LINCOLN, Neb. - Nebraska's Lindsay Eddleman scored a pair of second-half goals to lead No. 8 Nebraska to a 3-0 win over No. 17 Baylor in Lincoln Sunday.

After Meghan Anderson netted a free kick at the 35:57 mark, Eddleman iced it away with two late goals. Her header of a corner kick at the 76:53 mark came off Jenny Benson's assist. She scored the final goal unassisted three minutes later.

The win put Nebraska at 2-0 on the season and in Big 12 play while the Bears fell to 1-1. Baylor beat Nebraska 1-0 for the conference championship, 1-0, last year in Waco.

The Huskers led in shots on goal, 27-5, and in corner kicks, 12-2. BU's Dawn Greathouse, returning from reconstructive knee surgery, recorded 13 saves, while NU's Karina LeBlanc notched two.

Baylor hosts the Bear Invitational in Waco Friday and Saturday. BU takes on San Diego at 7 p.m. Friday and TCU at 1 p.m. Sunday.
