Daily Bullets (June 3): Pokes Lose First Shot at Florida Gators, Saddle Up for Another Chance Today

Thanks for stopping by – here’s your daily dose of Oklahoma State sports news.

Scores

Baseball: Florida 5, OSU 2

OSU Bullets

• Cowboys lost in the Regional Final last night 5 to 2 – get another shot at the Florida Gators today to advance to a Super Regional series against Clemson 

• Over the weekend a pair of Cowboys were announced for the next Wrestling Hall of Fame class (OKState.com)

• Year two with Alan Bowman starting – and not in a competition in the spring/summer – could pay dividends: 

…(T)he context of Bowman’s first year in Stillwater also matters. Yes, he had about as much college experience as possible, but he was entering a new system. And while entering that new system, he was sharing reps and didn’t get the reins fully handed to him until conference play.

Add onto that, he played next to the best running back in college football last season, so he wasn’t asked to be Mason Rudolph. He just needed to find a way to finish with more points than the other team.
