Texas State is headed to Palo Alto, Calif.
In 2019, the maroon and gold sat in the Strahan Arena film room awaiting their fate as the NCAA baseball selection show took place, picking the nation’s top 64 teams. Many of the seniors on this team were underclassmen but they remembered that day. The Bobcats were coming off of a 36-20 season and a Sun Belt regular season championship and expected to have their name called. It wasn’t — Texas State was one of the first four teams left out of the tournament.
After a season cut short in 2020 and a down year in 2021, Texas State flipped the script with a 45-12 overall record this season. The record propelled the Bobcats to another regular season championship and, after 27 minutes of waiting inside the Castro Club at the University Events Center, an NCAA tournament berth — the first since 2011.
