Sports Columnist on the State of the Bobcats By Reily Chestnut Sports Director My staff and I take serious pride in being the line that people can dial for everything “Texas State Bobcats.” Sometimes it feels like KTSW Sports is on an island surrounded by apathetic or disinterested San Marcans. However, for a few glorious minutes that changed when Austin-American Statesman Sports Columnist Cedric Golden joined me. With Assistant Sports […]

Campus police are enforcing these new rules for football season to keep the fans safe while they enjoy the Saturday night lights. The University hopes these changes will create a fun and safe environment for game days. Sergeant Chris Cost, of the Crime Prevention Unit gives the […]
By Garrett McGinley Web Content Contributor Oh fall, that magical season when temperatures supposedly drop, foliage changes and we ritualistically gather around the television to watch young men in colorful uniforms suffer traumatic brain injuries in real time. The National Football League (NFL) has had a rough go of it lately with concerns about player safety, asinine rule changes, brazenly incompetent leadership, allegations of blackballing players for political beliefs, mass […]
By Garrett McGinley Web Content Contributor As I sat at home Tuesday night, half paying attention to the MLB All-Star Game, a thought came to me that I couldn’t shake: Austin doesn’t have any professional sports teams. Now obviously I already knew this, but I had thought about how odd it is. How could the 11th largest city in the United States not have one pro sports team to represent […]
By Garrett McGinley Web Content Contributor Believe it or not, the World Cup ends this weekend and the results thus far have been… interesting. My expert analysis up to this point has been a little shaky. In my defense though, my knowledge of the beautiful game is nominal at best and turning to me for guidance was frankly misguided. So far, 24 of the 32 teams have been eliminated, the […]
By Garrett McGinley Web Content Contributor One of most prestigious tournament in sports, quite literally, kicks off June 14 in Moscow. I’m talking of course about the men’s World Cup. The 32-team tournament to determine which nation has the best soccer boys is a rare exercise in nationalism that doesn’t always end with bigotry and xenophobia. There are a few notable absences from this year's competition. Mainstay contenders like Italy […]
By Reily Chestnut Assistant Sports Director What could’ve been a tough night for any mid-major school taking on a top-15 program turned out to show just how tough a mid-major program can be. While the final score reads 7-5 Texas A&M over Texas State, I feel that this night still proved one thing...these Bobcats have some claws. For instance, the team jumped on the Aggies’ starter early and with the […]
By Alexander Haynes Sports Reporter After several weekends of suffering from incongruent hitting, complacent at-bats, and late swings in the dirt, the Bobcat baseball team finally arrived into this weekend’s play with a resilient determination to bounce their way back into competition. Sweeping Georgia State was the only option to find a competitive groove in the 2018 season. Extra innings and the batting lineup being surprisingly resilient on the day […]
