A year after winning the Big Ten, the Nebraska baseball team was tabbed to repeat as conference champion by league coaches.
The Huskers, who begin their season Friday at Sam Houston State, are No. 1 in the Big preseason poll. Michigan is second and is followed by Iowa, Maryland, Ohio State and Indiana.
Only the top six teams in the vote were revealed.
Nebraska is the only Big Ten team to show up in multiple preseason polls, including Baseball America where the Huskers are 20th.
NOW went 34-14 last year, including 31-12 in Big Ten games.
Husker senior pitchers Kyle Perry and Shay Schanaman and sophomore third baseman Max Anderson were named to the Big Ten’s preseason watch list. Anderson was the Big Ten freshman of year last spring.
