Cougars slug way to 11-3 road victory over Bearkats

With a season-high four home runs, the Cougars cruised past the Sam Houston State Bearkats on the road Wednesday, taking the game 11-3 and improving its overall record to 7-4.

The four homers were the most hit by the Cougars in a single game since Houston hit five against Incarnate Word in February 2017.

Freshman pitcher Megan Lee, who ended with seven strikeouts, controlled the Bearkats offense as Sam Houston State remained scoreless in the first inning.

But the Bearkats came out strong in the second inning, scoring two runs to lead 2-0.

Senior first baseman Kelli Montgomery responded with a two-run home run to knot the game at two.
