No. 13 Arkansas softball holds off Texas State on Opening Day

Courtney Deifel’s 10th season coaching the Arkansas softball team got off to a good start thanks to the Razorbacks hitting home runs and working out of jams Thursday night in San Marcos, Texas.

No. 13 Arkansas (1-0) hit 3 solo homers and never trailed during a 3-1 victory over Texas State on Opening Day at Bobcat Softball Stadium. It was the fourth consecutive win for the Razorbacks in a season opener.

Bri Ellis homered in the second inning and back-to-back solo homers by Kailey Wyckoff and Ella McDowell in the sixth inning accounted for all of Arkansas' runs.
