[Husker] Nebraska Baseball vs. Rice -- Rescheduled

[NUStLNorris at aol.com]

Following yesterday's postponment due to inclement weather, Nebraska will 
play #7 ranked Rice today at 2:30 p.m. at Houston's Reckling Park.  Zach Kroneke 
is again scheduled to start for the Huskers.  NU's regularly scheduled game 
today against Western Illinois will not be played and will not be made up.  

NU improved to 6-0 with their win Friday night over New Mexico behind Joba 
Chamberlain's 15 strikeouts.  Whereas NU's perfect start has been against 
somewhat inferior competition, there have been some promising signs to take note of 
no matter who the competition.  In my opinion, the return of Duensing and 
Fusilier from injury, have topped the list.  It's early, but for those who follow 
such things, NU is right on the cusp of entering the Top 25.  You'd have to 
think that a win today over a perennial national power would meet the necessary 
criteria.
