Coach Steven Trout’s strategy of keeping key players and adding portal talent aims to make Texas State a competitive force in its inaugural Pac‑12 season.

The Bobcats shattered offensive records, earned their first at‑large NCAA Tournament berth since 2022, and showcased a blend of power hitting and emerging pitching talent despite defensive lapses.

Despite a roster depleted by injuries, Texas State’s baseball team rallied to set a new home‑run record, earn an NCAA Tournament spot and position itself for a move to the Pac‑12.

From breaking a home‑run record once held by Paul Goldschmidt to navigating injuries and tactical adjustments, Chase Mora’s career at Texas State blends statistical dominance with unwavering commitment to his team and fans.

A 19‑4 loss to UTSA sparked a post‑game altercation between Texas State and UTSA coaches, centering on a home‑run celebration and accusations of targeted pitching.
