Scouting the Bluejays (2022: 11-7, 0-0 BIG EAST)
Creighton has won 11 of the last 14 games, just seeing its seven-game win streak stopped on Sunday.
Creighton baseball is hitting .263 as a team, led by Alan Roden (.364), Nolan Sailors (.328) Andrew Meggs (.325) and Jared Wegner (.294).

The leaders of the pitching staff are ace Dylan Tebrake (3-1) with 33 strikeouts in 31.1 innings and back end hurlers Paul Bergstrom (2.76 ERA) and Tommy Steier (1.17 ERA).
Scouting the Huskers (2022: 9-13, 1-2 Big Ten)
Coming off an impressive run in the NCAA Tournament last season, Nebraska has scuffled early in 2022. The Huskers have dropped four of their last five.

Scouting the Jackrabbits (2022: 6-15, 0-3 Summit)
