Cowboy Baseball Earns 50th NCAA Regional Bid
May 26, 2025 | Cowboy Baseball
STILLWATER – Oklahoma State extended its streak of NCAA Regional bids to 12 as the Cowboys were awarded an at-large berth and No. 3 seed and will be part of the NCAA Athens Regional that includes host and No. 7 national seed Georgia, second-seeded Duke and No. 4 seed Binghamton.
The Cowboys are 28-23 on the season and making the 50th NCAA Regional appearance in program history, which is tied for the third most all time with Miami (FL); only Texas (64) and Florida State (61) have more. OSU's 12 consecutive Regional appearances is the fourth longest current streak in the nation behind Vanderbilt, LSU and Florida.
"I'm so thrilled for this team for the fact that from now on, they'll never, ever quit at anything they do because they'll have something to look back on and say, 'Hey, when something seems like a big task or hard to figure out or I'm not sure I can do this,' they'll have this experience to draw from," said OSU head coach Josh Holliday, who has led the Cowboys to the NCAA tourney in each of his years at the helm. "It's been an unbelievable thing to watch the kids stay with the challenge, to respond to it and then to find themselves and the success.
"We're really thankful for this opportunity. Going into this, you don't know where you fit in the grand scheme of things, but we're honored that we were chosen. A lot of good teams were in the mix for this opportunity. Being chosen for it, having earned it and being given a chance to continue on is a lot for where we've been as a team and what we've fought to do."
Georgia is 42-15 on the season, including a 29-4 mark at home. Duke will bring a 37-19 record to Athens, while Binghamton won the America East Conference championship and is 29-24.
The Athens Regional is one of 16 held across the country this weekend, each of which involves four teams and is a double elimination format. The schedule for the Athens Regional is:
