NEBRASKA QUOTES

Head Coach - Mike Anderson
"Good win. I'm really proud of our guys. I just thought the momentum started on Texas' side on the day and I am just proud of our guys. We had a big inning when Nick Sullivan got us started off with that big home run. The wind played quite a factor the whole day. I think it was tough to pitch. It looked like it was going to be an offensive game. I don't think Johhny (Dorn) pitched poorly. I felt like a left hander would be a better match up with the wind on today. We did a good job with (Andrew) Brown driving in a run late. I think our kids played good fundamental baseball all day long. It was a good win."

Player Quotes - Andrew Brown, LF, Jr.
"Nothing different happened than it has been all year. We go out there and try to be as aggressive as possible and score runs whenever they come - that's how they do it. Today's win is no bigger than any other win."

Player Quotes - Tony Watson, P, Soph.
"You have to have a whole different mentality as a starter and start up from the get-go, but as a reliever starting in the dugout I had to put up a big stop for us and just go out there and play."

Player Quotes - Nick Sullivan, DH, Fr.
"We had runners in scoring position, and my job was to go up there and put a good swing on the ball. I made something happen. I'm doing it for the teammates...we had different guys stepping up in different roles all the way through the game. I was just trying to step up and do my job and do it for the team."

TEXAS QUOTES

Head Coach - Augie Garrido
"I thought it was a competitive game and they played with the right spirit on both sides. Our guys responded the right way. They brought the game back to a 5-5 tie. If you look at how it went on both sides both teams were strong battled and strong willed. I think we made a good case to be the number one team in the conference. I believe that we should have at least one team from the conference in the top eight."

Player Quotes - Chance Wheeless, 1B, Jr.
"Yeah there was definitely a change of pace I think. Watson was throwing harder, especially since he's a left-hander like that it's going to throw off the hitter, but I think Watson did an excellent job coming in today. That was pretty amazing on his part."
