UH softball fell to Texas 6-4 at McCombs Field in Austin on Wednesday night.

McKenzie Parker started things off for the Longhorns with a solo home run to right-center in the bottom of the first.

Texas scored two more runs off two two-run home runs in the second. Junior pitcher Megan Lee relieved UH senior starting pitcher Kenna Wilkey in the circle midway through the inning.

The Cougars fought to make a comeback as senior outfielder Aspen Howie hit a double, paving the way for junior Britaney Shaw and junior Paige Hulsey to score, bringing the score to 5-2.
