Baylor baseball hosted the top team in the Big 12, No. 12 University of Texas, and gave the Longhorns a run for their money at Baylor Ballpark this weekend.

“My dad always impressed me, the older he got, the more it was about his student-athletes and what kind of men, fathers and husbands they are,” Drew said. “When past players come in, to hear about their success and how they’re doing, personally I care most about that.”

“Part of that’s [being] a young team, part of that’s [being] a new team,” Posey said. “But we’re really coming together, getting to know one another, trusting the coaches, and trusting each other. We’re really starting to believe that we can go out there, compete and be successful.”

The Bears wrapped up their first of four games in four days, besting the Abilene Christian University Wildcats, 15-6, Thursday afternoon at Poly Wells Field in Abilene.

“My goal was just to have fun, no pressure at all, and that’s what I went out and did,” Callaway said. “It was a good last ride. I’m so glad that I was able to experience my five years at Baylor.”

As the Baylor football season turns over and new faces hope to shine, fifth-year senior offensive lineman Clark Barrington stepped into his position room as the oldest and most experienced athlete.

The Bears have been here before, as they knocked off No. 1 Auburn University, 8-7, in the 2021 NCEA quarterfinals.

Rather than searching for Easter eggs, the Bears went hunting for victories over the weekend.
