TGIF OSU Fam. This weekend, we’ve got a family reunion going on at BPS!

That’s right, the Cowboys are back on the gridiron TOMORROW with the annual Orange and White Scrimmage to round out their spring camp.

What’s all stirring in today’s Brew? Check it out below!

🏈 Back at BPS
⛳️ What A Showing
🎥 OSUMax: Cowboys Talking Ball
🤠 And much more!

🎥 TALKIN’ BALL

It’s on April but there’s no better time to talk some Cowboy football
than the present, right?

Let’s check in with how spring ball is rolling along.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Back At BPS. Want to meet the Cowboys? Ready to check out the new faces?

Wait no longer as the Orange and White Scrimmage is set to kick off tomorrow at BPS at 1 pm with gates open at 12:30.

🔼 Moving On. This time of year, it’s about surviving and advancing.

That’s what the OSU men’s tennis team did on Thursday, grinding out a 4-3 victory in the opening round of the Big 12 Championship to earn their third straight Big 12 quarterfinal appearance.

Up next for the Cowboys? Top-seeded and #2 nationally-ranked TCU tomorrow night in Waco.

🔼 What A Showing. One thing is for sure, nobody wants to see the OSU women’s golf team in their field after their showing this week at the Big 12 Championship.

The Cowgirls blitzed the course all week long and were a part of history, playing in the first-ever sudden death playoff to determine the champion.

With OSU, Arizona and Arizona State all at 19-over par through 54 holes, golfers from each of three schools retook the course for a unique tiebreaker that saw five the Cowgirls simultaneously facing their Wildcat and Sun Devil counterparts on five different holes around the course. Arizona posted the lowest aggregate score (20) to claim the team trophy over runners-up ASU (21) and OSU (22).

Two Cowgirls earned All-Big 12 status as top-10 individual finishers. Marta Sikchenko and Grace Kilcrease each grabbed a share of fifth place at 3-over par -- five shots behind medalist Sophie Bert from Kansas State.

OSU finished the tournament with 45 birdies -- most among a 14-team field that includes 10 of the nation's top 40 squads -- and also posted the best par-5 stroke average at 8-under.

🔼 Rollin’ With Ruby. Led by a dominant performance in the circle from Ruby Meylan, the 21st-ranked OSU softball squad rolled to a 7-0 victory in the series opener at UCF on Thursday night.

In a complete game shutout, Meylan allowed just four baserunners all game, while striking out 10 to lead the way for the Cowgirls.

It was at pitcher’s duel for much of the night until the OSU offense came alive in the seventh, beginning with Rosie Davis singling in Megan Delgadillo to break the scorelss tie. In the next at-bat, Audrey Schneidmiller blasted her first home run of the season with Davis and Tallen Edwards on base. Claire Timm hit an RBI groundout to score pinch runner Sophie Page, and a UCF fielding error off a single from Delgadillo allowed pinch runner Tara Vandewater and Rachael Hathoot to score.   

🎥 OSUMAX: KONVERSATIONS WITH KEELEY

Oklahoma State transfer catcher Keeley Johnson is in her element as one
of the big personalities on the 2025 OSU Softball team.

During the season catch Keeley with her teammates in her series called
Konversations with Keeley. Up first is a trip to Georgia as the Cowgirls
face Georgia, Georgia Tech and Penn State.
