Unger Accepts Team USA Training Camp Invite

Nebraska’s J’Shawn Unger has accepted an invitation to the 2026 USA Baseball Collegiate National Team Training Camp.

The summer schedule will kick off with three days of exhibition doubleheaders for a combined six games between June 27-29 in Burlington and Cary, North Carolina, and Danville, Virginia.

Following the three days of exhibition games, the annual Stars vs. Stripes series will begin June 30 at Segra Stadium in Fayetteville, North Carolina. The next three games will be held at the National Training Complex in Cary from July 1-3, and the series will return to Segra Stadium July 4 for the finale.

Unger finished the season ranked fifth nationally with 13 saves in 2026, which is tied for third-most in a season by a Husker pitcher in program history.

Along with the 13 saves, the right-hander posted a 6-1 record and a 4.05 ERA in 40 innings across 25 relief appearances while striking out 39 and limiting opposing batters to a .203 batting average.

The Collegiate National Team, which will be named on July 5 following the conclusion of Training Camp, will then compete in the inaugural World Collegiate Baseball Championship at Taichung City Intercontinental Baseball Stadium in Taichung City, Taiwan, from July 11-15.
