Texas infielder Dylan Campbell watches the batter at third base against Louisiana during an NCAA baseball game on Friday, June 2, 2023 in Coral Gables, Fla. Earlier this week, before Texas took off for Coral Gables, Fla., junior outfielder Dylan Campbell said he was too focused on the NCAA tournament to start obsessing over his historic hitting streak.“You turn the page and it’s a new journey,” Campbell said Monday, treating his then-35 game hitting streak like a mundane footnote.
So, on Friday, the Strake Jesuit graduate started a “new streak” in the opening game of the Coral Gables Regional. And in the process, made Big 12 history with a firm single through the left side of the infield duringCampbell’s base knock in the bottom of the sixth inning extended his hitting streak to 36 games, the longest in Big 12 history. He broke a previous tie with Oklahoma State’s Ty Wright, who recorded a hit in 35 straight games in 2007.
“The whole hitting streak is a big, big deal, I think probably more for me and our family than for him,” said Donovan Campbell, Dylan’s father. “You know, everybody asks him about it. He doesn't even think about it. So yeah, he’s just more of a laid back, humble kid and just really doesn't even take.”
