STEPHENVILLE, Texas – The UT Arlington Mavericks (7-8, 2-1 WAC) fell to the Tarleton Texans (11-5, 1-2 WAC) at Tarleton Baseball Complex on Sunday afternoon.
Â
The Mavericks used four pitchers on the afternoon, with Caden Noah (ND) getting the start on the mound and going 4 innings allowing 1 run on 2 hits and striking out 3. Bryce Hackett came in for relief of Noah to face his former team, going 3 innings allowing no runs and 3 hits. Zach Norris faced 2 batters in relief, while Connery Peters (L, 0-2) went the final 1.1 innings.
Â
UTA finished with 12 hits with Wilson Galvan leading the way, going 3-5 and driving in 1 run. Tyson Pointer finished 2-3 with 2 doubles and 1 RBI on the afternoon.  Garrison Berkley finished 2-5, driving in 1 run. Cade Sumbler went 2-4 and driving in 1 run while Ryan Black finished the game going 2-5.
Â
Following a scoreless first 2 innings, the offense started clicking in the third with Berkley driving in Sumbler. The Texans answered back in the bottom of the inning with a run of their own to tie the ballgame.
Â
UTA would escape some jams the following innings, leaving 2 Texan runners on the bases to end the fourth with a fielder's choice to the shortstop to get the short out at second base. In the fifth, the Texans would get a runner to third and attempt a suicide squeeze, but Hackett was able to make a play, flipping the ball out of his glove to Sumbler to nail the runner at the plate.
Â
The Mavs would plate 2 runs in the sixth thanks to a Pointer double down the left field line to drive in Black and a 2 out single from Sumbler to score Galvan. UTA would score 1 more run in the seventh off a Galvan single to score Black.
Â
Tarleton would go on to score 3 runs in the eighth to tie the ball game up before walking off the Mavs in the ninth.
Â
NEXT UP
It will be a quick turnaround for the Mavericks as they travel to Lubbock for a 2 game midweek series against No. 21 Texas Tech. Game 1 will be on Tuesday, March 14, starting at 6:30 p.m. and game 2 on Wednesday, March 15, with first pitch slated for 2 p.m.
