The Huskers have been to four super regionals (2000,2001,2002, and 2005) and three College World Series' (2001, 2002, and 2005).
[edit] 2007 season
The Huskers had a preseason ranking of 9th by Collegiate Baseball for the 2007 season.
[edit] Venue
The Cornhuskers play at Hawks Field at Haymarket Park. Hawks Field is named after one of the biggest donating families that funded the construction of the baseball stadium and Haymarket Park is named so because of its location in Lincoln's historic Haymarket District. From 1979 until 2001 the Huskers played at Buck Beltzer Stadium.
