After losing in two nail-biters over the weekend, the Cougars (16-16 overall, 2-1 conference) aim to rebound against the Lamar Lady Cardinals (17-18 overall, 8-4 conference) in a doubleheader at 4 p.m. on Tuesday at home.
The Cougars are currently on a three-game skid. While they rank fourth in the American Athletic Conference in ERA, opposing teams are getting a decent amount of hits off the rotation at 141 in the season so far.
Starting pitchers Trystan Melancon (2.39 ERA) and Savannah Heebner (2.41 ERA) both dropped to 7-6 on the season after close losses (3-1 and 2-1, respectively) to the Texas Longhorns on Sunday.
