Mavericks Drop Game One at Texas State

SAN MARCOS, Texas – Texas State's offense outlasted the UT Arlington softball team as the Mavs fell to the Bobcats 8-0 in game one Thursday evening in San Marcos.

INSIDE THE BOX SCORE
Senior outfielder Amber Langston paced the Mavericks' offense going 2-2 at the plate while third baseman KJ Murphy finished 1-2.

Senior JoJo Valencia got the start in the circle and faced just five batters allowing four earned runs before sophomore Kenedy Hines made an appearance.

Hines went on to pitch the remainder of the five-inning contest while allowing four earned runs across 21 batters faced.

The Mavericks were unable to get any runs across giving Valencia the loss.
