With the Texas Tech women's softball team making their first ever appearance in the Women's College World Series, one of the school's most famous alums was on hand.
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, both were in Oklahoma City on Thursday night for Game 2 of the best-of-three series.
Mahomes cheered on as Texas Tech's squad - led by National Pitcher of the Year NiJaree Canady - upset cross-state rivals Texas to force a decisive Game 3 on Friday night.
In the middle of the game, the husband and wife spoke to ESPN's Holly Rowe after Patrick showed his support by providing the team with shoes and varsity letter jackets.
When asked what made him want to invest, Mahomes made it clear that it was beyond just his affiliation with the school.
'First off, I love Texas Tech and everything Texas Tech is about. To have NiJaree here along with the other girls has been fun to watch,' the Chiefs quarterback said.

'I've always loved softball and watching it. I'm happy it's back in the Olympics and glad to have them here in Oklahoma City.'
Both Patrick and Brittany have heavily invested in women's sports - with Brittany, a former soccer player, serving as a co-founder of the NWSL's KC Current.
'I think it's just been incredibly... it's fulfilling,' Brittany said when asked about the pride she has in helping grow women's sports.
'As an athlete myself, I think there's been, I know, a bunch of passion and just talent and grit that exists in women's sports.
'Just being able in that position to spotlight this and show everybody how amazing women's sports is has just been a dream come true for me.'
The final game of the Women's College World Series takes place Friday night at 8:00ET.
