned to do that. Story soon.
