Cougars score 10+ in fourth straight game, sweep first series
Â
After clubbing multiple home runs in three straight games, the Cougars (11-4) plated double-digit runs without hitting a home run for the first time this season. All nine starting hitters recorded a hit in the game with eight of the nine recording a hit and an RBI.
Houston had not scored 10+ runs in four consecutive games since April 2002 when the Cougars beat Texas A&M 10- on April 9, 2002 and then swept Memphis April 12-14 by scores of 15-1, 15-3 and 16-6.
Â
Houston scored 10 runs in the second inning on six hits which marked the most runs scored in an inning since April 8, 2023, at Wichita State.
Â
Ten different Cougars recorded hits in the game to aid Houston's run scoring in the first, second and fourth innings.
Â
Juniors Jake Tatom and Tyler Cox each recorded a pair of hits with Cox leading the team with three RBI.
With the sweep of Grambling State (4-10), Houston has matched its 15-game start from a year ago.
Â
NEXT UP
The Cougars will travel north to Huntsville, Texas, on Wednesday for the second game of the Don Sander Cup at Sam Houston at 6 p.m. before returning home to open Big 12 Conference play against Texas Tech Friday-Sunday at Schroeder Park.
