It's likely that UC has secured a spot in the NCAAs at this point. Cross is on the list for a possible BIG 12 POY award

The regular season came to a close on the wrong side of the score. KSU ran out quickly to a 6-0 lead, then extended it to 9-2 in the 3rd. UC cut it to 9-5, but it ended there.

The B12 bracket has been set. Okie State won back-to-back upsets over ASU and surprisingly inched ahead of UC for the #7 seed. The #8 Bearcats will play #9 TX Tech on Wednesday afternoon at 12:30 ET on ESPNU. The winner will advance to meet #1 WV on Thursday at the same time (ESPN+).

Kerrington Cross is your unanimous Big XII POTY

[bearcatjd]

Wow! What a great achievement. Congrats to Kerrington & hopefully we get in the CWS!

With the B12 tourney underway (BYU & ASU are in the top of the 2nd inning), the Bearcats are #34 in the RPI (#4 among B12 teams). There are no B12 teams in the Top 20 (KU #23, WV #28, KSU #32).

UC's matchup against TTU is scheduled to begin at 1:30 ET (ESPNU & ESPN+). With the length of NCAA games, that first pitch time seems dubious.

In the first week of April, the Cats took 2 of 3 games in Lubbock, scoring exactly 8 runs each time. The Red Raiders, who played a very strong OOC schedule (#6), are ranked #80 and are in need of a B12 championship to reach the NCAA tourney. They will be desperate.

TCU? 17th?

TCU? 17th?

My bad. I missed that one.

The BYU-ASU game ended more quickly than anticipated. Neither team put up any significant offense, with the Cougars winning, 2-0. So, UC's game should start roughly on time.

M 5: UC 4, TTU 1. Nathan Taylor dealing. He had a very busy 3rd inning but worked out of it with just the single run scored.

M 6: 4-2. Long bomb to LCF.

E 6: 5-2. Kerrington Cross hit a routine grounder to 3B with 2 outs and a runner at 3B. The throw was high, resulting in an unearned run.

M 7: 5-3. 2-out RBI 2B. Nathan Taylor well over 100 pitches. He has to be done for the day.

B 7: Quinton Coats just launched one 431' to LCF. 6-3.
