Cougars seek to reach program milestone
HOUSTON – The University of Houston Softball team hits the road for the final time of the 2021 regular season, as the Cougars travel to Memphis, Tenn., for a four-game series with the Memphis Tigers April 30-May 2.
Houston enters the weekend series looking to reach a milestone in the program's history, needing just two wins to reach 700 all-time wins.
With the all-time series between the Cougars and Tigers dating back to 2006, Houston has dominated its matchups with Memphis, holding a 35-10 lead in the series. In fact, Houston has won 13 of the past 14 contests, including seven in a row. The last time these two squared up, Houston took the season series and won both games in Memphis.
