The No. 6 Nebraska softball team scored runs in four innings and Jordy Frahm pitched a shutout to down the Minnesota Golden Gophers, 4-0, on Friday in Minneapolis, Minn.
 
With the win, the Big Red moved to 34-6 (15-1 Big Ten) on the season, which is the best record through 40 games since 2002.
 
Hannah Coor went 2-for-4 with a home run to lead the Husker offense, and Hannah Camenzind added a triple. Jordy Frahm and Lauren Camenzind each contributed an RBI and Kacie Hoffmann and Samantha Bland each had a hit. 
 
Frahm (12-4) grabbed the win in the circle after throwing a scoreless complete game with six hits and six strikeouts. 
 
The Huskers opened up the scoring with a Coor solo shot in the top of the first to make the score 1-0.
 
NU extended the lead to 2-0 in the top of the second on a Frahm RBI single that scored Hoffmann, who singled earlier in the inning. 
 
The Big Red added another run to make the score 3-0 in the top of the sixth. Jensen walked and Kennadi Williams pinch ran for her. Williams stole second and eventually scored on a L. Camenzind single to left field.
 
Coor singled to open the top of the seventh and scored on a H. Camenzind triple to give Nebraska an insurance run and stretch the lead to 4-0.
 
NU will face Minnesota again tomorrow, April 18, at 4 p.m. (CT). The game will be streamed on B1G+ and can be heard across the Huskers Radio Network or on 105.3 FM.
