<p class="p2"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">• The Bears are coming off their first true road series of the year as they took two-of-three at Kansas to sit atop the Big 12 standings with Oklahoma State at 5-1. The Bears won the doubleheader on Saturday over
Kansas to stretch their winning streak to seven-straight games before dropping the series finale on Sunday. Overall, the Bears were 4-1 last week as they took both midweek contests over Texas Southern. The bats continued to be on fire as they outscored their
opponents, 44-19 on the week.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Rodriguez came on March 25, 2016 in Dallas, as they Bears dropped the front end of a two-game midweek series, 5-3. The Bears bounced back to win game two, 19-6. Last year at DBU, Tuesday’s projected starter, Jacob Ashkinos, threw 4.0 innings in relief in a
scheduled staff day, holding the Patriots to just one hit and striking out a career-best nine batters while walking just two.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="p2"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">• The Bears won their series at Kansas by winning games one and two in doubleheader fashion on Saturday, March 30 vs. the Jayhawks. The conference doubleheader victory is the first time in program history since the
Bears did so on March 3, 2010 at Missouri. The Bears were led by Nick Loftin who was 8-for-15 in the series against the Jayhawks. On the pitching side, the Bears got two quality starts on Saturday, as Paul Dickens through 6.0 innings, allowing just two runs
while striking out a career-best 12 batters. Then in game two of the doubleheader, Jimmy Winston pitched a career-best 7.0 shutout innings, striking out a career-high five batters.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
