Lincoln, Neb.&nbsp;- Despite outshooting the Huskies 25-9, the Nebraska soccer team fell 2-0 to Washington at home on Senior Sunday.&nbsp;

Nebraska also held the advantage in corners (7-0), but Washington led in shots on goal (7-5) and saves (7-3), as the Huskers dropped to 5-10-1 (2-7-1 Big Ten) on the season and Washington improved to 9-5-2 (6-4-0 Big Ten).&nbsp;

Nebraska was on the offensive attack early, as Sarah Weber tallied the opening two shots of the game, but it was Washington that recorded the first finish for either team. In the seventh minute, Ioanna Papatheodorou scored off assists from Samiah Shell and Kelsey Branson.

Going into the half, the Huskers held the lead in shots (14-7) and corners (4-0), while the Huskies tallied one more shot on goal (4-3). Individually, Weber led the way for the Huskers with six shots and freshman Reese Snowden added three of her own. Abbey Schwarz, Lauryn Anglim and Gwen Lane each recorded a shot on frame.

In the second half, the Huskers recorded 11 shots, including a few late chances to score, but Washington’s Alex Buck stretched the Huskie lead to 2-0 after a turnover in the Husker backfield in the 68th minute.&nbsp;

Weber’s nine shots on the day brings her career total to 330, just shy of Meghan Anderson in second place in the Husker record books. Overall, 10 Huskers recorded at least one shot, and two Huskers played the complete game, Haley Peterson and Anglim.&nbsp;

The Huskers wrap up regular season play as they welcome Indiana to Hibner Stadium on Sunday, Oct. 27. Action is slated for 1:05 p.m. (CT) and will be streamed on Big Ten Plus.

Huskers fall to Washington, 2-0 

By: Paxton Ritchie CSC Sports Information Director

CHADRON, Neb. – Four interceptions on four consecutive passes for the Eagle defense, including two returned for touchdowns, kickstarted a 24-point third quarter as the Chadron State football team put on a show for its homecoming crowd with a 55-13 win over Fort Lewis at Elliott Field at Don Beebe Stadium in Chadron.

The win propels the Eagles' 2024 record up to 3-4 overall and 2-3 in the RMAC. Fort Lewis fell to 1-6 overall and 0-5 in RMAC play. In addition, Chadron State football improved its record on homecoming to 19-5 since the year 2000.

Safeties Dax Yeradi and Tucker Peterson each recorded pick-sixes as the Eagle defense overwhelmed the Grizzlies with four picks and 24 points in the span of five minutes of game time, turning a 24-0 halftime advantage into a 48-3 lead after three quarters.

Peterson also had a second interception, which he returned to the Fort Lewis seven-yard-line to set up a rushing score, while linebacker Xavier Harrell also came away with a pick.

Quarterback DJ Ralph threw for 157 yards while completing 12 of 21 attempts for a touchdown. Ralph also rushed for 44 net yards and a score on the ground, one of four rushing touchdowns for the Eagles on the day.

Jake Marschall had a pair of rushing touchdowns, from eight and three yards out, while freshman running back and Sargent, Nebraska native Quincey Ryker electrified the crowd in the second half with a 72-yard touchdown on his first college carry.

Both teams punted on their first possession of the game, but Chadron State found the end zone on their second. Ralph found Jamahd Monroe twice, once for 23 yards and once on a flea flicker deep down the middle for 42 yards, setting up a Ralph rushing touchdown from four yards out as the home team led 7-0 after one quarter of play.

In the second quarter, a 12-yard Dax Yeradi punt return gave Chadron State possession at the Fort Lewis 24-yard line to start their drive. A Ralph scramble picked up a first down before Jake Marschall punched it in on third-and-goal for an eight-yard touchdown to make it 14-0.

The Eagles' next drive stalled, but Wilson Yee nailed a 55-yard field goal to make it 17-0. The kick was Yee's second-longest of the season behind a 57-yarder he had earlier this year at Colorado Mesa.

Chadron State found paydirt again just before halftime, when Ralph found a wide-open Tommy Thomas in the end zone from eight yards out with 27 seconds left to give the Eagles a 24-0 lead heading into the locker room.

