Jordy Bahl’s move to Nebraska creates overwhelming softball ticket demand and national title hopes

UNDATED (AP)- Nebraska softball is enjoying a surge in popularity with the addition of pitching phenom Jordy Bahl. She shocked the college softball world last June when she announced her transfer to the Cornhuskers a week after she led Oklahoma to its third straight national title and was named the Most Outstanding Player of the Women’s College World Series. The Huskers are in the preseason Top 25 for the first time since 2015. High ticket demand has led Nebraska to expand the capacity of its stadium. The team talks of winning a national championship. The Huskers open Thursday (Feb. 8, 2024) against Washington.
