Texas baseball holds steady at No. 1 after a 2-1 weekend in Houston

No. 1 Texas made a statement over the weekend.

No. 1 Texas flexed its muscles over the weekend against a stacked field at the Shriners College Classic in Houston.

The Longhorns went 2-1 on the weekend, highlighted by victories over No. 10 Tennessee and No. 12 LSU. Improving its record against SEC opponents to a perfect 5-0 on the young season.

Texas did lose the weekend finale to UCLA after Tanner Witt was scratched from his start for “precautionary reasons.” Witt’s long-term status is still unknown at this point.

D1Baseball kept Texas at the top of its latest top 25 rankings after the successful weekend at Minute Maid Park. Oklahoma State, Texas Tech and TCU join Texas as Big 12 teams who made the cut.

Texas will take its 11-1 record into San Marcos on Tuesday to battle it out against the red-hot Texas State Bobcats, who just took a series on road over No. 16 Arizona.
