Despite showing some shakiness in his biggest game of the year, Bryce Petty still moved up in ESPN's Heisman Watch. The upcoming game against Oklahoma State, in Stillwater, will probably be the make-or-break game for Petty, as well as for this Baylor team. The Bears need to just keep winning, and winning by a decent margin, to have a chance of jumping Ohio State and Stanford in the BCS, and impressing the human polls is a huge part of that.
Men's tennis' Patrick Pradella advanced to the final round of the consolation draw at the USTA/ITA National Indoor Intercollegiate Championships this Sunday, before falling to UCLA’s sixth-ranked Marcus Giron 6-4, 6-3. Pradella ends his fall season with a 9-4 record in singles play.
Women's tennis went unbeaten on the final day of the Jack Kramer Intercollegiate, with Victoria Kisialeva, Blair Shankle, and Makenzie Croft all earning victories to close out the fall season. The doubles team of Shankle and Croft also won their match over Ohio State's Grainne O'Neil and Noelle Malley. The Lady Bears will return to competition when dual-match season starts in January.
Finally, on this Veteran's Day, a thank you to all who have served this country.
