[Husker] Baseball Team sweeps Northern Colorado

[Tony Lambert]

Skylar, I have a question for you. with Belfonte as the lead off and him 
hitting .392. Isn't that quite high for a lead man. And do you see him 
moving down in the order say to the 3 of 5 hole ? And I agree with you on 
the pitching staff. I was hoping Newman would do with this staff what he has 
done so far.
