Three-run fifth not enough to spark comeback
LAKE CHARLES, La. – The University of Houston Softball team dropped its midweek contest to McNeese by a score of 9-3 on Wednesday night.
Houston moves to 9-14 on the season, while McNeese improves to 11-18.
With two hits tonight, sophomore Paige Hulsey is batting .556 with a pair of multiple-hit games in her past three contests. Junior Kati Ray Brown joined Hulsey as those with two hits against the Cowgirls. Seniors Lindsey Stewart-Vaughn and Aspen Howie each collected a hit as well.
KEY INNINGS
2nd | The Cowgirls jumped out to the first lead of the game, plating a pair of runs off a fielding blunder from the Cougars.
3rd | A two-run home run from McNeese stretched its lead to 4-0.
5th | After Hulsey singled home Houston's first run of the game, Stewart-Vaughn placed a double in the gap to score a pair and trim the Cougar deficit to just two. McNeese responded though, as a two-run home run in the bottom of the inning pushed the advantage back to four at 7-3.
