| Longview, Texas
- The Tiger softball team lost a
9-0 game to the University of Texas-Tyler on Saturday afternoon at the
LeTourneau Tournament. Trinity (2-9) managed
just one hit in the game, which was a first-inning single by senior
shortstop Jamie Williams. UT-Tyler dropped five runs in the second
inning to break a scoreless tie, then added four runs in the fifth to
invoke the run rule.
Williams actually reached base twice, also drawing
a walk in the third inning on Saturday. Kate Wright was 0-2 at the
plate, and also started the game for the Tigers. She gave up five
runs on six innings through four innings of work, taking the loss.
Trinity will conclude its part in the tournament
with a game against Howard Payne University later this afternoon.
The Tigers return home on Thursday for a doubleheader with Evangel
University. Sunday's doubleheader with the University of the
Ozarks was cancelled. |
