Softball drops two at St. Edward�s University
In game one, UHV twice held 1 run leads but couldn�t hold on as the Hilltoppers won 6-2. Kristen Lindley�s RBI single scored Amber Scott to give the Jaguars a 1-0 lead after half an inning. The Hilltoppers answered with a run of their own in the bottom of the first.
�The Jaguars regained the lead in the second thanks to Jess Salas� single that scored Brittany Faas. The lead was short lived as St. Edward�s scored 4 runs off 6 hits and an error in the bottom of the third. The Hilltoppers added another run in the fifth inning.
�Game two was a classic pitcher�s duel. Hilltoppers freshman pitcher Diana Cezeaux pitched her first career no-hitter to lead the Hilltoppers to a 1-0 win. Jaguars� pitcher Lauren Garza tossed a 4 hitter and struck out 4 in taking the loss.
�The Jaguars will face their first NAIA competition this weekend as they travel to Northwood University in Cedar Hill, Texas for a doubleheader on Friday. Saturday they will face Texas College in Tyler, Texas.
