Jaguars spoil King’s pitching gem, bid at eighth win

SAN MARCOS, Texas — Texas State right-handed pitcher Meagan King did everything right during her time in the pitching circle Saturday afternoon, but South Alabama did just one thing in the top of the seventh that spoiled the senior's day as the Jaguars knocked off the Bobcats 1-0.

King, who limited the Texas A&M offense earlier in the week, did the same to South Alabama (20-12, 8-4) for the game's first 6.1 innings as she struck out nine batters — the most for the Barbers Hill product in a Sun Belt game and two shy of her career high — and issued only one walk while the Jaguars failed to score a run with her in the pitching circle.
