Facing elimination, the Oklahoma State baseball team had to muster its team for a winner-take-all matchup.
Many of the seniors on the team were fighting to get back to the Super Regionals for the first time since their freshman year.
Once again facing Connecticut, the Cowboys defeated the Huskies, 3-1, advancing to the Super Regionals on Monday at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark.
With a shortened pitching rotation, coach Josh Holliday gave senior Joe Lienhard the start.
Leinhard's last appearance was against Texas Christian in the Big 12 tournament.
