The Cougars defeated the No. 24 Wildcats in two close games, but lost the Sunday finale in a blowout.
It was Houston’s second series win of the season and improved the team’s record to 4-3.
“Good weekend against a team that I would not be surprised to see in Omaha,” said head coach Todd Whitting. “That’s a really good ball club, and they are very well coached.”
Close opener
Houston took the first game against Arizona this weekend 2-1 after a late-game home run and pitching heroics sealed the game.
Junior LHP Tyler Bielamowicz started on the mound for the Cougars and gave up only two hits in the six-inning outing, his longest of the season so far.
