Longhorns Cruise Past Bison For A 7-2 Victory: Live Game Log

The Longhorns continue their home stand with the start of a midweek series against the Bison.

The Texas Longhorns (9-7) are back in action as they kick off a two-game midweek series against the North Dakota State Bison (1-14). 

Texas finds itself in the middle of a 14-game home stand, a home stand that has done wonders for a team that was struggling to find its footing out of the gate. Now, though, the Longhorns enter Tuesday night riding a five-game winning streak and with plenty of momentum. 

They are fresh off a dominant weekend showing against the Manhattan Jaspers, outscoring them 34-11 in the three-game sweep - with the offense and pitching clicking at the same time consistently for the first time this season. 

Now, though, the Longhorns must turn their attention to a struggling North Dakota State that has lost 11 straight games. 

Stay tuned as we provide live updates when the Longhorns take on the Bison on Tuesday night from Disch-Falk Field. 

Live updates will be available after first pitch.
