If the Roadrunners were looking for revenge after losing 10-6 to the Huskers when the teams met back in April of 2024, then they'll just have to keep looking.
As for Serena, they have been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 12 of their last 13 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 23-6 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.6 runs on average over those games.
For Serena's part, Cassie Walsh spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned runs on six hits.
