ARLINGTON, Texas – The UT Arlington softball team and North Texas battled in a pitcher's duel Wednesday night at Allan Saxe Field as the Mavericks came up short 1-0.

INSIDE THE BOX SCORE
UTA notched just two hits in the contest from Kenedy Hines (1-3) and senior KJ Murphy (1-3) who recorded her ninth double of the season.

Head coach Peejay Brun utilized two pitchers as junior Laura Henriksen got her twelfth start in the circle for the Mavericks and threw two innings allowing one run before being replaced by Hines.

Sophomore Hines went on to throw the remainder of the contest (5 IP) and did not allow a single run across 16 batters faced.

The Mavericks could not find a way to plate any runs across as Henriksen got the loss.

North Texas plated one across from a hit-by-pitch to take a 1-0 lead in the second inning.
Hines reached first on an infield single to tab the Mavs' first hit of the game.
