The Bears have qualified for 13 consecutive NCAA Regional berths and are making only their second NCAA Championships appearance in the Big 12 era. BAYLOR SUCCESS Priest s young squad received a much-needed boost with the addition of Michigan State transfer Payne Gniewek. The junior s addition paid immediate dividends, as the Bears enjoyed one of their most consistent fall seasons under Priest. Baylor posted five top-five finishes in the fall, including four consecutive fourth-place showings. Joakim Mikkelsen became the first Bear in two seasons to win an event, earning individual medalist honors at the 2010 Border Olympics. The Bears finished sixth at the 2010 Big 12 Championship and would later earn the No. 9 seed at the NCAA South Central Regional in Bryan, Texas.
