COLLEGE STATION, Texas – The UT Arlington softball team's overall record dropped to 0-3 after falling to Texas A&M – Corpus Christi 0-2 in extra innings. The Mavericks' second game of the day against Texas A&M was canceled due to inclement weather.

Saturday morning's game against the Islanders was a close battle as the Mavericks relied solely on the arm of Jessica Adams – who threw a complete game. Adams' solid outing held Texas A&M – Corpus Christi from scoring through seven innings.

KJ Murphy (2-4), Reagan Hukill (1-3) and Morgan Rios (1-3) were all responsible for the Mavericks' four hits of the contest as Murphy leads the squad with a .500 average at the plate going 4-8 over three games.

Freshman Adams got the start in the circle for the Mavs and went on to throw a complete game (8 innings) against the Islanders. Despite the loss, Adams had a strong performance on the mound as she allowed just six hits and one earned run.
