📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Stormin’ Norman. The dance is set for the Baylor women’s golf team.

On Wednesday, the Bears learned its postseason fate as BU was selected as the #7 seed at the NCAA Norman Regional at the 2025 NCAA Women’s Golf Regionals.

The three-day tournament will be played May 5-7 at Jimmie Austin OU Golf Club in Norman, Okla.
 
The Bears will be appearing in an NCAA Tournament for the 12th time in the last 13 possible seasons during Goble's tenure. BU was a No. 7 seed in the Las Vegas Regional in 2024, finishing tied for fourth to clinch its fourth-straight NCAA Championship appearance and sixth in the last seven seasons, one of just eight programs to accomplish that feat.

🔼 Show Stopper. The show stops with Gabe Craig.

The sixth-year senior has been outstanding for the Baylor baseball squad this spring and on Wednesday, his success was recognized.

Craig was named to the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) Stopper of the Year Award Midseason Watch List. Fifty-six of the nation's top relief pitchers were included on the midseason list for the 20^th annual award, which recognizes the best reliever in college baseball.
 
In 17 appearances so far this season, Craig has been outstanding out of the BU bullpen with a 2-0 record and a 0.95 ERA. He has earned six saves and struck out 30 batters while walking just two across 19 innings of work. Craig owns an impressive 0.53 WHIP, having allowed just eight hits, and has held opponents to a .129 batting average.
