West Virginia will now play the winner of the #6 TCU vs #3 Texas Tech after taking down the #2 seeded Oklahoma State Cowboys in the opening round of the Big 12 Tournament. The Mountaineers used 13 hits to plate 8 runs. Five OSU errors also helped undue all the good the Cowboys did in the regular season when the Cowboys won the season series 2-1.
In the second inning, First Team All Big 12 infielder Kyle Gray singled before advancing to second when Tyler Doanes was hit. Both runners advanced to third on a balk before Ivan Gonzalez brought both home with a single.
