MARCH VIDEO MADNESS: Obama and British PM Take in Some Hoops

March Madness has spread to the U.K. — or more accurately, British Prime Minister David Cameron took in some March Madness action last night as President Obama’s guest.

The two heads of state sat courtside for the Western Kentucky-Mississippi Valley State game in Dayton, Ohio last night and were interviewed during halftime by CBS Sports analyst Clark Kellogg, who asked Obama to break down the action and Cameron what he thought about basketball.

The British PM said he was enjoying himself and Obama was giving him some insights into the action. Obama then added that Cameron would help him understand cricket, because he doesn’t understand “that cricket thing.”

Huskers Bats Erupt In Win Over Jackrabbits

The Nebraska baseball team shook off a slow start and revved up their offense for another home victory, defeating South Dakota State 12-3 at Hawks Field yesterday afternoon. In their fifth game in as many days, the sluggish Huskers trailed 2-0 heading into the bottom of the fourth inning. Richard Stock and Blake Headley drove in runs in that frame to tie the game, and a Jackrabbit error allowed the go-ahead run to score in the fifth. The Huskers broke the game open with three runs in the seventh, highlighted by a two-run homer by Josh Scheffert, his second round-tripper in the last two games. A four-run eighth inning put the game further out of reach. Relief pitcher Aaron Bummer earned his first career win for the Huskers, who moved to 11-6 on the season. They open a four-game home series with Louisiana Tech on Thursday.
