RBIs and two runs scored in the season opener, before going 3-for-4 with two doubles, a run scored
and an RBI in the second game of the day at New Mexico State. Her two doubles against the Aggies
marked one of four games in 2013 where Decker produced more than one extra-base hit. Two weeks
later, Decker put together her first perfect effort at the plate, going 3-for-3 with a double, two runs
scored and two RBIs against Maryland. She then slugged a double and a homer while producing two
RBIs the next weekend at Oklahoma State.
Decker’s numbers increased during the Big Ten portion of Nebraska’s schedule, when she hit .293
with six doubles, a homer and 13 RBIs. Her biggest hit of the conference season was in the rubber
match against No. 9 Michigan, when she hit a go-ahead three-run homer with Nebraska trailing in
the bottom of the sixth inning. She finished 2-for-3 in the game with a double, a homer and three RBIs
as the Huskers won the season series over the Wolverines. Decker also excelled in the postseason.
She slugged two doubles in Nebraska’s Women’s College World Series-clinching victory at Oregon,
her home state school. Then in Oklahoma City, Decker ignited Nebraska’s comeback from a four-run
deficit against No. 2 Florida with a fifth-inning solo home run.
