“As a rookie, it’s funny to say ‘my young teammates, but that’s what it is.” is what former #BYUBKB Richie Saunders told the Memphis Commercial Appeal this week after being the Grizzlies 32nd pick in the NBA draft. #GoCougs

Former #BYUbaseball catcher Colin Reuter’s 2-run homer as a DH led Ole Miss to a 6-4 win over host Auburn last night in the opening game of the Super Regional. He played for #GoCougs in 2022-24 #RoadtoOmaha #NCAAtournament #BYUBSB

I forgot to mention UCF, so the #Big12 got six teams in

[Ralph Zobell @RalphZobell]

Champions Kansas & runner-up West Virginia host #RoadtoOmaha Regionals, but #BigXII also has Oklahoma St., Arizona St. & Cincinnati in the #NCAAtournament’s 64-team field. #BYUBSB got a bit of “pub” on ESPN’s show as #GoCougs were shoo-in some footage. #Big12

Regular #BigXII baseball season finish differs from four pre-season predictions #BYUBSB is No. 9 seed (Baylor won the tie-breaker for No. 8 seed) going into this week's #Big12Tournament at Surprise, Ariz. #GoCougs face No. 12 seed Texas Tech on Tuesday at 5:30 pm MDT. #Big12

Floodgates opened in Provo with back-to-back doubles in 4-run 5th frame by Crew McChesney & Tualau Wolfgramm for #BYUBSB after No. 17 Kansas took a 6-0 lead. #GoCougs tied it at 6-all in 6th, but Jayhawks bounced back for a 9-6 win. #BigXII #Big12
