A proven winner with 917 career victories, seven College World Series appearances and a national title, O'Connor brings a championship résumé and national credibility to Starkville.

🔼 TrackTown Bound. Mississippi State track and field finished up competition at the NCAA East Preliminaries over the weekend, with the men’s squad sending a group of five athletes to next week’s NCAA Championships in Eugene, Ore., and the women sending three athletes!
