The Oklahoma State Cowboys are preparing to make another appearance in the NCAA Baseball Tournament.

The NCAA is set to release the bracket for the 64-team field on Monday. The Cowboys (37-2) did not win the Big 12 Tournament, which held an automatic bid to the tournament. Oklahoma State fell to Kansas, 9-2, in the semifinals. The Jayhawks won the tournament and the automatic bid by beating West Virginia on Saturday.

The Cowboys will have to get into the tournament as an at-large team. Entering Monday D1 Baseball had the Cowboys among the top 32 seeds in the tournament.

The Cowboys are seeking their 13th straight appearance in the NCAA Tournament, dating back to 2013 and not including the 2020 season which was erased due to COVID-19. OSU has been the tournament every year under head coach Josh Holliday but has not been the Men’s College World Series since 2016.
