Last weekend, Minnesota's program-record 15-game win streak was halted with a 5-3 loss to Nebraska at Lincoln, Neb., on Sunday. The loss was the Gophers' first since March 1 and dropped their record to 29-5.
It also marked the team's first Big Ten loss of the season, leaving Minnesota with a 5-1 mark in conference play. The Maroon and Gold had started 5-0 in the league for the first time since 1996. It is now 14-1 in road games on the season.
Anderson has pitched in 14 games this season, six of which were starts. She is 5-1 with a 4.63 ERA, two complete games and two saves. In 42.1 innings, she has allowed 63 hits and eight walks with 31 strikeouts.
