TGIF Pokes. Late May and Cowboy baseball, it’s a tradition unlike many programs across the country.

Today, in Georgia, OSU hits the field for their 50th NCAA regional appearance, a milestone number only three other programs in the country can claim.

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

⚾️ Showtime Down South
👟 Two Tickets, Please
🇺🇸 All-American Duo
🤠 And much more!

⚾️ SHOWTIME IN THE SOUTH

One of the hottest teams in the country is set to take on the nation’s best as the OSU baseball team hits the field in Athens, Ga. to kick off NCAA Regional action this afternoon against second-seeded Duke.

The Cowboys are making their 12th consecutive NCAA Regional bid and 50th overall, a mark that only Texas (64), Florida State (61) and Miami (50) have reached.

Entering the regional, OSU has won 10 of its past 12 outings.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 They Are Real (All) Americans. One day after bringing home National Championship #12, a pair of Cowboys have a little more hardware to add to the case.

Sophomores Ethan Fang and Preston Stout were both honored with the announcement of the Division I PING First-Team All-Americans by the Golf Coaches Association of America.

The distinction marks the first time since 2019 OSU has had a pair of first-team selections. Both Fang and Stout were selected in April to represent the United States at the Arnold Palmer Cup.

🔼 Under The Lights. Get out the planners now, you’ve got spots to fill.

On Thursday, OSU announced the first three game times and TV assignments for the upcoming 2025 Cowboy football season.

The Cowboys' season opener against UT Martin on Thursday, August 28, kicks at 6:30 p.m. CT on ESPN+ and the Gateway First Bank Turnpike Classic against Tulsa on Friday, September 19, starts at 6 p.m. CT on ESPN.

In addition, OSU’s much anticipated trip to Oregon on Sept. 6th is set for a 2:30 pm CT kickoff on CBS.

🔼 Two Tickets, Please. On Thursday, it was the Cowgirls turn to hit the track at NCAA West Prelims.

A pair of OSU standouts punched their tickets to Eugene, led by school record holder Emma Robbins, who got the day started for the Pokes by finishing second in the hammer throw and earning a spot in the NCAA Championships.

And in the last event of the night, Josphine Mwaura battled her way into the 12th and final qualifying spot in the 10,000m to punch her ticket.

🔼 All American Girl. Add another line to the 2025 portion of Ruby Meylan’s softball resume.

On Wednesday evening, the junior hurler was named to the NFCA All-America second team.

Meylan is now a two-time NFCA All-American after being named to the third team in 2023 while at her previous school, Washington. She becomes OSU's 53rd All-America selection, extending the program's streak to 10 consecutive years with at least one selection – which equates to every year of the Coach Gajewski era and is the longest streak in program history.

A unanimous selection to the All-Big 12 first team, Meylan was also named to the NFCA Midwest All-Region first team and was the only pitcher in the conference to collect three Big 12 Pitcher of the Week honors.

⛳️ MAKE IT A DOZEN

Mission Complete.

The OSU men’s golf team finished what they started on Wednesday evening,
rollingto a 3-1 victory over Virginia to bring home the program’s
12th national championship.

The title was OSU's second under head coach Alan Bratton, who guided
the Cowboys to a national championship in 2018 in Stillwater. Bratton
was also victorious as a player (1995) and assistant coach (2006).

Additionally, the victory was OSU's second in four championship match
appearances since the implementation of the current format in 2009.

The second-ranked Cowboys ended the season on a five-tournament
winning streak and won seven events overall on the year.
