FAYETTEVILLE -- Sophomore Mary Haff tied a University of Arkansas softball record with 16 strikeouts Saturday as the No. 18 Razorbacks outlasted Furman 6-5 in 12 innings at rain-soaked Bogle Park.
After surrendering a run in the top of the 12th, Arkansas (29-14, 6-9) manufactured a pair in the bottom of the inning. Senior pinch-hitter Sydney Benz hit a sacrifice fly to left field with one out, scoring Kayla Green with the winning run.
"I think our team had a lot of fight in that inning," Razorbacks Coach Courtney Deifel said. "Furman's a really tough team, although their record may not reflect the team that they are.
