3 Head Coach - Darin Erstad (Fourth Season) Coaching Record (105-74) Darin Erstad was named the 23rd head coach of the Nebraska baseball program - and the fifth since on June 2, Erstad took over a team in 2012 that had failed to qualify for the postseason the previous three seasons and was making a move from the Big 12 to the Big Ten Conference. While the squad fell short of qualifying for the NCAA Tournament in 2012, improvement could be seen across the board. The Huskers have played in a conference tournament each of Erstad s first three season, including runner-up finishes the past two seasons. The program took another step forward in 2014 when it returned to the NCAA Tournament with an at-large bid to the Stillwater Regional. Nebraska went 1-2 at the regional, with both losses coming to perennial power Cal State Fullerton. The Huskers finished second in the Big Ten during both the regular season and at the Big Ten Tournament, with a loss to Indiana in the title game for the second straight season. A two-time Major League All-Star and three-time Gold Glove winner, Erstad spent the 2011 season as a volunteer assistant coach with the Husker program. In his role, he helped lead a pair of Huskers to All-Big 12 honors, including third baseman Cody Asche. One of the most decorated players in Nebraska baseball history, Erstad was a first-team All-American and finalist for the USA Baseball Golden Spikes Award in 1995, before embarking on a 14-year career in Major League Baseball. The No. 1 overall pick in the 1995 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft, Erstad spent the majority of his career playing for the Angels, where he won three Gold Gloves ( ) and was selected for the American League All-Star team in 1998 and He is the only player in Major League history to win Gold Gloves as an infielder (2004) and outfielder (2000 and 2002) and the first player in Major League history to win Gold Gloves at three positions (LF, 2000; CF, 2002; 1B, 2004). Erstad was one of the greatest players in Angels franchise history, as he ranks in the top five on team charts in eight categories, including at bats (4th), runs (4th), hits (4th), total bases (4th), doubles (4th), RBIs (4th), stolen bases (4th) and games played (5th). A native of Jamestown, N.D., Erstad played American Legion Baseball and hit.495 with 18 homers, 86 RBIs and 21 doubles as a senior. He was the state tournament MVP in both 1991 and 1992 and a three-time all-state pick. Erstad was a 13th-round pick by the New York Mets in the 1992 MLB Draft and earned first-team all-state accolades in four sports (football, hockey, track and baseball) in high school. Darin, and his wife, Jessica, have one daughter, Jordan, and two sons, Zack and Adam. Huskers Open 2015 at UNLV After putting together a record and a trip to the NCAA Tournament last season for the first time since 2008, the Nebraska baseball team looks to build on last year s success in The process starts on Friday, Feb. 13, at 8:05 p.m. (CT) when the Huskers open the 2015 campaign in Las Vegas, Nev., with the first game of a three-game series against the UNLV Rebels. The Huskers will be looking to avenge a series loss to the Rebels last season in Lincoln, while the Huskers haven t played in Las Vegas since Senior Chance Sinclair is scheduled to start the season opener, and the third-team preseason All-American (Collegiate Baseball) will be looking to pick up his 10th career win after posting 9-1 record last year. Fellow senior Kyle Kubat is set to take the mound for game two on Saturday at 4:05 p.m., while sophomore Max Knutson is scheduled to make his first career start in the finale on Sunday at 3:05 p.m. On the Radio Fans across Nebraska and around the world can listen to Greg Sharpe and Lane Grindle call all of the action on the Husker Sports Network - including KLIN 1400 AM and 94.5 FM in Lincoln - and live on the Internet at Huskers.com or the Official Husker App. TV Coverage None of this weekend s games in Las Vegas will be on TV. Web Streams All three games between the Huskers and Rebels are scheduled to be streamed live on REBEL TV at unlvrebels.com/videos and will be free. Veteran Group Nebraska s senior class includes eight members who all played a role in Nebraska s return to the NCAA Tournament last season. The eight member class is made up of five position players who have combined to start 399 games, while three pitchers have made 94 combined appearances, including 44 starts. Reloading the Offense The Huskers enter the 2015 season without two key members of their offense from a year ago in Michael Pritchard and Pat Kelly. Both members of Nebraska s 200-hit club, Pritchard and Kelly combined for 31 of NU s 98 doubles, seven of the team s 19 home runs and 104 of the squad s 331 RBIs last season. Pritchard and Kelly were mainstays in the Huskers lineup over the past three seasons, but as the season progresses Head Coach Darin Erstad believes that the 2015 squad has players that can step up and carry the offensive load this season. Masters on the Mound Three seniors on NU s 2015 pitching staff enter the season ranked in the top-15 on NU s career ERA chart. Chance Sinclair enters the year with a 2.15 career ERA, with ranks second to Trevor Bullock s school-record career ERA of Josh Roeder ranks third on the list with a 2.28 ERA, while Kyle Kubat enters the season with a 3.07 career ERA, which ranks 12th all time. Close the Doors After playing his freshman season at Louisburg College in North Carolina, Josh Roeder joined the Huskers in 2013 and helped solidify the back end of NU s bullpen. During the 2013 season, Roeder saw most of his action in a setup role to Dylan Vogt, but did collect six saves. Roeder took over the closer role in 2014 and saved 12 games. Roeder enters the 2015 season ranked second in NU history with 18 career saves and needs 14 saves in 2015 to break Brett Jensen s school record of 31 saves. Winning Weekend The opening weekend of the college baseball season has not gone well for the Huskers of late. Nebraska hasn t posted a winning record during the season s first weekend since 2011 when NU went 4-1 with wins over Missouri State, Washington and Air Force after starting the year with a loss to Texas State. The Huskers went 0-3 against Gonzaga to open the 2012 season, then went 0-4 in 2013 with losses to CSU Bakersfield, Cal State Fullerton (2 games) and USC. Last season, the Huskers went 2-2 to start the year with wins over Pacific and Gonzaga, along with losses to Oregon State and Gonzaga Nebraska Baseball Game Notes Page 3 Huskers.com

