Cougars held to three hits for second-straight game in loss
HOUSTON – No. 18 UCF scored four runs over the final three innings on Saturday afternoon, defeating the Houston softball team 5-1 at Cougar Softball Stadium.
UCF held the Cougars to one run on three hits for the second-straight game while tallying 10 hits of its own.
The Knights (39-10, 11-0 American) struck first for the second-straight game, scoring via a two-out single in the third inning.
The Cougars (23-22-1, 7-6-1 American) answered back in the fourth on an RBI-double by second baseman Becca Schulte.
The Knights took the lead in the fifth inning on a base hit, added an insurance run on a sacrifice fly in the sixth inning and then added two more runs in the seventh inning.
UP NEXT
Houston will look to salvage a game in the series against UCF on Sunday at noon inside Cougar Softball Stadium. On Sunday, March of Dimes will be hosting its annual 3 ½-mile "March for Babies" walk across campus with the event scheduled for 9-11 a.m. Fans attending Houston Baseball/Softball's series finales should plan for the potential of additional traffic en route to the ballpark.
