Bears to make first appearance at Dell Diamond since 2021
ROUND ROCK, Texas – Baylor baseball is set to take part in the 2026 Round Rock Classic, as announced Tuesday by Peak Events.
Â
The Bears will join Oregon State, Purdue and Southern Miss as part of the four-team field for the Feb. 20-22 weekend tournament. BU will be making its second appearance at the Dell Diamond-hosted event and first since the second annual edition in 2021.
Â
In 2021, the Bears went 1-2 at the Round Rock Classic, picking up a win over No. 17 Auburn but dropping contests to Texas A&M and No. 25 Oklahoma. Prior to that tournament, Baylor had played just one previous game at Dell Diamond, a 5-1 win over Texas State in 2012.
Â
This will mark the second-consecutive year that BU faces Oregon State in a non-conference weekend tournament, having battled the then No. 8 Beavers to a 4-3 loss at Globe Life Field a year ago. Baylor is 1-1 all-time against OSU, with its previous win coming at the 2005 College World Series.
Â
BU is 3-0 all-time against Purdue, having swept a weekend series over the Boilermakers in Waco in 2008, with each game being decided by just one run. The Bears are 3-1 against Southern Miss in the all-time series, though the two sides have not met since 2003, when BU eliminated the host Golden Eagles from the Hattiesburg Regional.
Â
Tickets can be purchased on a per-day basis or as a weekend package in select seating sections. Both reserved and general admission options are now available at www.peak.events.
Â
All games are set to be broadcast exclusively via D1Baseball.com.
