This weekend the Houston Cougars will welcome the #22 Arizona State Sun Devils to Schroeder Park for a three‑game series that doubles as the team’s Senior Weekend.
Senior Weekend Celebration
Eleven members of the 2026 senior class will be honored on the field, and graduates from the class of 2026 who wear a cap and gown can attend the games free of charge.
The Cougars enter the series fresh off a sweep of the Silver Glove Series, highlighted by a 14‑3 victory over Rice in the finale, and they look to build on a schedule that already includes wins over nationally ranked opponents.
Ranked Victories and Alumni Impact
Houston boasts three wins against ranked teams this season, including victories over #4 Texas and #6 Alabama, and the program has already posted a 4‑0 start at the Puerto Rico Challenge, defeating No. 21 Wake Forest.
The roster’s major‑league presence adds another layer of excitement, with former Cougars John King, Jared Triolo and Connor Wong all named to MLB Opening Day rosters, joining a total of 15 alumni currently playing in the majors or minors.
Looking ahead, the Cougars face a loaded 2026 slate that includes five opponents who finished the previous year in the Top 25 of the NCAA RPI, a challenge that could shape their national standing.
