HONOLULU -- The University of Iowa softball team fell, 4-3, in eight innings to Texas on Thursday afternoon in Rainbow Wahine Classic action. With the loss, the Hawkeyes fall to 7-15 on the season, while Texas -- who is receiving votes in the latest top 25 polls -- improves to 17-5.
“It came down to finishing today,” said UI head coach Marla Looper. “We needed the same grit we showed yesterday in order to finish. It’s frustrating because we always talk about it, but it came down to the little things. We have to do those little things every day and in every moment.
