Big 12 Tournament: Mizzou to play for Championship on Sunday


The Tigers lost to Texas this morning but then came back to beat the Longhorns in the evening game. Led by an incredible pitching performance by Senior Kelly Fick, the #8 seed Tigers head to the final game Sunday. This is the first time ever that the #8 seed has played in the Big 12 tournament Championship Game.

From Tigerboard.com on the post-game press conference:
Coach just told the story of the rescuers finding a Mizzou baseball jersey in the Joplin rubble and how the Tigers have been inspired to press even harder. He then noted that the jersey number is 21, the same as Kelly Fick. He then looked at Kelly and got a tear in his eye.
Championship Game: 1:00 Sunday
