Crouch Headlines Nebraska Greats Jersey Auction

Nebraska Cornhusker legends Eric Crouch, Johnny Dorn and Steven Edlefsen are expected to be at Werner Park as part of the Nebraska Greats Jersey Auction during the Omaha Storm Chasers' matchup against the New Orleans Baby Cakes on Saturday, June 10.

All of those Cornhusker alums are scheduled to be at the ballpark that evening to throw out first pitches. In addition, fans will have a chance to bid on special Nebraska Greats jerseys signed by those alums as part of a post-game live auction. Along with those signed jerseys, Storm Chasers players and coaches will also be wearing Nebraska Greats jerseys that will be auctioned during the game. All auction proceeds will benefit Nebraska Greats Foundation.
In addition, fans will be able to enter a drawing at the Nebraska Greats Foundation table in the Werner Park concourse that evening for the chance to win $500.
The Nebraska Greats Foundation is a non-profit, 501c3 organization that provides financial assistance to former Nebraska collegiate athletes who, as a result of a medical challenge, have exhausted both their insurance and personal resources. The organization is founded and run by former athletes from various Nebraska colleges.
Fans will also want to arrive early that evening, as the first 1,500 fans in attendance will receive a Paulo Orlando "O" Bobblewaist thanks to Omaha - We Don't Coast, 30+ communities that make Omaha - Greater Omaha. Gates will open at 6:00 p.m. that evening, with parking lots open starting at 5:00 p.m.
