LAFAYETTE, Louisiana – The Mavericks' offense struggled throughout the weekend as UTA dropped its final game of the series to Louisiana 10-0 Sunday afternoon.

UTA, uncharacteristically, produced just six hits over the three-game series with just one run scored. The Mavs now sit on an overall record of 11-14 and 3-6 in conference play.

INSIDE THE BOX SCORE: Louisiana (L, 10-0)
Junior Reagan Hukill (1-2) was responsible for the Mavericks' lone hit of the game as she knocked a base-hit up the middle.

Freshman Jessica Adams earned the start on the mound as she went on throw 3 innings for the Mavericks. The right-hander allowed 5 earned runs across 17 Cajuns faced.

Sophomore Gracie Bumpurs relieved Adams in the circle and threw just 1 inning before Louisiana ended things in a 10-0 run-rule in 5 innings. UTA struggled to answer back giving Adams her ninth loss of the season.

PLAY BY PLAY: Louisiana (L, 10-0)

Louisiana got things started in their first at-bats as they put up 3 runs off three Maverick errors and an RBI-double from Stormy Kotzelnick.
Hukill lead things off in the third inning with a single up the middle, but UTA couldn't get her across. The Mavs trailed by 3 heading into the bottom of the second.
The Cajuns extended their lead 5-0 from an RBI-single in the second and a solo home run in the third. From there, 2 more RBIs made it a 7-0 game heading into the fourth.
Louisiana put up 3 more runs in the bottom of the fourth leaving UTA with some work to do as they trailed by 10.
UTA was unable to fight back as they fell to Louisiana 10-0 in the final game of the series.
