Texas vs. UTSA baseball live score: Updates, highlights from NCAA regional
College baseball player forms sweet bond with coach’s daughters
While playing for Coach Frank Avilla Jr., Brady Crabtree formed a special, sibling-like bond with his daughters – a connection that continued well after graduation.
No. 2 seed Texas will look to avoid a stunningly early elimination in the NCAA baseball tournament when it takes on UTSA at UFCU Disch-Falk Field in the Austin Regional on Sunday night.
The game’s a rematch of the Longhorns’ 9-7 loss Saturday to their in-state rivals, which sent Texas to the loser’s bracket for a pair of games Sunday. The Longhorms eliminated Kansas State 15-8 in the afternoon and takes the field just a short time later to keep their season alive. The Roadrunners, meanwhile had the afternoon off.
It’s the third meeting between the programs this season, with the Roadrunners winning the previous two. If the Texas can pull out the win Sunday night, the two teams would square off again Monday, with the winner advancing to the super regional round.
