📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Movin’ On. The Cowgirls have enjoyed California so much, they figured they’d stay another day or two.

Entering the NCAA Championships ranked 25th, OSU earned a spot in the final round, sitting 12th after three rounds of stroke play.

Today, the Cowgirls will tee it up for one more round, looking to get in the top-8 and lock down a spot in match play, which begins on Tuesday. OSU is currently six shots off the eighth spot.

🔼 Scorchin’ Hot. Watch out folks, the Pokes are hot.

The OSU baseball team continued to peak at the right time over the weekend, sweeping their way past Arizona State and into this week’s Big 12 Tournament at Globe Like Park in Arlington.

Winners in nine of their final 10 games of the regular season, the Cowboys will be the sixth seed when play gets underway on Wednesday with a 4 pm date against Baylor, whom OSU took two of three from last weekend.

🔼 Runnin’ Man. There have plenty thousands who have laced them up and toed the line to compete in the Big 12 track & field competition over the years, but only TWO have won three conference titles in the 1500m.

OSU’s Fouad Messaoudi is one of them after a dominant performance in the event on Saturday, finishing his career with titles in 2022, 2023 and now 2025. His winning time of 3:37.27 added 10 points for the Cowboys, who finished seventh overall with 50 team points.
