📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Honoring AP. Baylor football will honor the memory of football student-athlete Alex Foster with a helmet decal. The Foster family will attend the home opener, where Alex will be honored with a pregame moment of silence. Foster is forever a member of the Baylor Family and one who left an indelible mark on his teammates and coaches.

🔼 Texas Trio. A trio of Baylor offensive standouts were named to the 2025 Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award watch list — Sawyer Robertson, Bryson Washington, and Josh Cameron. The award recognizes the top offensive player in DI football who also exhibits the enduring characteristics that define Earl Campbell: integrity, performance, teamwork, sportsmanship, drive, community, and tenacity. Nominees must either have played football at and graduated from a Texas High School and/or currently be playing at a Texas-based DI four-year university.

🔼 Rumble In The Rockies. Baylor soccer is headed to Rumble in the Rockies, a tournament hosted by Montana. The Bears will play Denver at 4 p.m. today on ESPN+. This will be the first time since 1999 the Bears have played Denver.

🔼 Medaling Bears. Baylor track & field stars shined on some of the world’s biggest stages last weekend! Demario Prince represented Jamaica and secured a gold medal in the 110-meter hurdles at the NACAC Championships. Nathaniel Ezekiel finished second in the 400-meter hurdles at the Diamond League in Poland. Janae De Gannes took bronze in the long jump at the Pan Am Junior Games.
