Lady Panthers tammed by the Lady Tigers

The struggles continued for the Lady Panther softball team as they took on the Lady Tigers of Texas Southern University in a three game weekend series in Prairie View.

The first game could not have gone worse for the Lady Panthers as they were blanked 14-0. The Lady Tigers scored four runs in the first inning, one in the second, and seven runs in the third to grab control of the game. The game was called after the fifth due to the mercy rule in favor of Texas Southern.

The second game unfolded in a similar fashion as the majority of games for the Lady Panthers as the Lady Tigers attacked early and notched a 10-1 victory.

Texas Southern used four hits and three stolen bases to score four runs in the top of the second to gain control of the game. The lone Prairie View run was scored on a RBI sacrifice fly in the bottom of the fifth. In the final game, the outcome did not get better for the Lady Panthers as Texas Southern tallied an 11-1 victory.

The Lady Tigers again used the stolen base to progress their offense as they used six stolen bases to take a 5-0 lead through three innings.

The Lady Tigers scored three runs in the fourth and sixth innings to cause a run rule shortened game.
