I started going to Nebraska Cornhusker football games in 1990. I met my husband in 1994 and once I found out his family had 4 season tickets, I knew it was true love. (kidding...not kidding)
Fast forward 23 years and we have a soccer player visiting the University of Nebraska - Lincoln, home of the Huskers. It's her decision but I've gotta say it would be pretty exciting to have our daughter playing for this Big 10 program, just 50 miles from our home. Academically it's a great fit, in fact Nebraska has produced the most academic All-Americans in the nation, more than Notre Dame, Standford and Penn State to mention a few. The science behind the training, fitness and nutrition is mind blowing. Even though Nebraska Soccer tends to recruit later than most other Power Five programs they still produce professional and national team players every year. That development of the player is critical! The freshman housing isn't the best but all other facilities are top notch. However it is Coach John Walker's character that may be the deciding factor.

Reagan's ACL recovery is going well. We are so grateful to have an unofficial visit during her time of healing. If it works out, we will be headed to Oral Roberts in Tulsa, Ok for another unofficial visit on Sunday.