Fort Lewis got on the board early in the second half with a field goal, but midway through the third quarter came the avalanche. Fort Lewis, playing with a rotating cast of quarterbacks due to an injury to season-long start Stone Walker, began to press and Chadron State's ball-hawking secondary made play after play.

Yeradi sniffed out a screen pass, jumping the route and breaking away untouched for a 51-yard interception return TD to make it 31-3. It was Yeradi's third interception of the season, tying him for second in the RMAC in that category.

On FLC quarterback Jacob Morris's very next pass, Tucker Peterson stepped in front of a crossing route over the middle, catching it at the Skyhawks 45 and running it all the way down to the 7-yard-line before being caught from behind. Chadron State wasted little time cashing in, handing it to Jake Marschall twice, with the sophomore's second carry turning into a 3-yard touchdown run.

Lightning struck again, with Morris's very next pass intercepted by Xavier Harrell at the Fort Lewis 31. The Skyhawks defense held, with Yee kicking a 37-yard field goal to make it 41-3.

It seemed as though Petersen's opportunity for a pick-six had come and gone after being tackled in the red zone just four minutes before, but he would have a chance at redemption. Fort Lewis changed quarterbacks, but couldn't change the outcome, as Sam Jones's first pass found the arms of Peterson. This time, the sophomore safety would not be caught, running it back 30 yards for another Chadron State TD to make it 48-3.

Turnovers were a theme of the game. In addition to FLC's four interceptions, both teams lost one fumble each. Chadron State fumbled two more times in the fourth quarter, but were fortunate to recover both to keep the Eagles at just one turnover on the day.

Chadron State was able to empty the bench for much of the fourth quarter. Quarterbacks Miguel Larios and Kasey Jones saw garbage time action, with Jones making his collegiate debut.

Quincey Ryker, a true freshman running back out of Sargent, had a dream start to his college career with a 72-yard touchdown on his first carry to cap CSC's scoring, breaking one tackle and racing down the near sideline. Ryker finished with two carries for 80 yards.

Jamahd Monroe was CSC's leading receiver with four catches for 85 yards. Tommy Thomas also had four catches for 31 yards and a touchdown. Jake Marschall finished with 87 net rushing yards and two TD's on the ground.

Defensively, Reed Henkel led the Eagles with eight tackles while Liam Blaser had seven. Linebacker Logan O'Brien had a sack and 3.5 tackles for loss.

Volleyball - McCook @ NPHS Bulldogs

OMAHA, Neb.&nbsp;– The&nbsp;Omaha Supernovas, Nebraska’s professional volleyball team and first Pro Volleyball Champions, set their sights on the&nbsp;Pro Volleyball Federation Draft&nbsp;which is to be held on Monday, November 25 starting at 11 a.m. CDT.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The PVF Draft will take place over five rounds with each team having one selection per round. However, the Supernovas are one of only two teams to have more than five selections as Omaha acquired San Diego’s second round pick last year in exchange for outside hitter Lindsey Vander Weide.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Supernovas will have four picks in the top 20 starting with the final pick of the first round at No. 8 overall. Omaha will follow up with two picks in the second round at No. 10 and No. 15 overall. The Supernovas will select third in the third round at No. 19, sixth in round four at No. 30 and fifth in round five at No. 37.&nbsp;

“The coaches and league officials thought it was important for us to hold the draft prior to the start of training camp,” noted&nbsp;Laura “Bird” Kuhn,&nbsp;head coach of the 2024 PVF Champion Omaha Supernovas. “The timing of our draft will allow college draftees the ability to focus their attention on the postseason, as well as potentially attend training camp and be positioned for success when they complete their collegiate season.”&nbsp;&nbsp;

PVF’s eighth and newest franchise, the Indy Ignite, was awarded the No. 1 overall pick before a lottery determined picks two through four. The remainder of the first round was set based on the 2024 postseason finish, which was won by the Supernovas in a straight-set sweep over the Grand Rapids Rise on May 18, 2024, at the&nbsp;CHI Health Center.&nbsp;&nbsp;

