ORU wins 9-8 to clinch 3rd seed vs. SDSU next week in game 1...Good Guys tried to give it away with two errors in the 9th....hard to see this team winning the Tournament but no one is formidable....:tb-blue:😁

If ORU ends up winning the Summit League Tournament this year, there will be some real angst from the other teams, no doubt.

Can anything more possibly be asked of All-Everything Spencer Henson this season?

Will he be selling programs and singing the national anthem at the conference tournament as well?

Good guys finish off Omaha 13-9 on Senior Day to win the season series 4-2.  Western run-rules Fort Wayne to earn the final spot in next week’s tourney.   Omaha, SDSU, ORU, and WIU will be in Tulsa - and any of these teams could punch their ticket to the NCAA. Look for the winner to earn a #4 seed and a first round matchup at the home stadium of a national seed.  2 and Q.

Henson 3 hits and a HR today....McMurray 4 hits and Keisor 2 hits with 4 Rbi....13-9 win finishes the regular season at 26-24...next up for ORU will be the Jacks at JLJ. :tb-white:

Spoiler

It’s pretty amazing that Spencer Henson finished off his second consecutive Summit League Triple Crown today.  It’s hard enough to win ONE Triple Crown, but two in a row???

.372 BA

17 HRs

49 RBI

 

ORU's win today also guarantees that the Eagles (26-24) will not finish the season with a losing record, which would have been the first losing season since 2013, and the second since 1997.  At least we salvaged not adding insult to injury...

Following Omaha’s fast start in league play, this 2/3 match-up was the best possible scenario.

Just took a lot of drama to get there!

I think I'd rather be playing Omaha.  They lost their last 4 series.  SDSU has been hot and they have 3 very good pitchers.  We beat their #1 pitcher here 1-0.  Josh McMinn needs to have another brilliant game.
