Texas Tech Baseball – Big 12 Champions

May 20, 2017 by Brad Tollefson Leave a Comment

For the second straight year, the Texas Tech baseball team were named Big 12 champions in the regular season. Ok. Well, technically they’re co-champions this year. Either way, the Red Raiders hoisted the trophy up in the air again.

You can also see more photos fromĀ games 1, 2 and 3 on the A-J.

Game 1

The Red Raiders were down for a couple innings but eventually came back to win the first game 10-6.
