From a Big Ten title, a home run for the record books, Big Ten honors, and a few big wins, stay updated on the Buckeyes’ top accomplishments across the sporting world.
While much of Buckeye Nation was watching the defending national champions take the field for the Spring Game Saturday, the rest of the spring sports teams were busy making us proud as well.
Here’s what you need to know to stay in the loop on all your favorite OSU spring sports this week.

The back-and-forth battle, which included multiple lead changes, ended with Ohio State on top thanks to a pair of birdies on holes 14 and 15. The team earned a final-round score of 282 (-18). Freshman Vaughn Harber came up big for the Buckeyes with a career-best fourth-place finish after shooting 6-under, while Jack Vojtko shot under par in all three rounds for the first time in his career to finish at 5-under in seventh place.
The Buckeyes will stay in Columbus this weekend as they host the Robert Kepler Intercollegiate at the OSU Golf Club’s Scarlet Course to close out the regular season.
No. 22 Softball tops Penn State thanks to lights-out performance from Reagan Milliken
Ohio State took two games of their three-game road series against Penn State this weekend, clinching the final game, 14-11, after senior Reagan Milliken became just the third Buckeye ever to hit three home runs in the same game.
Milliken went 4-for-5 with 5 RBIs and homers in the fourth, sixth, and seventh innings, and she wasn’t the only Buckeye getting in on the action. Morgan Frye batted 1.000 in the game, going 3-for-3, while Jasmyn Burns added three hits of her own and Skylar Limon tacked on 3 RBIs.

Buckeye bats have been hot all year, and while Milliken’s spectacular showing stood out on Sunday, the Buckeye offense had a lot to show for itself this weekend. During Friday’s series opener, which OSU took, 9-5, the team put six runs on the board with six hits and 5 two-out RBIs during the fourth inning. Then in Saturday’s loss, the Buckeyes earned their 100th home run of the year off a solo shot from Hadley Parisien.
Up next, OSU closes out an eight-game road trip with a midweek game at Dayton on Wednesday before welcoming rival Michigan to Columbus for a three-game series this weekend.
Men’s Volleyball earns the No. 3 seed in the MIVA quarterfinals
After No. 15 Ohio State defeated Quincy, 3-1, in the regular season finale last weekend on the road, the Buckeyes tied for third place in the conference standings, taking the tiebreaker over Lewis to earn themselves a No. 3 seed.
In addition to Saturday’s win, OSU also defeated Quincy, 3-0, on Friday. Saturday was their 10th win in 12 games, marking their third consecutive season with 11 conference wins.

Women’s rowing earns two Big Ten Boat of the Week honors
Though Ohio State’s rowing team was off this weekend, they earned two Big Ten Boat of the Week honors mid-last week after they won seven races against SMU the previous Friday. Their 1V4 and 2V8 boats were recognized for their wins, having won their races by three and four seconds, respectively.
After resting up this week, they’ll head to Sarasota, Florida, for the Big Ten Invite this Friday and Saturday.
