The Nebraska baseball team picked up its first ever Big Ten Conference weekly honors, as Josh Scheffert was named Big Ten Player of the Week and Pat Kelly was named Big Ten Freshman of the Week. Scheffert, a junior from Lincoln, hit a scalding .650 in six games last week for the Huskers, getting 13 hits in 20 at-bats. He hit three homers and drove in ten runs. In Saturday’s win over Louisiana Tech, Scheffert had a career-best five-hit game. Kelly went 8-for-14 in four games last week, including his first two career home runs. The Huskers went 5-1 in six games last week to improve their record to 14-7. They open a two-game series against Northern Colorado tonight and open their Big Ten Conference schedule with a three-game home set against Illinois on Friday night.
