No. 1 Nebraska advanced to the NCAA Super Regionals for a second straight season by edging Grand Canyon 1-0 behind a one-hit shutout from Alexis Jensen and Jordy Frahm.
Hannah Camenzind supplied the only run with a first-inning solo homer, while Jensen worked 5 innings with 7 strikeouts to improve to 24-2 and Frahm earned her 12th save.

Jensen also tied Nebraska freshman records with 24 wins and 210 strikeouts, and Frahm's 12 saves matched the Big Ten single-season record.
