ARLINGTON, Texas — Arizona Baseball beat TCU by a score of 2-1 on Saturday night to become the 2025 Big 12 Tournament Champions.

It's the Wildcats' second straight title after winning the final Pac-12 Tournament in 2024.

"Last year was awesome and it was fun," Arizona Baseball Coach, Chip Hale said. "We knew it was the last year and especially for a guy who played in the Pac-10 and then was a head coach in the Pac-12, to see it go away was a sad situation, but we we're super excited to get into the Big-12. I mean what an honor to be Big-12 champions in our first year in the conference."

In the top of the ninth inning, Arizona down 1-0, sophomore Andrew Cain hit a solo home-run to tie the game and send it to extra innings.

The Wildcat's offense continues in the top of the tenth when Maddox Mihalakis gets an RBI single to send Mason White for the final 2-1 score.

White earning the 2025 Phillips 66 Big 12 Baseball Championship Most Outstanding Player. The junior, hitting three home-runs and seven RBI.

"I won the Pac-12 one (Tournament MVP) last year," White said. "Going into that game and Chip told me before just show the conference. So, coming here, I've been in this spot before where it's the end of the year, we're competing to host again and I was just letting it fly and having fun."

Next up, Arizona finds out whether they will host or travel for the NCAA Regional Round. The selection show is Monday at 9:00 a.m.