If he joins the club, Darby would be the fourth Husker to join over the past three seasons, as Chad Christensen ended his career with 247 hits in Prior to Christensen, Jake Opitz was the last Husker to join the club in Matt Hopper holds the school record with 338 career hits and is one of just two players in school history to have topped 300 hits.

The lefty from Waterloo, Neb., started eight games in each of his first two seasons before making 12 starts last year. If Kubat starts at least 12 games in 2015 he will become the first Husker since Johnny Dorn to make at least 40 career start. Dorn ranks second all-time at Nebraska with 58 career starts from 2000 to Since 2000, only four pitchers at Nebraska have made at least 40 career starts, including Shane Komine (59), Dorn (58), Jamie Rodrigue (53) and Zach Kroenke (41).

Lubach has been the Huskers primary catcher each of the past two seasons after transferring to Nebraska following one year at Hutchinson Community College. Cory Burleson ( ) holds the school record with 46 runners caught stealing, while current volunteer assistant Jeff Christy ranks second with 38 runners caught stealing in just two years behind the plate in 2005 and Topping 100 Senior Austin Darby is 16 RBIs away from becoming the 44th Husker since 1986 to notch 100 RBIs for their career. Blake Headley (58) and Tanner Lubach (54) also have a chance to join the club this year, but both would need to have career years, as neither has produced even a 30-RBI season. Pat Kelly joined the club last year and ended his three-year career with 125 RBIs, while Michael Pritchard fell four RBIs short of 100 career RBIs. Matt Hopper is the only Husker to ever top the 200- RBI mark, with a school-record 271 RBIs. Banking on Boldt After being named the No. 2 freshman in country by Baseball America last season, Ryan Boldt lived up to the hype by earning All-Big Tournament and NCAA Regional All-Tournament honors, as well as Louisville Slugger Freshman All-America accolades. On the season, Boldt hit.311 with 74 hits, while leading the team in runs (47) and triples (6). His six triples were the most by a Husker since Jeff Leise hit seven in Most impressively Boldt was at his best late in the year when games mattered the most. Over NU s final 10 games of the 2014 season he led the team in average (.357), hits (15), doubles (3), triples (2) and runs (9). Boldt hit leadoff for the Huskers over NU s final 29 games, when they went 22-7, but is expected to hit in the No. 3 or 4 hole in Keep Grinding If you could use one word to describe the 2014 Huskers it would be - grind. Nebraska was one of the most resilient teams in the country during the 2014 season. Hawks Field Top-15 Attendances 1.
