NEED TO KNOW
Friday marks Houston's (10-9) first contest in five days after its midweek doubleheader was canceled due to COVID-19 issues at Prairie View A&M. This weekend also marks the Cougars' first four-game series since hosting Columbia in a four-game set from Feb. 27-March 1, 2015.
UT Arlington (8-11) is coming off a 4-3, 11-inning walk-off victory against Baylor on Tuesday. The Mavericks return 90 percent of their innings pitched and 95 percent of their strikeouts from a season ago.
Houston and UT Arlington have met nine times previously with the Cougars holding an 8-1 advantage. In the last meeting, Feb. 18-20, 2011, Houston swept UTA in a three-game series at Cougar Field. The games, and victories, were the first for newly hired Houston head coach, Todd Whitting.
