On Tuesday night, the Cowboys picked up their eighth win in the past 10 days, toppling Oral Roberts, 9-0, at O’Brate Stadium.

Junior Janzen Keisel tossed four shutout innings to lead a stable of six different OSU hurlers who allowed just two hits and six total baserunners all night, while striking out 12 Golden Eagle hitters.

Offensively, Carson Benge had another big night, finishing 3-for-5 with three RBIs and his fifth HR of the season.
