OMAHA — This isn’t unfamiliar territory for Texas Tech.
The Red Raiders have faced elimination three different times during NCAA tournament play this season.
The first time came in the Lubbock Regional when Texas Tech dropped a 10-6 match-up to Dallas Baptist to force a second game against the Patriots.
Behind stellar pitching from Ryan Moseley and Hayde Howard, the Red Raiders defeated Dallas Baptist to advance to the super regionals.
A week later, Texas Tech found itself in the same situation after falling 8-6 to East Carolina in the super regional behind a grand slam by Travis Watkins.
