Oklahoma State returns to action with its first true road games of the season when the Pokes travel to Phoenix for a four-game series at Grand Canyon beginning Thursday at GCU Ballpark.
The Cowboys opened the season last weekend at the Shriners Children's College Showdown, where they went 1-2 against a field of three ranked teams. They closed the tourney with an 11-1 run-rule win over No. 17 Vanderbilt.
Following the GCU series, OSU is scheduled to open a nine-game homestand at O'Brate Stadium beginning with a midweek contest against Central Arkansas on Feb. 24.
The 2026 season marks OSU's 14th under the direction of head coach Josh Holliday, who is 24 wins shy of 500 for his career.
Grand Canyon began its season by going 1-2 at the MLB Desert Invitational in Arizona.
The Lopes opened with a run-rule win over Northeastern before dropping games to Penn State and Nebraska.
GCU was the preseason pick to finish third in the Mountain West Conference this season behind Nevada and Fresno State. The Lopes are in their first season in the MWC after moving from the WAC.
The Lopes made NCAA Regional appearances in three of the last five seasons (2021, 2022, 2024).
In his fourth season as GCU's head coach, Gregg Wallis owns a career 105-75 record.
