Kansas Baseball Secures 40th Win Shuts Out No. 14 West Virginia

The Kansas Jayhawks secured a 3-0 victory over the No. 14 West Virginia Mountaineers, marking their 40th win of the season, the most in program history. Sophomore pitcher Dominic Voegele delivered a dominant performance with seven scoreless innings and six strikeouts, while senior players Michael Brooks and Ian Francis contributed solo home runs in the eighth and ninth innings. This win ties Kansas for second in the Big 12 standings and bolsters their position as a two-seed in NCAA Tournament projections. Despite the loss, West Virginia clinched the Big 12 regular season title and will enter the conference tournament as the No. 1 seed with a first-round bye. The Mountaineers' strong season under first-year head coach Steve Sabins includes their first outright Big 12 title in program history and the first outright title in any major sport since joining the conference. Both teams aim to continue building momentum as they approach postseason play, with Kansas looking to add more key wins in the upcoming series and West Virginia preparing for the Big 12 Tournament.
