📈 STOCK UP

🔺 Johnny On The Spot. It was a historic weekend for the BU men’s golf program as the Bears earned their first 54-hole cut at the NCAA Championships since 2017.

Baylor went on tied for 14th at the 30-team event, which tied for the third-best finish in program history.

Leading the charge was a record-breaking showing from Johnny Keefer, who set a program best with a top-15 finish. Keefer fired an even-par 288 for the four rounds to tie for 11th overall.

The previous best was Lorenzo Scotto in 2010, when he finished 25th overall.

All of that came with several injuries and adversity throughout the spring.

These Bears are a historic squad that fought til the very end.

🎙 SIC ‘EM POD: COLE POSEY

On this week’s episode we get to know Baylor Baseball’s Cole Posey,
a fifth year senior from Georgetown, Texas. 

Growing up in a Baylor family, Cole was a huge fan of the Bears,
and always dreamed of suiting up for them one day. And after
a few stops around the country, that dream came true 2 years ago. 

In his final year, the do-it-all first baseman played some of the best ball
of his career, while also pursuing some big dreams away from the diamond.

🤔 SIC ’EM TRIVIA

This season, sophomore sensation Shaylon Govan set a new program record with a .579 on-base percentage, which ranked second in the entire country.

Prior to Govan’s arrival in 2023, how many other Bears in program history had posted an OBP of .500 or higher?

🎉 TRIVIA ANSWER

Answer: 2.

McKenzie Wilson (.534 in 2022) and Ashley Monceaux (.508 in 2007) are the only other two players in program history to reach the .500 OBP mark in a single-season.

Govan has now done it in two consecutive seasons and holds the best and third-best single-season marks of all-time.

🐻 Have a great day, y’all!
