The Wildcats will bring a nine‑game August winning streak to a close on August 30, 2026, as they welcome the Cornhuskers to their home field for the final contest of the month.
Under head coach Colleen Corbin, the first woman to lead the program, Kansas State has turned August into a showcase of dominance, posting a 9‑0 record in the month and setting a school benchmark for early‑season scoring.
A Record‑Breaking August
Goalkeeper Maddie Sibbing has been a cornerstone of that run, posting eleven shutouts this season and rewriting the program’s record books with a level of consistency that has left opponents scrambling for chances.
Offensively, players such as McKinnan Braswell and Kennedy Miller have delivered decisive moments, with Braswell striking for a game‑winning goal in the sixth minute against Missouri State and Miller opening her collegiate scoring tally at Buser Family Park. The team’s attacking rhythm is underscored by a 54‑7 shot advantage over recent opponents, including a 21‑2 margin in shots on goal that highlights their control.
Nebraska arrives after a four‑game homestand that left them at 1‑1‑2, and they will be led by coach John Walker as they embark on a road trip that includes the Kansas State showdown. The match will be streamed live on ESPN+, where veteran announcers Brian Smoller, Oscar Montenegro and Riley Schalk will provide play‑by‑play commentary.
With a blend of defensive resilience, record‑setting offense and a coaching staff that continues to break new ground, Kansas State looks to extend its August legacy and finish the home stand on a high note.
