With game two of the Austin Regional serving as a pivotal one, head coach David Pierce elected to start Big 12 Pitcher of the Year Ty Madden. As was the case for much of the season, the move paid off big for the Horns, with Madden tossing an excellent six innings, allowing just seven baserunners and one run while striking out seven.