A separate lottery was used for every round two through five to set the draft order, which was held on October 15. The Supernovas, along with each team, will draft from local markets with real-time updates, plus video highlights of picks available after the draft’s conclusion.&nbsp;&nbsp;

A round-by-round draft order can be found&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://db9xbvgbb.cc.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001D1hZnEY9ay4u0QN9ckAMBKjtc-zjo6_1_ts0JZHe0FHpyaVRojO9W1k_1G4eODKOtul6dPIBVJg1cLfQZxMjhPdeALRrF2Hws13hMAS35G_Ouhm1UO1sbV6nr2UOAG_j3h1jN4uR8zrRLZPQ83R24WDkFC2HQsORo3EmR9dD7ELYCQZQGhx_G8-cVH2C0YsJov1Fy0GRYrAFJakiqmBq6wKIs5GfdqIhweY3GxKFyByNLL0SQvHwM3yVW6B2Twl7jKsZDS8UpQbzHVO8u5mS86wiuNDwOooHCPFqc0QE5jnov4fonpKJ8pTnGfQZ1EftX6RI3JfkVNU9C-juBsfYqq-t8kYWGq__bZ-PZJSNKEL79DGOfbDcQLNqIcAKExmZsTF8dTKaA5lwBfe3cOxCOXgH7PdIG_GWcN2jRk32ixCTSi0RSVVMorkvbIRXzbr84IYFPhHoNT0=&amp;c=R15whZaHGFRmtnWfHNSODETVyU5_GvcK0WiXLs0fNHja3TKNyQNWZA==&amp;ch=s0ogpPUtZSqAZkRA3zoU1f0AGp47S0oninGpL6znvFxSmvzPkLXnSg==">here</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Omaha aims to build on its rookie development from 2024, which led to the return of one of its own draft picks, middle blocker&nbsp;Sophie Davis, who was selected in the fourth round of last year’s inaugural draft. Building on another successful rookie development story for the Supernovas,&nbsp;Paige Romine-Briggs&nbsp;will continue her professional volleyball career in Grand Rapids, following her championship-winning season with Omaha in the inaugural Pro Volleyball Championship this past May.&nbsp;

The Supernovas, along with each team, will draft from local markets with real-time updates, plus video highlights of picks available after the draft’s conclusion.&nbsp;&nbsp;A round-by-round draft order can be found&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://db9xbvgbb.cc.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001D1hZnEY9ay4u0QN9ckAMBKjtc-zjo6_1_ts0JZHe0FHpyaVRojO9W1k_1G4eODKOtul6dPIBVJg1cLfQZxMjhPdeALRrF2Hws13hMAS35G_Ouhm1UO1sbV6nr2UOAG_j3h1jN4uR8zrRLZPQ83R24WDkFC2HQsORo3EmR9dD7ELYCQZQGhx_G8-cVH2C0YsJov1Fy0GRYrAFJakiqmBq6wKIs5GfdqIhweY3GxKFyByNLL0SQvHwM3yVW6B2Twl7jKsZDS8UpQbzHVO8u5mS86wiuNDwOooHCPFqc0QE5jnov4fonpKJ8pTnGfQZ1EftX6RI3JfkVNU9C-juBsfYqq-t8kYWGq__bZ-PZJSNKEL79DGOfbDcQLNqIcAKExmZsTF8dTKaA5lwBfe3cOxCOXgH7PdIG_GWcN2jRk32ixCTSi0RSVVMorkvbIRXzbr84IYFPhHoNT0=&amp;c=R15whZaHGFRmtnWfHNSODETVyU5_GvcK0WiXLs0fNHja3TKNyQNWZA==&amp;ch=s0ogpPUtZSqAZkRA3zoU1f0AGp47S0oninGpL6znvFxSmvzPkLXnSg==">here</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;Omaha aims to build on its rookie development from 2024, which led to the return of one of its own draft picks, middle blocker&nbsp;Sophie Davis, who was selected in the fourth round of last year’s inaugural draft.

Huskers announce 2025 Men’s Gymnastics Schedule

Facing an early four-run deficit, the Red team used a seven-run outburst in the bottom of the fourth inning to post a 7-5 win and grab a 2-1 lead in the Red-White Series on Monday afternoon at Hawks Field.

