No. 14 Baylor softball hadn’t defeated No. 7 Oklahoma State since March 23, 2019, in Waco.
In a hard-fought contest, the Bears came up just short against the Cyclones in the quarterfinals of the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship.
The Bears outscored the Lady Raiders 19-10 in the fourth quarter to secure the 11-point victory in the second round of the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship.
Backed by a two-out fourth-inning rally and the second complete game of the year for senior right-handed pitcher Aliyah Binford, No. 14 Baylor softball willed its way past Penn State 4-1 on Wednesday evening at Getterman Stadium.
