UH softball falls twice in doubleheader with Oklahoma

The Houston softball team lost both of their games Sunday when they hosted No. 2 Oklahoma at the Cougar Softball Stadium.

Game one was off to a promising start after UH’s first two batters bunted their way on base to set up redshirt senior infielder Sarah Queen’s three-run blast over the centerfield wall to give the team a 3-0 lead after one inning.

Cougars’ junior right-hander Rachel Hertenberger cruised through the first two Oklahoma batters before OU made their response. Oklahoma hit their own two-run home run and clogged the bases with a mixture of walks and singles, retaking the lead 5-3 over the UH softball team.
