In the deciding third game of the series, UTEP softball fell victim to Southern Mississippi’s junior pitcher Samantha Robles once again, as the Miners lost 6-1, on Sunday at Helen of Troy Field. In the last five games, Robles is a perfect 5-0 when she’s on the mound against the orange and blue.
UTEP softball head coach Tobin Echo-Hawk said that the team’s bat hitting against Robles could be entirely mental.
“Hitting is a hard thing. Starting in the second game, we let one bad at bat dictate our next times at the plate and we just struggled.
