Nebraska head coach Rhonda Revelle earned career win #1,000 on Saturday night.
Revelle is in her 28th season as the head coach at Nebraska, and entered the 2020 season in 12th place on the career wins list for active Division I coaches. She is the winningest coach in any sport in Nebraska athletics history, and the second-longest tenured coach in the school’s athletic department.
Four times the conference’s Coach of the Year, including most recently in 2014, Revelle has led the Huskers to the NCAA tournament twenty times during her tenure leading the program. She was inducted into the NFCA Hall of Fame in 2010 and the Nebraska Softball Hall of Fame in 1997.
The Huskers have reached the Women’s College World Series three times under Revelle’s guidance, in 1998, 2002, and 2013. She has coached twenty-one All-Americans while at Nebraska, and herself was a player on the 1982 Huskers squad that reached the Women’s College World Series.
With Saturday’s victory, the Huskers move to 3-1 on the young season, and have outscored their opponents 40-22.