Red had seven runs on six hits and an error, while White totaled five runs on nine hits.

Gavin Blachowicz earned the win out of the bullpen, dealing 2.1 shutout innings with one hit, a strikeout and one walk. Luke Broderick collected the save after pitching the final 1.2 innings in shutout fashion. Will Walsh went three innings in the start, allowing four runs on eight hits with a pair of punchouts.

White’s Jackson Brockett took the loss after giving up six runs on four hits with four strikeouts and three walks in 3.2 innings of work. Pryce Bender surrendered a run on two hits in 1.1 innings out of the bullpen, while J’Shawn Unger tossed one scoreless inning of relief.

Red’s Hayden Lewis went 2-for-3 with a pair of doubles and an RBI. Cayden Brumbaugh was 1-for-4 with a double and three RBI. Riley Silva and Gabe Swansen tallied a hit and an RBI each, while Cael Frost added a hit.

Robby Bolin, Case Sanderson and Will Jesske led the White offense with two hits apiece. Dylan Carey, Max Buettenback and TJ Coats recorded one hit.

The White offense went to work early, plating three runs on four hits in the opening frame. Consecutive one-out singles from Bolin and Carey had runners on first and third, before Buettenback lined an RBI double into the left-center gap to bring home Bolin.

Carey trotted home on a passed ball, while Sanderson smacked an RBI to right field to score Buettenback and give the visiting team a 3-0 advantage in the first.

Sanderson ripped a two-out double down the right-field line and later came around to score on an RBI single from Jesske to build the lead to 4-0 in the top of the third.

Red overcame the four-run deficit with a seven-run outburst with five hits in the bottom of the fourth to take a 7-5 lead with three innings to play. All seven runs were scored with two outs in the inning, beginning with a sacrifice fly from Cotton and an RBI double from Lewis that cut the deficit to 4-2.

With the bases loaded, Brumbaugh smacked the 1-1 pitch to right for a bases-clearing three-RBI double that gave Red its first lead of the afternoon. RBI singles from Silva and Swansen grew the lead to three for the Red team in the bottom of the fourth.

A leadoff walk to Rhett Stokes began the seventh, while Stokes later scored when Carey lifted a sacrifice fly to the warning track in left field to bring the White squad within a pair of runs in the final inning.

Broderick struck out the next batter to preserve the 7-5 win for the Red team.

The Red-White Series continues tomorrow afternoon at 3:05 p.m. at Hawks Field.

NSAA State Golf start times for 10-14

CHADRON, Neb. – Chadron State and New Mexico Highlands had an old-fashioned shootout during their Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference football game Saturday afternoon. It included 951 yards of total offense and four lead changes in the fourth quarter before the homestanding Cowboys hung on for a 33-30 victory.

With just seconds remaining, the Eagles had a chance to send the clash into overtime, but they missed a 40-yard field goal by a few inches, much to the delight of the Cowboys' homecoming crowd. It is the second-straight one score game between the two schools, as the Eagles pulled out a 24-21 victory by connecting for a touchdown with 71 seconds left on the clock a year ago.

The Eagles are now 2-4 for the season and 1-3 in the RMAC. New Mexico Highlands (1-5, 1-3 RMAC) earned Head Coach Kurt Tuafa'asau's first victory with the program and snapped a 13-game Cowboys losing streak dating back to midseason last year.

Statistically, Highlands dominated the first half Saturday, taking an almost four-to-one margin in time of possession while running 44 plays for 242 yards compared to Chadron State's 22 plays for 113 yards, but Highlands led by just two points at halftime. Chadron State moved the ball better in the second half and finished with 488 total yards while Highlands finished with 463.

Each team had numerous standouts. Both quarterbacks, Joey Cave for Highlands and DJ Ralph for Chadron State, completed over 70 percent of their passes, threw for three touchdowns and ran for one. Neither was sacked. The Eagles' Jake Marschall was the game's leading rusher with 16 carries for 131 yards, while the Cowboys' Teita Valeti carried 26 times for 116 yards and one TD. 

While eight Eagles caught passes, Highlands utilized just four receivers. One of them, senior Teneil Nichols, caught two fourth-quarter touchdown passes for the Cowboys, both of which were among the game's four lead changes in the final quarter. Nichols finished with seven catches for 124 yards.

