Juniors Drew Anderson and Bubbs Merrill, and sophomore Daniel Bruce each batted behind Leise, NU's tourney MVP who went 7-for-15 with two homers and two triples at the Metropome.
During the same span, NU's two-hole hitter went 4-for-13 with only one RBI.

Lately, Leise has had no problem getting on. Since starting the season 4 for 22, the center fielder is 11 for his last 19 and his confidence is up after his performance in Minnesota.

Leise has gotten the Huskers off to great starts in the last few games. Leise started a game with Notre Dame (then No. 14) with a homer on Friday. On Sunday, Leise hit a triple immediately against Minnesota.

ANN ARBOR, Mich — Labels indicating risks of heart attacks, seizures or death will now be required for all products containing the herbal supplement ephedra, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced last Friday.
The decision follows the death of Baltimore Orioles prospective pitcher Steve Bechler on Feb. 17
that was linked to the use of a supplement containing ephedra. Major League Baseball decided this week to ban ephedra use in its minor league divisions.
The National Football League, the International Olympic Committee and the National Collegiate Athletics Association already prohibit the use of ephedra.

A study released last week reviewed more than 16,000 adverse events reports involving ephedra, including two deaths, four heart attacks, nine strokes, one seizure and five psychiatric cases, said American Medical Association Trustee Ron Davis.
