UH softball comes up short against McNeese in extras

The UH softball team dropped its game against McNeese State University 4-2 after going into extra innings at home Tuesday.

Graduate student Kenna Wilkey started on the mound for UH for what turned out to be a slow game at the start.

Both teams batted zeros until the top of the sixth inning, when McNeese’s Kaylee Lopez drove in the first run on bunt and later stole home to give McNeese a 2-0 lead.

Sophomore catcher Emma Robertson hit a pinch-hit solo home run and put the Cougars on the board in the bottom of the seventh.
