MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The Tulsa softball team defeated Memphis, 10-5, in the series opener, before falling in the second game, 5-0, Saturday in a doubleheader at the Memphis Softball Complex.
The Golden Hurricane (29-16, 6-8 American) scored early and often in the rain-delayed series opener, plating four runs in the first inning, and then adding single runs in the second and fifth innings, and two runs each in the fourth and sixth frames. The Tigers, meanwhile, scored three runs in the second and two in the seventh inning. The teams played a doubleheader Saturday after rain forced the postponement of Friday's opener.
