The Huskers snapped the prvious scoreless streak of 596:37, set in 1995. Nebraska outscored its opponents 37-0 during the seven-game stretch.

Kim Engesser added her 14th goal of the season off an assist from Kristen Gay, before Uppinghouse struck with her ninth goal of the year off an assist from Tanya Wright to give the Huskers a 3-0 lead at intermission.
