The softball team used a dominant pitching performance from junior Savannah Heebner to push their string of consecutive victories to nine games with a 2-0 win against the Texas Southern Tigers Wednesday in Memorial Park.
Heebner pitched a complete game shutout, giving up only one hit over the seven innings and striking out 12 batters. The Cougars are now 13-4 on the season, with seven of those wins coming by way of shutout.
The softball team has also outscored their opponents 74-27 over the course of their 17 games.
The win improves Heebner’s record to 7-1, and the shutout lowers her earned run average to 0.
