📈 STOCK UP
🔼 Connect Four. For the first time since 2019, the Baylor baseball program is 4-0.
Five Bears hurlers combined to scatter eight hits and allow no runs in Tuesday’s 5-0 victory over visiting UTSA. It marked Baylor's first shutout since March 14, 2023, against Rice.
The Bears received contributions from up and down the lineup, as redshirt sophomore infielder Jack Little produced three hits out of the leadoff spot and senior infielder Tyriq Kemp added three hits. Redshirt senior outfielder Enzo Apodaca provided the spark, a two-run home run in the third inning for his first blast of the season.
🔼 The Hall Call. A Texas legend took her rightful place among the greats this past weekend.
All-time Baylor great Britney Griner was officially inducted as part of the Texas Sports Hall of Fame Class of 2025 this past weekend.
The Houston native was a high school All-American before bursting onto the national scene with the Bears, garnering three collegiate All-American honors and three Big 12 Player of the Year accolades. The biggest accomplishment came in 2012 when she helped lead BU to the national championship.
🔼 Grand Opening. It was truly a grand opening for the Baylor baseball team on Friday night and the man leading the way was honored for his performance on Tuesday.
Junior lefty Ethan Calder was named Big 12 Co-Pitcher of the Week after going five innings, allowing just one run and two hits, while striking out a career-high 13 batters for the Bears.
🎥 BAYLOR+: COURT IS IN SESSION
Hard to believe it, but the 2025 women’s tennis season
is already a month old as the Bears are off to a strong 8-1 start to the year.
With some new faces mixed with some returners, Coach Joey Scrivano
is excited for what this spring may bring on the courts for BU.

🎥 BAYLOR+: ALONG FOR THE RIDE
The hunt is on.
Sure, the top-ranked Baylor Acrobatics & Tumbling team will be
the hunted this season, but the Bears have a hunt of their own they are working on.
Coach Fee and Baylor are in the midst of running
towards a 10TH STRAIGHT National Championships.
There’s no better place to go along for the ride than Baylor+. Stay tuned throughout the spring to enjoy the story lines, the high flying action and so much more!
