The University of Nebraska is filled with great fan support, academic support and also provided me with many life skills that I still use today. I had the opportunity to play with many great female athletes along the way and develop friendships that are everlasting. I carry a tremendous amount of pride when I say I am a graduate of the University of Nebraska and consider myself very blessed to have had such a great opportunity." – Peaches JamesThis in-state favorite from Papillion, Nebraska became one of the most decorated pitchers in school history.
