Lincoln-Will Walsh belted his second homer of the weekend, as Nebraska completed its series sweep of Nicholls with an 11-4 win in the series finale on Sunday afternoon at Hawks Field at Haymarket Park.

Winners of 10 of their last 12 games, the Huskers (13-5) scored 11 runs on 14 hits and committed an error. Nicholls (17-6) totaled four runs, six hits and three errors.

Walsh led the Big Red at the plate, going 2-for-5 with a home run, three RBI and two runs in a game where every Husker in the starting lineup recorded a hit. Rhett Stokes drove in a pair of runs after going 2-for-5 with two doubles and a team-high three runs. Gabe Swansen and Josh Caron had a two-hit day with a double apiece, while Dylan Hufft went 2-for-3.

Nebraska continues its homestand at Hawks Field at Haymarket Park with a pair of midweek games against Omaha and North Dakota State. The Huskers welcome the Mavericks on Tuesday, March 19, before hosting the Bison on Wednesday, March 20.
