Behind two home runs off the bat of sophomore slugger Lexi Tarrow, No. 20/21 BYU softball rallied to defeat Utah Valley, 12-4, on a rainy Wednesday at Gail Miller Field in the Utah Community Credit Union Crosstown Clash.
“I thought we started slow, but I really liked the way our team responded,” BYU head coach Gordon Eakin said. “We stayed confident and I was really impressed with the total play of the game. It was all done in a calm, confident atmosphere even when we were behind.”
After falling behind 4-0, BYU (33-10, 6-0 West Coast Conference) mounted an impressive comeback, scoring 12 unanswered runs to defeat the Wolverines (12-21, 4-8 Western Athletic Conference) in six innings after the run-rule was put into effect on Tarrow's walk-off bomb.
