OKLAHOMA CITY — For the second time in three years, the Cowboys are Big 12 Tournament Champions.
The Oklahoma State baseball team defeated West Virginia 5-2 in Sunday’s championship game after beating TCU 2-1 in extra innings just a few hours earlier. The Cowboys played five games this weekend, only dropping one, and will now wait their fate in terms of postseason play.
Here are five thoughts from a long weekend at Bricktown Ballpark.

They call OSU pitching coach Rob Walton the wizard, and he pulled off his magic again.
Despite having to play an extra game after losing to TCU on Saturday, Walton stuck to his guns and held Brett Standlee to start the tournament’s championship game, not sure if OSU would make it.