New Mexico Highlands jumped out to a lead by scoring two touchdowns, but Chadron State stopped the Cowboys on a two-point conversion after the first touchdown before blocking the extra point after the second, keeping the score 12-0. At that point, Highlands had possessed the ball more than 19 minutes and the Eagles less than four.  

Chadron State's Tucker Peterson returned the ensuing kickoff 47 yards and Ralph hit Marschall with a 15-yard pass to help set up a 46-yard field goal by Wilson Yee to put the Eagles on the scoreboard. With barely a minute left in the second quarter, Peterson blocked a Highlands punt at midfield. Ralph threw a 12-yard pass to Chase Nelson and ran for seven yards before wide receiver Tommy Thomas took a short toss 19 yards to the end zone. Yee kicked the extra point to make the score 12-10 at halftime. 

Each team scored once in the third quarter. The Cowboys moved ahead 18-10 on Cave's four-yard pass to Cayden Walton to cap a 10-play, 48-yard drive. The Eagles answered just two minutes later by going 94 yards in just five plays. Ralph hit wide receivers Grant Swenson and Rollin George with lengthy passes, then dashed the final 12 yards up the middle to the end zone for a rushing touchdown to pull within two points at 18-16. The Eagles went for two to try and tie the score, but a double pass attempt from Swenson was intercepted in the end zone.

The Eagles had a chance to take the lead early in the fourth quarter, but a short field goal attempt was foiled by a bad snap to the holder and blocked when it was finally kicked. Chadron State's defense forced a punt, however, and the Eagles finally took their first lead at 23-18 while needing just five plays again to go 74 yards. Ralph connected with passes to Swenson and tight end Peter Krohn, pass interference was called on the Cowboys and George took Ralph's toss the final two yards into the endzone with nine minutes left to play.  

The lead didn't last long. Nichols soon carried Cave's pass 61 yards to the end zone after the CSC cornerback slipped on the turf. The Cowboys were ahead again, this time 26-23.

The Eagles promptly fought back. They needed just six plays to drive 71 yards and regain the lead 30-26 with 4:08 left to play. Ralph and Marschall had runs of 16 and 19 yards, respectively, and the CSC quarterback threw a pass to tight end Peter Krohn, who went the final 20 yards.   

Three minutes later, Highlands took the lead again by going 75 yards in nine plays. Five of them were short rushes that helped run out the clock, but Cave also teamed up with Nichols on passes of 27 and 28 yards, the last one in the end zone for what proved to be the game-winner.  

The Eagles' hopes soared again when Preston Pearson returned the kickoff 45 yards to the Highlands' 46 with a minute left to play. Bolstered by a 12-yard pass to Thomas, CSC got the ball to the 25 before two passes fell incomplete. With 19 seconds remaining, Wilson Yee lined up for a 40-yard field goal that would have tied the score, but it was wide right.

Chadron State's leading tacklers were linebackers Logan O'Brien and Reed Henkel. Each had nine solo stops and O'Brien also earned an assisted tackle to finish with 10 stops.

Chadron State football will be back at home this upcoming Saturday, October 19. It will be homecoming for the Eagles as they take on Fort Lewis (1-5, 0-4 RMAC), who lost 58-24 to nationally-ranked CSU Pueblo on Saturday. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. at Elliott Field at Don Beebe Stadium.

Bringing Sports Tourism to North Platte through Golf

North Platte, Neb. – Knights avenged an earlier season loss by defeating Hastings College JV in four sets on Tuesday night.

North Platte finished the night with three players in double-digit kills as Jaelyn Dicke led the way with 14. Nya Lual tallied 11 kills, while Zoe Maher added 10 of her own. Aubrey Grant dished out a season best 48 assists to accompany her three kills on the night.

The black and gold matched the Broncos early, until a 7-1 run helped North Platte distance themselves late in the opening set. Hastings rallied with a 5-1 run to pull back within three but kills from Dicke and Lual helped seal the first set, 25-20.

Knights got out to a strong start in the second set, but the Broncos once again rallied to knot the set at ten.
