3/21/2021 3:34:00 PM | Softball
ARLINGTON, Texas – It was a pitching duel at Allan Saxe Field Sunday afternoon as UTA came up short 4-2 in the final game against No. 15 Louisiana.
Kenedy Hines and Allie Gardiner each had solid performances in the circle and kept Louisiana's offense to just three hits.
INSIDE THE BOX SCORE
Seniors, KJ Murphy and Aileen Garcia, were responsible for the Mavericks' three hits in the contest. Murphy recorded two hits on the day while Garcia smacked a two-out RBI double that plated Murphy along with sophomore Reagan Hukill.
Sophomore Hines got her ninth start on the mound for the Mavericks and limited the Cajuns to just one hit across 15 batters faced. The Spring, Texas native kept Louisiana off the board through three innings before the lone hit produced two runs.
Right hander Gardiner replaced Hines in the circle and went on to throw the remainder of the contest. The junior allowed two runs off two hits across 14 batters.
With UTA unable to get any more runs across, Gardiner got the loss.
PLAY BY PLAY
- Louisiana remained scoreless through three innings before a 2-run home run put the first runs on the board.
