TCU Baseball Suffers Record Setting Loss to Arizona State

26. 512. 3/15 BB vs ASU. 9. 466. Final
The ball was flying on a windy Saturday afternoon. There were 38 total hits and 35 runs scored. Unfortunately for TCU, Arizona State was responsible for the majority of the offense, as they dominated from start to finish in a 26-9 win.
Mason Brassfield got the start for the Horned Frogs and it ended pretty quickly. On the first batter of the game, Kyle Walker hit a solo shot to left field to open up the scoring. The Sun Devils tacked on three more runs to make it 4-0 through one. Brassfield went one inning giving up seven hits and six runs.
The Sun Devils’ offensive clinic continued in the second inning off Mason Bixby. A six-run second inning highlighted by a three-run blast from Isaiah Jackson made it 10-0. He went 4-6 with two homers and six RBIs. Arizona State continued to pour on while TCU had no response.
Jack Martinez was terrific for Arizona State. He threw 5.2 shutout innings while surrendering just two hits and struck out seven hitters. Through seven innings, ASU scored a run in each inning and led 24-0. It left a stunned look on the entire TCU dugout, and it took until the eighth inning for the bats to wake up.
The Frogs sent 12 hitters to the plate and scored seven runs as Jack Arthur poked a single to left field to break up the shutout. Sawyer Strosnider, Jack Bell, and Brody Green each had RBI hits.
The 28 hits surrendered by TCU pitching are the most in school history, and the 26 runs tied a school record. To add insult to injury, the Frogs committed four errors, which led to eight unearned runs. It was a tough day at the ballpark for TCU and a loss they’ll need to shake off immediately. The Horned Frogs drop to 14-5 while ASU goes to 13-6.
On a positive note, Strosnider continues to swing a hot bat and extended his hit streak to eight games. Chase Brunson also extended his hitting streak to 13 games. Despite all that, the Horned Frogs still have an opportunity to win the series on Sunday. First pitch is set for 1 p.m. and will be televised on ESPN+.

Caleb Love scores 27 to lead Arizona Wildcats over Texas Tech and into Big 12 final

Here’s what you need to know about the University of Arizona
UA was established in 1885, and its main campus is in Tucson. The Wildcats once had a live bobcat named Rufus as a mascot.
The Republic
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Caleb Love scored 27 points to lead the Arizona Wildcats over shorthanded Texas Tech 86-80 in a Big 12 tournament semifinal game Friday at T-Mobile Center.
Arizona’s rubber-match win, coming after the teams split the regular-season series, moved Arizona to 22-11 and into the Big 12 tournament championship game against Houston at 3 p.m. Saturday. It also may have put the Wildcats back in consideration for a preferential top four NCAA Tournament seed.
Texas Tech dropped to 25-8 and is projected to receive a No. 3 seed on Sunday.
Arizona shot 50% and held Texas Tech to just 42%, though the Red Raiders hit over 50% of their field goals in the second half to keep the game within single digits for most of the second half.
Love scored his 27 points on 10-for-15 shooting while hitting 5 of 8 3-pointers. KJ Lewis added 12 points, eight rebounds and six assists despite continuing to deal with a sore right wrist, ripping off a wrap over it during the first half.
Kevin Overton led Texas Tech with 19 points but the Red Raiders were playing without two of their top three scorers: All-Big 12 first team forward Darrion Williams wore a boot Friday after playing against Baylor in a Thursday quarterfinal game, and forward Chance McMillian did not play because of an upper body strain.
In addition, Texas Tech forward JT Toppin, the Big 12’s Player of the Year, threw up in a trash can in a tunnel adjacent to the court because of over-hydration, according to ESPN’s coverage of the game. Toppin had just 10 points and five rebounds in 24 minutes while missing both 3-pointers he took.
Because the Big 12 tournament semifinals didn’t have either Kansas, Kansas State or Iowa State for the first time ever, depriving the event of nearby rooting interest, the Wildcats’ fan support was audible inside the half-empty T-Mobile Center.
While it wasn’t the sort of “McKale North” atmosphere supporting the Wildcats at recent Pac-12 Tournaments, UA fans were the biggest group on hand for the late semifinal game Friday.
Leading 47-39 at halftime, Arizona took early second half leads of up to 14 points before the Red Raiders chipped away. TTU scored seven straight points, capped by a 3-pointer from Overton, to cut UA’s lead to 64-59 with 9:08 left.
Overton later hit his fourth 3 from the right corner to pull the Red Raiders within 70-66 with 6:14 left and at that point, TTU was shooting 57.1% from the field after making only 32.4% in the first half.
But Texas Tech never came any closer from there.
In the first half, Love scored 17 points while Arizona held Texas Tech to just 32.4% percent shooting and took a 49-37 halftime lead.
Arizona shot 65.4% from the field, though the Red Raiders tied UA with 17 rebounds and scored four more points at the free-throw line.
The Wildcats outscored the Red Raiders 9-4 over the final 2:01 of what was a one-possession game for most of the first half, with little-used point guard Conrad Martinez turning a steal into a layup with 1:12 to go.
The Wildcats jumped out to a 9-0 lead, with Love scoring the first seven points of the game off a 3-pointer, a 12-footer and two free throws.But Texas Tech hit 5 of 6 3s over the next six minutes to take a 22-19 lead after Christian Anderson and Kevin Overton hit 3s on successive TTU possessions.
The game score remained with three points, with Texas Tech missing its final 12 3-pointers of the half, until Townsend hit a pair of free throws to give UA a 40-35 lead with 2:01 left in the half.
Arizona entered Friday’s game at 21-11 and Texas Tech was 25-7. The Red Raiders are fighting for a potential No. 2 NCAA Tournament while UA is projected to be hovering between a 4 and 5.
