Nebraska softball has made a transfer portal addition.

Jesse Farrell, a two-year starter at UNLV as a catcher, is set to join Nebraska. She has two seasons of eligibility remaining.

The Henderson, Nev., native earned second-team All-Mountain West honors this past season. As a freshman, she was one of 25 finalists for national freshman of the year in 2024.

Nebraska lost only two senior starters off of this year's super regional team, with one of them being catcher Ava Bredwell. Farrell steps in as an immediate contender for the position. Another player who could see action for the first time at the position is Carlie Muhlbach, who enrolled in January and redshirted this season.
