Notes: No. 11 Nebraska scored a season-high eight goals and recorded its second consecutive shutout with an 8-0 win over Arkasnas in front of 665 fans at the Abbott Sports Complex. The Huskers extended their home winning streak to 19 games. Senior midfielder Kari Uppinghouse scored the game-winning goal for the Huskers off an assist from Isabelle Morneau just 1:53 into the match. Uppinghouse's goal was the quickest goal in Nebraska history, eclipsing Kristen Gay's goal at 2:14 in an 8-2 win at Missouri on Oct. 18, 1996. Amy Walsh, Lauren Tatum and Julie Greco all scored the first goals of their Husker careers, and Kim Engesser scored two goals to give her a team-leading nine goals on the season. Walsh added another goal and an assist to lead the Huskers with five point on the day. Nebraska was credited with its second goal of the afternoon when Arkansas midfielder Nicole Bynum kicked a cross from Lindsay Eddleman into the Lady 'Back goal.
