CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas --The University of Iowa softball team dropped a 2-1 decision to Texas A&M-Corpus Christi on Sunday afternoon at Chapman Field. The Hawkeyes fall to 2-3 on the season with the loss, while the Islanders improve to 2-1.
“We’ve got to execute when asked to execute,” said UI head coach Marla Looper. “To do that, we have to buy in. We didn’t necessarily have that today. We let them hang around.”
The Islanders struck first, plating a run on a double and an RBI groundout in the third.
The Hawkeyes scored their only run of the game in the top of the fifth.
