Oklahoma Big Eight baseball champions, who have qualified for the College World Series starting in in a a next week, however, have clearly earned the tag while winning a championship. The young Cowboy baseballers there are only two seniors on the roster have spoiled a lot of things by qualifying for the College World Series, not the least of which were the post-school session plans of several O-State officials. Appetites, Publicity, Fishing Tho first thing the Cowboys spoiled was Oklahoma coach Jack Baer's appetite for an Omaha steak when they won three final regular season games from Kansas while Oklanoma was losing three to Colorado, giving O-State the league crown by three percentage points.

The biggest thing they spoiled was what was already being billed as a classic College World Series opening night pitching duel between Ohio Steve Arlin and St. John Marcum, regarded as the top two pitchers in collegiate baseball this season. The Cowboys ended those promotion thoughts by defeating St. Louis and Marcum in the district playoffs last weekend. That's not all these kids beamed O-State coach Chet Bryan in discussing the Marcum-Arlin duel.

No Bets In Stillwater But going into the final two days cff the Big Eight season, you have gotten a bet even in Stillwater thaf the Cowboys would get a chance at St. Louis. Oklahoma needed only a single win or even a rainout In ther final three games with Colorado to cinch the championship. felt the best Colorado could do against Oklahoma was win two of Brjan explains.

we made up our minds that we were going to win ail three from The C-Staters did win all three and got help from both the weatherman and Colorado as the Buffs stopped OU three times, giving the Cowboys the title. Hoping Defense Bounces Back Oklahoma State won early in the season on pitching and defense, then the hitters went to work toward the end as the defense fell apart. Bryan is hoping he can get all three phases working together in the College World Series. made nearly as many errors in the two games against St. he notes, we did in the entire Big Eight season.

But our hitting improved toward the end. pitchers throw the ball past anyone in Bryan continues, get it over the plate and 1 just hope we can catch the ball up The Cowboys are making their sixth trip to Omaha, having won one NCAA championship, finishing second once, third twice ana fourth once.
