The No. 4 Texas Longhorns are well positioned in the Austin Regional after winning the opening game against the Houston Christian Huskies 7-1 at UFCU Disch-Falk Field behind two strong pitching performances out of the bullpen and enough clutch hitting to take advantage of mistakes by the visitors.
Texas advances to face the winner of No. 2 seed UTSA and No. 3 seed Kansas State on Saturday at 7:45 p.m. Central with a spot in the regional final on the line. First pitch between the Roadrunners and Wildcats is at 6 p.m. Central on ESPN+.
