Houston softball went 2-3 in the Tiger Classic on Feb. 23-25 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Both Cougar wins came against Austin Peay State University, with losses coming against #7 LSU and Boise State.
Game 1
The Cougars started off the weekend with a dominant 10-1 win over Austin Peay. Houston took advantage of a vulnerable pitching staff that allowed ten walks, the most drawn by UH since 2020. UH kicked off the second with a two-runner homer from Graduate pitcher Shelby Smith, her first of the season. After a single and two walks the Cougars loaded the bases.
