UTA NOTES
  • Zach Henry is coming off back-to-back 3-for-4 games at the plate. He has finished with three hits in three of the last five games and leads the Mavericks with five games of three hits.
  • The Mavericks are now 9-1 on the season when they are leading after six innings.  However, when trailing, that record flips to 1-20 on the year.
