On Tuesday, the baseball team takes their eight-game winning streak and all the momentum that comes with it to Rice University for the first game in the Silver Glove Series.
The Cougars and the Owls have been playing each other on an annual basis since 1972, with the Owls leading the series at 105-79. Tuesday’s game marks the 185th time the two will have played each other. The former conference rivals play a home and away series every year, with the third game being played at Constellation Field in Sugar Land.
“It’s a big game for a lot of reasons,” said head coach Todd Whitting.
