A Milestone Night in Austin
The Texas Longhorns erupted for a 13-6 victory over the Tennessee Volunteers, a win that cemented the program’s 1,500th triumph in conference play — a first in college baseball history.
At the heart of the offensive onslaught was senior slugger Casey Borba, who launched two home runs and drove in six runs. His 31st career blast placed him ninth on the Longhorns’ all‑time list, underscoring his impact on the team’s legacy.
Freshman phenom Anthony Pack Jr. delivered the decisive blow with a go‑ahead homer in the third inning, shifting momentum early in the contest.
The pitching staff was equally impressive. Reliever Haiden Leffew earned the win with five strikeouts over five shutout innings, while starter Ruger Riojas recorded his 100th strikeout of the season, highlighting the depth of the rotation.
Texas’ bullpen limited the Volunteers to just two runs over the final five frames, preserving the lead and sealing the victory.
The Longhorns will close out their regular season at home against Missouri, a matchup that promises to add another chapter to a historic campaign.
