A Crucial Finale
The Oregon State Beavers entered the weekend sitting at No. 7 in the USA Today coaches poll, a testament to a 42‑12 record that has kept them in the conversation for a top‑seed regional hosting.
After dropping the first two games of their series with Air Force, the Beavers now face a make‑or‑break finale that could swing their RPI and determine whether they secure a coveted spot in the NCAA tournament.
Morris Takes the Mound
Freshman right‑hander Trey Morris is slated to take the mound for Oregon State, having posted a 2.12 earned‑run average and limited opponents to just 26 hits over 46⅔ innings this season.
His performance comes on the heels of Ethan Kleinschmit’s win in the series opener, a game that set the tone for a tightly contested battle that remains deadlocked at one win apiece.
With the Statesman Journal providing live updates and highlights, fans will be watching closely as the Beavers look to finish the regular season on a high note and cement their postseason aspirations.
