Ole Miss softball kicked off another weekend series of games Thursday in the Puerto Vallarta College Challenge. The No.15 ranked Rebels (4-1) took on the Texas Longhorns (3-3) in their first game of the challenge. This match-up was huge for Ole Miss in the challenge as they wanted to build momentum for the weekend.
Of course Ole Miss softball was coming off a huge 3-1 weekend at the Sand Dollar Classic in Gulf Shores. The Longhorns were coming off a 2-0 win over Rutgers in an earlier Thursday game. The Rebels relied on smart hitting and tough pitching to secure the huge 8-2 win in their first game.
