STILLWATER, Okla. - Eight 2001 NCAA tournament teams highlight the 2002 Oklahoma State baseball schedule released today by the baseball office.
On the Cowboys slate this season are 18 teams which finished with 30 or more wins in 2001 and 20 teams that had winning records.
"I believe we have a very balanced schedule this season," stated head coach Tom Holliday. "From the start of the season until the end, each game should be a challenge and this should help us in realizing our ultimate goals in postseason play."
Among the more notable non-conference match ups are contests against 2001 NCAA participants Delaware, Arizona State, Texas-Arlington and Oral Roberts.
OSU has 33 home games on the schedule starting with a season-opening two game series against Prairie View A&M starting on Feb. 10 at 1 p.m.
Some of the non-conference games slated at home are against St. Johns, Texas-Arlington, Louisville, Memphis, San Francisco and Oral Roberts. The Golden Eagles and Cowboys will play a three game weekend series, the first two in Stillwater on April 12-13 and the finale in Tulsa on April 14.
The Cowboys open the Big 12 slate against Texas Tech, which finished second in the Big 12 in 2001, in Stillwater on Friday, Mar. 15.
The rest of the conference slate at home include Kansas, 2001 College World Series participant and Big 12 champion Nebraska and Texas A&M.
OSU will travel to Kansas State, Baylor, Texas and Missouri while closing out the 2002 regular season with the annual Bedlam Series against Oklahoma. The first game will be played in Tulsa on Thursday, May 16 with the remaining two contests switching to Oklahoma City on Friday, May 17 and Saturday, May 18.
