[Husker] Baseball 2006

[C Jolly]

What about Sr. Jeff Christy.  He made a big difference in his defensive 
play at catcher. Even though he didn't have
many runs,he had over 30 rbi's, many in the latter part of the season.  
Keeping the opposition from scoring almost
is as important as getting runs and his contribution is immeasurable.
